Same thread that's on GF.
I haven't really posted allot on here or at all, even though the car I am building is not a G it does carry a huge part of a G so I figured you guys would appreciate the build.
anyways here we go.
looks like we will have to weld up to the floor pan now as the firewall and floor pan extension are rusted through
Removing misc things like seat and the carpet
this explains my mold smell
What lies beneath
Driverside floor pan rusted at the seam
Underneath in same spot
Here little disappointing
Got the clip i was told just the engine harness was removed to find out that i guess that means so is the cooling,
luckly I know some one with the same trim level evo 4 so i can get wiring info.
Anyways pics
Crosses fingers that the engine will fit in the RHD model

Got the rad out and a few other things, its been dragging this week becuase of the freak snow storm we got on Tuesday.
Switched the Gas and trunk to the Right side. :D
So Got the cherry picker today And go the engine out. Also test fitted it in the clip to see what we would need to bend remove or move.
Just the basic beat in the firewall and move the brake lines up, but we encountered another problem. On my mirage the dump pipe was sitting up against the steering rack figured it would be okay sine the racks are just mirrored WRONG. The Evo rack is totally different from the mirage rack it only mounts the same in 1 o the 2 spots, so in other words im going to have to have custom Dumps made and a new downpipe so it will clear the steering rack.
Other wise its good
Best Oil filter you can get......
the test fit.
Oh snap :dancingnaughty:
It fits LOL Kinda.
So put a block of wood over the front of the proportioning valve and hit it with a sledge few times and BAM
Also bent the PS lines a little back, the only problem now is the Dump pipe it sits on top of the Steering rack were the steering column meets the rack. so i have to take the dump and have it cut and moved alittle then make a custom down pipe. no big deal.
what a little wax will do....
awesome car dude! I follow your thread on MPF too!!!
going to use those ralliart pedal covers?? lol :p

whoa definitely an interesting swap! There is a factory V6 Lancer of that shape, the CK6A MX Saloon with 6A11 SOHC 1800cc - I've been waiting for someone to plonk a 6A13TT into one of these!
hell yeah, you could come to our Foster beach meets in the summer since you're from MIchigan.Originally Posted by JDMFTW
Would be a drive but it would probably be a good one.

You are correct, it took me 17Months to track down a CK6A Insterment cluster with tach so i could have a OEM tach and have it function properly

When I feel like eating a banana, I like to go to the zoo, sucker punch a gorilla and try to run with a banana hanging out my bum. Then if I succeed, I enjoy my victory with said banana and a stroopwaffle.
