Hey guys! I thought I'd throw my build on here to see what u guys think. It's a 2002 Mitsubishi Mirage LS Coupe. I've had the car for a couple years now but I finally decided to go ahead with the build. After I sold my Evo8, I decided to start my Mirage build. Since I had a bunch of parts collecting dust I figured why not. I scored on a mirage parts car that the previous owner had done a bunch of stuff done on. So I picked it up and salvage whatever I could.

I'm not done yet but I'm awfully close. A lot of sweat, blood, and tears.

Removing and replacing the stock Mirage trailing arms with 04-06 ralliart. Sadly I won't be running Brembos for the rears unless I get a custom bracket made.

Started getting the motor ready to drop in. Don't be confused, that was the g64 eclipse trans I was going to used to stay fwd instead I picked up the modded transfer case so I can utilize the Evo trans.
