I will paint the other car when I am done working on it not before. But I will be using the same paint on this car to see how it works before I spent the time and money on the evo.

the tranny would have to be a 2g tranny

Sweet! You could just mod it to get ridiculous gas milage!

My front seats in my 1G should be coming out here sooner or later. I'd let you have em fairly cheap if they happen to bolt in there.

Re: just got a new winter car 95 mirage coupe
 
I thought you were gonna use the 8 booster and master in the evo? Why not use the 3 booster and master in this car?

Re: just got a new winter car 95 mirage coupe
 
cause he's big and gay

TkrPerformance 10-04-2008 05:31 PM

Re: just got a new winter car 95 mirage coupe
 
because the evo III and evo 8 booster and master are the same sizes. Also i dont want to rebleed the clutch in the evo. because the master on the 8 the resvore tank holes are longer then the 3 so my top will not fit on the 8 master so that was the end of that swap
