    Regardless, this would have been an impressive build for this platform. You just have to have a lot more money to do it right on the 3S, especially with the waning aftermarket.
    true. a dsm with 20k would run 9s for sure and so would a civic lol. sad but so true. but when it comes to parts, the 3s platform has it good compared to like a supra of skyline gtr. you have to have loads of cash to even buy the car/shell lol.

    i was gonna say... if they can fab a tube front end and a rollcage, i'm pretty sure they can fix any frame rust.

    Definitely, but who needs one like that? I mean really. Any reasonable person can understand the move to the DSM platform. They may be butt ugly compared to a 3S but you can't argue with the numbers.

    MUCH harder to set a world record for DSM though....the trails have already been blazed. if he'd kept going, he could have quite easily set some new 3/s records.

    There's nothing to work on. He parted all of it out. Unless he's going to put an English Racing Auto trans in it, a brand new motor, suspension, and body... it's gone. Body panels, engine, drivetrain, suspension, and etc... all have been sold. I've seen him lurk on this thread. Not one comment about the car kinda answers the questions... I guarantee he's building somthing fast just not his old 3S anymore.
