- Bought it for 1k in 2026
, running and driving with only 115k miles (odo swapped by previous owner but I have it). Wanted another dsm since I had poor luck with previous ones (5 others). Now in a better spot in life and able to properly build a semi dream eclipse. It's not a gsx but it's a DSM so I shall take care of it instead of letting it fall in the wrong hands. Plan to continue restoring to former glory, very few things needed, the soft top and convertible frame being the main problem atm. Once everything is fixed and all preventive maintenance is done, I plan to swap a 4g63t head on my 2.4 4g64 block and be done with no more than 8-12 psi of boost. I intentionally want it a bit more peppy than stock but nothing crazy as I WILL own a gsx one day and hope to make that the fast one. I just want to preserve this Spyder for what it is mostly and have a super clean OEM+ build that has some oomph.
