The awd sus will fit in the car. You need to use the oem rear springs on any awd shock that is good for 2in drop. For the front 90% of the guys cut 1 to 2 coils out of the spring with out the honda bonce problems.

If you want to go 4g63
90 dsm harness
Dsm tranny
Dsm 1/2 shaft
Mirage turbo axels. Dsm ones are to long
Any 1g tranny.
Turbo mirage front and rear roll stop mounts or mod dsm mounts. (I made the front one that did not come with the wifes car)
Tranny mount mirage turbo
Upper engine mount turbo mirage or mod a 1g mount.

I can go on about it but any way just ask me I will let you know what can be done on the cheap with dsm parts

If possible, put both cars in the same garage and do the swap at the same time!

ANYWAY...

The problem with the car is that it isn't the Turbo version so the motor mounts are going to be the hold up. I am probably going to have to make a couple but from what I heard some of the hyundai motor mount were the same as the turbo mirage. When I was at U pull I pulled most of the mounts off of the mirage and just have them in a box. Do you remember which ones work?

Where would be the best place to get the turbo mounts? Or just fab them up?

Other things on the list (trying to make it complete)

Shifter from a DSM? (currently a 4 speed)
Hydraulic clutch from a 5 speed? or can the cable clutch be modified?

I would love a tach in the car so I am checking all of the junkyards for one. However they are kind of rare...
