Should I buy 98 GS?

[Slizz]

Ok so my friends girl bought a 98 GS and the guy that owned it before, supposedly bored out the block or did a bad rebuild and she paid 4k for it, well on the way back they were driving it over a pass, and it was boosting 25psi and threw a rod, so im wondering if this thing is really worth $1500, I haven't really looked at it, but they had 4 people with them, and everyone of them said it ran great before it threw the rod... i can get a reman'd engine from napa for 2600... but i just dont know if its really worth the money for a project car. Let me know what you guys think haha I think it is because the turbo, and trans are supposedly good, and the rims and interior are supposedly immaculate... Just want some more knowledgable input

Thanks guys! Much Appreciated!

I will update as I find out more stuff about it!


Also AWD Conversion possible?

4g64 only on spyder gsts and gsxs. The spyder gs and rs had the 2.4. Essentially a bored out 420a.

What the #### are you talking about?? First off, a a spyder never came in a gsx (awd) form. Second there was never a RS spyder, those were only gs and gsts. The gs spyder came with a 4g64, which was the 2.4l. The gst spyder was the was the 2.0l 4g63t. And last off, the 2.4 was not "essentially a bored out 420a". the 2.4l was a 4g64 which was basically a single cam, N/T, bored out 4g63, with a taller deck.

Stop posting bs info.
