Default Did Mitsubishi ever make an Eclipse GSX Spyder?

If not, has anyone swapped out the GSX drivetrain to make the droptop AWD?

Thanks

This is news to me. As far as I know there were never any gsx spiders made available from mitsubishi. And I hear the conversion is a summa bitch.

I found this, but it looks like he did the conversion himself.

I'm thinking of going this route instead of a 240SX
