1997 Eclipse Spyder GSX shell
 

I'm going to work soon, but will add more info later and pictures.

Sorry Mods, will post up vin soon. I'm sure you know I own this vehicle. Give me till tomorrow when I come back from work.

Run down.

- 1997 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder
- AWD conversion (fabbed and mounted by MAPerformance) with great shifting transmission, transfer case, rear end, etc. etc. etc.
- Has a spool, so acts like a true AWD system. Launches very hard.
- ACT 2900 clutch with heavy duty pressure plate
- Fresh synthetic fluids from swap
- Buddy Club lower springs. Rides nice. Not too soft, not too stiff.
- Comes with 3" downpipe to 3.5" exhaust to custom muffler 3.5" inlet, 4" out.
- No cat, etc.
- No power steering, No AC
- No rust, just a crack in paint so very little starting there.
- Maroon in color, tan interior.
- Have interior for rear, but was and currently gutted
- Has aftermarket black housing projector headlights and blue bulbs
- Clear bumper lights
- Comes with a nice OEM style carbon fiber hood with hood pins. No hood latch. You can install one if you like.
- Walbro 255lph fuel pump.
- Has black triple gauge pod.
- Has trim bezel for AFC
- Convertible top motors inoperative, have not check, didn't care
- It's a race/project car, so not perfect, but in good shape.
- Currently set up for a 6-bolt, will come with the harness that is currently in it.
- Brakes work perfect. Just a little rust on rotors from sitting all winter.

- NO SEATS!
- NO WHEELS, bring your own!

Optional equipment that can come with car for added price.

- Full 8 point Chromoly roll cage and base plates. Needs to be welded in, pre-bent. Was $600. $500/firm.
- Pair red Tenzo-R racing seats in good shape, with brackets and sliders for 2G DSM.
- AEM EMS with 3-bar MAP sensor, and AEM wide band.
- OEM RX7 16x8 rims and some Hoosier Drag Radials, needs spacers and longer studs for 2G, otherwise very little work for 1G. Rims and tires dismounted from each other. $500/firm. or sell rims seperately.

Asking $3000/firm for the shell, without the optional equipment listed above. Have lots of receipts to add over asking price for shell. AWD conversion was $2000 for all parts and labor. It was done nicely. Add the spool, clutch kit, etc. and it's quite expensive.

Or we can swap in a stock 6-bolt or 7-bolt with some goodies for $6000 more/less depending on what you want.
Prefer cash, but may consider partial trade for a clean 1GA shell.

For the right price. Can add a fully built 2.4L 4G64/63T dyno'd at 596 fwhp before FWD trans grenaded and 560AWHP with fuel limitation on E85. This set up is still in car and will start up, run, drive, etc. No wheels on car right now.

Just want to sell, because it's the wrong time for t his project now. We will keep the motor for future use possibly

I'm sure some have seen this around.

Any questions, feel free to ask.

Re: 1997 Eclipse Spyder GSX shell
 

Did you purchase this car from a guy in Fargo?

Re: 1997 Eclipse Spyder GSX shell
 

I'm not sure if he's from Fargo. All I know is that he was near the Bloomington area somewhere.

Re: 1997 Eclipse Spyder GSX shell
 

What's the status of the title? If I have my history correct, I know the old owner of this car from circa 2002 and the title has a theft disclosure on it.

Re: 1997 Eclipse Spyder GSX shell
 

Yeah, correct. Not accident...theft.

Re: 1997 Eclipse Spyder GSX shell
 

Hey can i see some pics u cAn send them to me if u want quadz4life30@yahoo.com

Re: 1997 Eclipse Spyder GSX shell
 

Bump for some pictures.

Re: 1997 Eclipse Spyder GSX shell
 

$4400 cash with a stock 6-bolt?

Re: 1997 Eclipse Spyder GSX shell
 

Sorry, too much work involved for $4400 with a stocker.

Re: 1997 Eclipse Spyder GSX shell
 

Well, I mean your asking 3k for it,That leaves $1400 to throw a stocker in....

Re: 1997 Eclipse Spyder GSX shell
 

hey, im sure it won't come to this, but if you part it out i will take the 97-99 conversion parts, plus prolly some more.

Re: 1997 Eclipse Spyder GSX shell
 

I'd like to not part with it. It's the whole chassis or none. As of the moment anyhow.

I prefer to not have to deal with piecing a motor, etc. and install for $1400.

Re: 1997 Eclipse Spyder GSX shell
 

Bump for Nice car and you should put up that video of the car when it was on the dyno. Seen this car around and it's really nice. Thumbs up for the AWD also. GLWS
