Good idea

[@UnknownUser_0000]

Work on it with Mat. That would be such a dope 3 way collab! 🎉

[@Carvania]

Swapping parts from one body to another is not a "chassis" swap. Thats just a drivetrian swap from one car to another. Those are unibodys with different vins.. why I'm I the only one bothered by this? Stacy David would agree with me lol

[@davidjames8505]

6:39 I learned that from Jafromobile

[@graffitiboy518]

Take both of em to This Vs That with Hoonigan

[@GearsandGasoline]

Wanna give a HUGE shoutout to Forced Performance and Artec, as you guys already know my string of financial tragedies precludes me from purchasing these things myself. Thanks to them I'll be able to break my drivetrain very efficiently.

[@tmotom]

bloody legends at artec mate

[@scrapheapshuffle9130]

Forced Performance are good folks with excellent turbos. Glad they were able to help out.

Haha I bet! Looks like a fun time!

As a DSM owner this series is amazing to see, first DSM video recorded above 480p im proud

[@Onewheelordeal]

Lol for real

[@MrJessegsx]

As a DSM owner for over 23 years, it was a dream to be able to take part in this project. Ben is the man.

[@Infrared-6]

Jafro vids are extremely up to par imo….

[@MrJessegsx]

@@Infrared-6yeah Jaffro does incredibly detailed and informative work for sure. This isn’t so much to educate but to entertain and just to have fun really.

[@darekmistrz4364]

Not a DSM MMC

[@ChrisWalksFast]

You assembled the Avengers of the DSM community

[@MrJessegsx]

😂😂

[@PrimalJinshaIttai]

At 11:20 when everyone showes up it just turns in a fever dream😂 especially the chinese new year part 😂😂😂

[@arphmd]

The longer video’s playing, the more you keep me introduced to ‘more’ DSM experts. I was like wtf do these guys come from?!

[@MrJessegsx]

Ha! Chris and I are from the Northeast. PA and NY respectively

[@arphmd]

You guys are awesome! Ben should be proud rather feels weird when someone randomly tries to help build his car. I’m Malaysian subscriber which 4G63 is a common build here, but not on DSM chassis😂

[@MrJessegsx]

@@arphmd I’ve actually known Ben for a little bit. We met in 2022 at the GridLife NJMP event. Super humbled that he asked me to be a part of this project.

Good news is the manifold was fine because the floor already fell off!

[@RetroMotiveAdventures]

Kenny is such a cool dude! Always sweet to see people so devoted to a chassis and the knowledge about them.

[@MikeStewardII]

So glad that Ben is going to do a chassis swap, he never keeps his roadtrip cars! Those DSM cars are pretty under appreciated and this is a nice change of pace.

[@Talynen]

I think it's a nice touch for sure. What I wonder though is where the DSM will end up in his garage. Wouldn't make much sense to have another 4G63 track car. So... Replacement street car for the Evo? But why use one with a 90s interior and worse luxury options when you have an Evo 9? And I kinda worry that his love for AWD 4G63 will push the S10k down the totem pole and I really want that car to get love and attention.

[@MikeStewardII]

The DSM can be Ben’s stupidly high HP street car with the Evo 9’s next phase probably being a completely gutted and caged track beast. I am really hoping for some S10K content soon as that my 2nd favorite car in the G&G stable.

[@yongling9825]

Doesn't Ben still have his Cappuccino?

[@randoawesomemix9501]

The DSMs are starting to go up in price now! 3KGT and eclipse GSX cars in clean, good running condition are selling for $7500-$25K

[@802Garage]

Ayyy it's my boy Chris, Lifesabishi! Glad Kenny addressed the "crank walk bolt" and clearly knows these engines. Fun stuff!

[@himynameiztony]

That could've been a 90 minute video and I would've watched every second.

[@mentals555]

Seeing Kenny like this makes his joke from the previous episode make more sense

[@uhhhwhatdoipick]

lmao ben's dad showing up is just icing on the cake loving the content, excited for episode 2!

[@Freeloves_Whipps]

This is what this community is about. Weekend swaps with the boys. Good vibes and good times.

[@MrJessegsx]

Ken’s the man. Been my guy for a while now. Helped us almost sweep an entire weekend at NJMP in ‘21. A head stud failure kept us from winning fastest time of day on Sunday.

[@Onewheelordeal]

Heck yes!!!! The Eagle Talon specifically was my dream car as a kid and I'm so geeked you chose that body

[@VS666]

nothing like swappin frames with the boys, great episode guys

[@lostmypicks]

I have been waiting for this day. Dsm's still deserve life. I'll love them till my dying day

[@g-mane7497]

17 minutes passed by so quickly. Love yalls videos guys.

[@OctaneStreet]

I love the knowledge and passion Ken spews out haha. Dope to see a bunch of guys who enjoy the 'dsm' platform come together to try and make this swap happen.

[@DirtyBullittPerformance]

Man, this is really making me miss my old 2GB Talon TSI AWD. These cars were a serious contender in the Northern Ohio street racing scene in the early 2000's. John Shepard inspired a lot of guys with his purple 1G.

[@supers0nic77]

Who was the guy with 750whp mirage 4g63 i feel like it was around 20 years ago

[@matthewmohri9990]

Kenny knows his shit and thanks for everyone else coming out it was a fun and educational video to watch.

[@Kenuwine24]

Preciate it

[@cory5197]

2G DSM is a car you never seen on the road anymore, I hope you fully restore this car and keep it running in good health

Awesome video as always Ben T and Ben L. This DSM is going to be street monster.

As a recovering DSM addict, this video is urging me to make bad financial decisions. I need to call my sponsor.

[@josephleprince536]

I used to have a 95 GSX that I had to get rid of due to underbody rust. A dream project like this was always in the back of my mind. I'm SO here for this journey you're on!

" Fully vaccinated with Tetanus." was funny af..got me out from my seat! Lol

[@timd1897]

I feel like this swap is going to be one of those memories you'll always look back on and just laugh and smile. "dam that's was an epic weekend" Also, I always wonder how youtubers convince these GOATs to just come and help on these projects.

[@MrJessegsx]

I will definitely remember this the rest of my life as an epic weekend of awesome. As far as getting us to come down, Ben just asked. We were all more than willing to come help and have a great weekend.

[@MrGsxr007]

Absolutely! Will definitely remember this!

Never did I think I’d care about a Mitsubishi but these videos have been so cool. I love how knowledgeable Kenny is on these engines too!

Love seeing the DSM get some love & happy to see it didn't get moved on. Makes me miss my two Mitsubishi coupes, 2001 Lancer CE (aka Mirage) and 1978 Galant Lambda (aka Chrysler Scorpion/Dodge Challenger). Wish we got Eclipse's here in Australia, only have the abomination of the Eclipse Cross

I am so happy to see this car being saved. When I first bought my WRX back in 2002 I saw these cars all the time and got roasted by many. Now I rarely see one. Nice to see this one getting the love it deserves.

[@cholmesg1]

This was and still is my dream car. I was sad not able to acquire one especially after the price hike from the F&F franchise. Still hopefully eventually I'll own one but watching this series with this vehicle is making me smile ear to ear.

[@johnnoob]

This was my dream car when i got my license in the late 2000s but my parents thought it was too dangerous. I still wish i could have one but theyre all so thrashed and trashed. Im so glad youre bringing this one back to life!!

[@nolanmarketti]

There were some serious vibes in this video. Awesome to see everyone coming together and having a good time.
