me and EMonz57 have been talking aboutn this on a different thread, and i was wondering how possible this really is...making an AWD TURBO eclipse spyder GS....taking a GSX motor and tranny putting them into a spyder GS.. would this really be possible with "minor" modification?

 

Try reading this, I didnt read it in full becuase It is old and I remember it from a few weeks back fagely but im sure some ?'s can be answered in there https://mitsubishiforum.com/m_28110/...D/tm.htm#28120

 

i really wanna find out how 'costly' this wil really be...but ti think itd be amazing to have not only would it be turbo'ed it would AWD.. thatd be just plain sick (what motor is the GSX motor?)

 

with minor? NO WAY the whole front end is different on the GS from the GST&GSX but esp the GSX from looking under my GS-T i dont know where you would even be able to put the exhaust n the driveshaft. you would basically need to custom both front n rear drivelines n do alot of engine bay fabbing but as for minor no way, unless you can do ALL the work yourself to save labor your looking at one hell of a project. i was ganna try putting in my spare 4g63T in a friends 98 GS after his POS 420a spun a rod bearing. well after doing alot of reading n calling numurous DSM shops we just sold the car n he now has a 97 GS-X

 

do it if you love to blow money and get headaches
buy the gsx if you have intelligence(really just buy the gsx)

 

have you ever watched monster garage? its like that!

 

monster garage has more money than all of us combined on this forum... If you have to much money and don't know what to do with it then sure.. It could be a fun project.. But if your not bill gates then just go buy the gsx

 

aside from parts how much do you guys think that this would cost? Say he has the motor in good shape and the Drivetrain and wasnted to make an attempt at it

 

I would say somewhere between $9,000-$10,000.. But im sure you will run into problems that could jump it up a few more grand...

 

It would probaly be cheaper to buy a gsx and make that into a convertable. just a thought.
