Re: What is it?

Re: What is it?

its a 97 gst spyder... white, i might paint it a different color but i am not sure yet, it has a black top and gray leather and interior. its a nice car but it will be better soon! i just finished putting the 10 pt roll cage in yesterday. it was a little over excessive but oh well, there is no way go get in the back seat without putting the top down! this car probably wont be driven a lot, not a big fan of having the top up so i will most likely only drive it on sunny days and at the track.

sorry to hi-jack the thread aves... why didnt you just put the motor in the Talon? wouldnt that be easier than swapping the drivetrain... or is there something wrong with the talon?

The Talon was a 95 with some body damage, so I would've had to do the 97-99 body conversion, plus reinstall the FMIC, rewire the fuel pump, put the interior back together, etc.

All in all, while it might have been a little less time consuming to just put the motor in the Talon, I would have been looking at body work to pay for on top of the labor time.

Plus this way I get to dissassemble the whole suspension, grease everything make sure the bushings are in good shape, replace any really rustly bolts, clean up the rear diff an control arms, and put everything back together in like new condition. Important stuff on a road race car.

Re: What is it?

So how did that transformation work out?
