Heyy guys. I wanted to start a new build thread.

After being out of the dsm scene for about 3 years and parting out my last dsm I knew I wanted to get back into it but wanted something different this time around started to look into shells and found a clean spyder shell across the boarder ( I am in Canada ) about 500 miles away from home, drove up there to check it out and bought it on the spot for a steal. Went back on the weekend to pick it up with a friend of mine and she is currently back home waiting to have a few things done to it. Goal for this car is to beat the current 10.4 for fastest spyder and still be able to occasionally street drive it. For this year going to focus on cleaning up all the wiring and swapping the car to awd auto having the sheepey manifold built and getting parts.

Here is some pics of my old car.

So far cleaned up the headlights and just tearing stuff apart A/C has been deleted along with power steering and cruise control just buying some time until I can pull out the motor and clean the rest of this mess.

looks real good ..... I always wanted to do a GS-X Spider build but since my last was a 99 GS-X i thought it only fair to build another 92 since when I built my first 1Gb there was not much in the way of after market parts ..... LOL the only parts and things around were DIY and a few places that built turbos for Starions/Conquest and would build you a 16g ..... anyways, great thread so far i will keep watching along
