Yesterday I saw an 96 eclipse spyder, there was GST on the back, but when I looked at the dash, it didn't had a Boost meter for the turbo like my 98 spyder, who can help me, is this spyder a turbo or not????????,

please help me !!
 
Best way is to pop the hood and check it out. I bought reverse glow white faced non-turbo guages (cluster) for my Spyder GST simply because the stock boost guage is worthless and I put the extra guages (ie boost) up on my a pillar mount. So the only way to really see is to take a look under the hood
 
or look throug the front at the pass side for a side mount.

i have yet to see the elusive 2gA spyder in person.
 
I see the elusive 2ga spyder everyday (I own one). The antenna needs to be shaved too...
I did a 2gb conversion though, so it's only a 2ga on the inside :shhh:
 
pop the hood or listen to the car. the factory "boost" gauges are pointless and most people cover them up when they get gauge faces. there is one around here i see him on the highway alot. a mexi melt guy drives it, its obv an rs, he rocks steelies a super fake gsx wing gsx badges with an apc windsheild bannerhmmm.... its an auto he lined up with me one day i saw gsx and went oh shit, i looked at the car steelies hmmmm apc hmmmmm mexican yeah that shit is fake i have a vr4 with some bolt ons light turns green he neutral bombs it ov the revv limiter LOL it hardly chirped the tires i didnt even waste my time on that pos. it was funny i am trying to get some pics of it to post its prob the fugliest piece of shit i have ever laid my eyes on
 
i understand this is an old thread but why is warmachine91vr4 talking about mexi melt and mexicans like thats all mexicans drive?theres alot of mexicans that do race turbo dsm's the galant has always looked less impressive than any eclipse i think mitsubishi gave up on the galant along time ago.ive seen alot of white people with dodge neons with body kits and a wing that belongs on a jet but dont blame the race just blame the knuckle head driver, can we stick to the thread subject?:dsm:

I have never heard of a spyder with AWD!! all spyder cars come with automatic transmission and a small 14B turbo.

sure the guy is putting a tag GST only or he has made a conversion to GST but I think not coz it will cost him the price of a brand new real GST.

Well none of them came AWD fro the factory, but there are many of us who have converted them to AWD.

An no they all didn't come with 14b turbos, they had NT cars, and the GSTs were t25 cars.
 
They're not all automatic either...or do I have the strangest automatic ever :confused:
