Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

last pic of the tank today. Also rockgarded the trunk floor and the wheel wells. I have a panel made for the floor already. I will also be making sidepanels and a front panel to make the trunk look a lot nicer when it is done.

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

God, i could cream myself over this project. You should keep a running total on what you spend. I'd love to do a similar project in the future but possibly on a different car.

When do you expect it to be ready?

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

I am keeping track of what I spend on this. it should be running in a few days just have to mount the tank and extend the wires to it and the fuel lines to it and rebuild the fuel neck to fit in the back.

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

Loving that fuel tank! Good thing it says "Gasoline" on the bottom, just in case anyone is a little confused!

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

Yeah, I like that too, and the handle on the side. Keep those, it adds a certain flair.

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

thanks
got the tank straps made,rebuilt the fuel fill aqnd breather tube,put in the bolts for the tank with the spacers. Got it all mounted in the car and put 1/2 gal of gas in it and it held in the tank so it is all good.

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

I was going to be lazy and post a congrats in the other thread. But I seen more photos here. Great to see it run. Now finish it up man.

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

man this car sucks, I could have spent that kind of cash on something more worth while. Like asian twins for your wedding or something, but seriously it drives quite nice, just a lil weird to ride on the left side.

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

How much was one front clip? (about).

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

Now a video of you driveing it.

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

Now a vidoe of you driveing it.

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

Can't wait to see the finished product! Looks great, I am having tons of fun watching it all go together. You just gave me a whole new love for evo IIIs.

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

the clips were
1. 2500.00 shipped from tx ((just the front clip)
2. 2800.00 shipped from ga (with the rear end and drrive shaft)

will get video when I get a 3in down pipe and make a exaust for it sence it is way to loud with just the stock down pipe on it now

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

got the 1g gsx brakes on the car with the evo turned rotors and the mirage pads. I had to mod to get the brakes on sence the stock evo calpers were junk and we were unable to get replacment mirage calapers.
what was done.
grinded on the brackets to get the mirage pads to fit better,made plates to move the location of the ebrake cable sence they were diffrent.

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

I don't know if I should call you lucky or skilled........both should be applicable.


Awesome job. :D

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

Man, this is awesome. Are you gonna drive it daily or what? Seems to me it's now much more valuable now as an evo than a mirage. I'd garage it for the winter if you can.

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

thanks
it is my new everyday car. Sence I am taking the talon apart and puting the 510cc and evo turbo set up on it so the wife can have the talon as her new everyday car

I also just picked up and got realy lucky on a oem evo III front bumper
http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o...oIIIbumper.jpg

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

Hot damn!

You need to go super JDM and get the offset plate bracket and some sort of carbon fiber lower lip extension. Or just leave it. :)

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

Nice. That bumper looks alot better than the bumper you have on there now

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

I will just use the bracket I have already made for the car that puts it the the right side hole. the evo III bumpers are the hardest ones to find sence most of them dont have the lower lip on them any more. There is a uk web side that
sells carbon lower lips but they are 295 uk

thanks

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

Nice!!!!! Are you planning to paint the bottom / floor boards and rear end to try to get rid of the rust?

Looks badass man!!!
Later,
Stuart

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

all the rust will be taken car of when it will be painted this summer

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

That is looking super nice...when can we see pics of that new front bumper on the car?

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

as soon as it shows up. should be here next week

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

Yites, that's a bunch of money. Stick with what ya got.

That rotor looks HUGE. Bigger then the guy standing there!

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

it is a up close pic of it and the guy is my dad and he is working on the brake on the other side of the car. they are a little smaller than 1g rear rotors

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

Ha, I know it was a joke. The way the picture was taken, it just looks funny~!

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

Several of us saw this car last night in person and MAN does it look sweet! I actually got to sit in it. The pics of the seats do not do them justice, they are very comfy and quite nice!

Mark, I forgot to ask last night, but is it going to remain wingless? Or do you plan on finding an evo-style flight device...

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming
 

Glad I got to check this thing out in person last night, great work on it!
