my Mirage project

[2002BlackDragon]

Hey guys, as some of you know I sold my 8g and bought a van and got a mirage for free. This post is fount to be about my progress on the mirage. Its a 1999, has a 1.5, and has just over 133,*** on the clock. I plan on doing the 4g64 swap and going dohc and going Turbo with a 5 speed swap to boot. And then going all evolution 5 OEM body panels to finish her out. I'm really hoping that since I am moving again I'll be able to start Modding the way I want to soon. I will have to take it to a body shop cause the trunk is a little busted in, so I guess it depends on how much that will run me first
Lol. Ill keep y'all posted.

Sounds like a fun project. The Evo V & VI are my favorite Evos. Going AWD, too?

I might eventually go awd, but prob not for a while... if ever.

[oakrdrs187]

The trunk doesn't look too bad.

nice pick up

I have to say it, the Mirage is Mitsubishi's civic, only vastly more neglected from the aftermarket

Don't forget to look up mirage performance and go their tech articles page. If you need mirage manuals lemme know ill look up the site that has them.

I've been on that Mirage forum that Denver posted a link to in your other thread, going AWD is a serious $$$ commitment in this platform, as you need the Evo trunk pan to do it right. Those guys seem to order Evo clips from overseas to the tune of $6K to get OEM panels, Evo AWD drivetrain and engine and body harnesses, the last being crucial if you do the RHD swap if you keep the Evo dash. Although, with a 2Dr, you may not have any recourse but aftermarket fiberglas parts for the rear quarter, i'm not sure. Either way, I'll be watching, I really wanna do something like this someday with a Mirage, I love the Evo 5's! Good luck!

If you don't have it also maybe get caps with Japanese passcode so you can look up part #s you need.

lol evo conversion done lmao

[QnzMostWanted]

sorry got carried away

[wetamup2k3g]

^^Wow! So there you have it, get to converting! LOL

[2002BlackDragon]

Actually, they only thing that I wasn't already watch on eBay was the front end conversion. I wish I had the cash now so I could get this. I guess that's my motivation to sell the dolphin, vr4 rear, cyber skirts, s7 gauges, and anything else I hae been hording. Lol

nice freebie, always liked the mirage. Was looking for a coupe before I ended up with the galant. I really wished we got the mirage cyborg over here, or even the FTO.

[Skyforger]

I'd kill to have an Evo V or VI.

Good luck with the project, glad to see TGC is still a bad influence with budget spending. lol

[2002BlackDragon]

Yeah. Lol. And the truck has alit of damage under the bumper. I'm hoping its not frame damage.
