There were better jobs available and more money for hobbies back then. Most of the shops that specialize in these cars have closed down or gone corrupt. People don't have the money to build cars over and over due to f'ups by friends and new amateur shops. The only fast cars out are from those who are doing well and still have the money to play, this raises the bar for the type of cars that are out. Evos,supras,bmw,gtr's, etc... Dsm's are beginner turbo cars now, and beginner money just isn't out there anymore. I myself have an evo on a dsm budget, so when it breaks it stays broken for a long time.
Sucks but it's the truth.
