o no Doubt! yeah i'll be Praying to be around this summer. i really want to hit up the DSM meet in April!

Very nice. That is how I bought my 98 spyder new as a 2.4 auto.

Why not just have gotten a manual shell and save some time? They are really easy to come by and pretty cheap...

Then keep the 7bolt 2.4L, throw on a 7 bolt turbo head, awd.... muahahahahahhahahahahahahahaha

it wasn't really that hard to convert. i bought a donor gsx manual. used all of those parts for the swap. juust another thing to add on my list of things i've done

ok so it has been a WAY long time since i have updated this. but the car is up and running. the only problem i have run into was leaking oil pump gasket and the transmission axle seal on the passanger side. other then that everything is working great!!

Why did you bump your project thread?

Neat project.

You should get Evo Brembos!

Looks good man! I agree, get some evo brembos, I can hook you up with some too

You should get this thing done so someone actually drives their awd spyder other than kerry when he had it. I love the white with black top
