Brad got ANOTHER 2g
 
For some reason I can't seem to get away from DSM's. I picked up a 1998 GST spyder this past weekend (3/2/13) out in Fargo. Car is pretty clean for being a '98 dsm and had a few basic things done to it:

6 bolt
FMIC
Greddy BOV
Some sort of intake
Ebay 16g
Came with an electronic boost controller that wasn't installed and will probably sell for a manual controller
Full exhaust
Little catch can setup
880's
DSMLink with old school laptop
Guessing it has a walbro in it as it wines pretty good
Smoked turn signals
Carbon fiber ricer tails - already replaced with stockers thanks to Chris

Car still has ac which seemed to work really well, heat, power steering, radio and working cruise.

No real set plans for it but things I definitely want to do
Lower it - springs or coilovers depending on what I can find a good deal on
Paint driver side door handle
Would like to get it tinted. All cars look better with tint
Thinking of installing a hitch on it to tow my bike to the track
Get a real turbo on it - again really whatever I can find a good deal on

If I keep it longer than a few month I'd love to eventually put a mid sized turbo on it, cams, maybe even an awd swap at some point but who knows.

If I have money when I see another 3065 pop up that'd be my first choice. I loved that turbo.

Thanks Mark! Did you ever have problems with those two bars bending on your car? I found a company taht makes upgraded bars for like $70 and seems like a pretty good deal.

This thing will be gone by winter time. Car needs bigger turbo and spray.

My bars have bent a few times I just bend them back so far. If they brake I will get the ones from the FL co.

Nice spyder!

I have those bars because mine bent. They have held up intil this year. The cable on the bar snapped. Have not looked into it yet tho.

I had to replace that same type of bar on my M3 last year, must be pretty common across convertibles.

Welcome to the club. Top down is the way to go!

Nice! A twin of mine although mine is a 97. The link on these top are soft and mine have bend two time using the one with the cable. I just bend it back and will probably replace the top, link and whatever needs to be replaced.
