the evo 3 swap parts are coming

most everyone know I picked up a 95 mirage for free a while ago.

any way parts are starting to come in so will have a good project for the winter.

the rear end subframe will be here in 2-3 weeks
the evo front clip in a week
have the hood,fenders on the car already
also have the recaro rear seat in it
have the tails for it already.

Were these parts hard to find or are they plentiful from over seas? Sounds like a cool project.

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming

finding the oem parts are a pain in the ass. I found 2 places that make a factory looking body kit for the car. But I wanted the oem parts sence I dont want fiberglass panels on it if I can help it.

I will be taking a ton of pics and a how to to make it all work if anyone elce would ever want to try it later.

Also I was surprised when I got the hood thinking it would be metal with the 2 heat vents and the air in take vent on it but it is a aulm it is a one handed hood.

I think the hardest part to find will be the front recaros seats.

Nice like the rear bumper falling off. What color are you going to paint it?

How much is this all going to run you? How do you plan on doing the RHD?

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming

the front clip is 2500 and compleat rear subframe 600 are the 2 biggest costs for the car. I am kepping track of it all

to make it rhd all you have to do is swap the fire wall form the clip to the car will work for any car out there that came rhd

Re: the evo 3 swap parts are coming

Those are the same rims? They're so narrow on the Lancers, seems like they wouldn't fill out the fender flares on an old EVO.
