Base lancer to Evo parts Compatability thread
i know there is a compatability thread for lancers and mirages, but nothing for the evo. there are SOME parts that fit, but most do not. here is a list of what i could come up with that works/dont work with a little explanation.
THIS IS A REFERENCE ONLY, I DONT TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY IF SOMETHING IS DONE WRONG OR NOT INSTALLED PROPERLY!
WORKS:
turbo - will fit with custom 4g94 mani (a few mani's floatin around the threads here and speed corps used to make them)
stock intercooler and intercooler piping - for the intercooler,remove the front rollers and use the 2 outside bolt holes. for the piping, holes are there and threaded already if i rember correctly.
aftermarket intercooler and piping - depends on size but will probably reqire cutting stock bumper to make fit for the intercooler. for the pipes may require like the AMS small battery kit (ie. the greddy pipe setup or AMS). the set of injen pies will work as well with the stock evo battery tray. here are some pics and some info on what to do to make them fit like a charm!
https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/7549710-post230.html
battery tray - right by where the stock air cleaner would sit by the transmission mount on the drivers side. the holes are there and tapped already
radiator - heard that it fits but dont know the up/downsde to actually running it.
trunk - uses all the same bolts and lock assemblies. nice if you find an evo wing and dont want to fill the holes in your trunk form a stock lancer trunk with factory spoiler.
radio relocation kit - most of you know this already as for we have gauges where the stock radio sits, or are running a dual radio setup.
gauge pods - a pillar, steering column, radio relocation (see above). basically if you can mount a gauge in an evo you can mount one in a base model.
turbo timer w/ harness - splices right into your ignition system with a harness from hks or others.
spedometer cluster - direct drop in from where ours sits now.
399 mass air flow sensor - works if you know the values tobe put into ecuflash and you have the cable to reflash the ecu
front shock and struts - direct bolt on from what i hear. not sure of the benefits but have heard they do work. from 03lancerES: the only way for the ES (except for the 06 style es's that use the same suspension as the oz's and ralliarts)models to utilize this is by using the front strut mount from an OZ which is bolt on then you can bolt on the evo's
evo 8 ecu - requres a reflash cable, ecu flash and a lot of patience. once in and working opens up tuning capabilities for turbo setups.
stock and most aftermarket down pipes - works with evo turbo and o2 housing setup.
stock interior - seats, door panels, center console, evo 8 steering wheel, dash, trim, vents(if i missed something please let me know)
steering rack - tighter ratio
evo mr aluminum roofs / AMS Carbon Roof -
evo rims - can be used on lancers with a 5 lug hub or have done a 5 lug conversion
rear calipers/rotors - work on disc brake models
body trim - posted by turbotime - can mount or be mounted to the lancer chassis
glass - posted by turbotime - includes mirrors and all glass are swappable
front strut bars - hood latch - uses all 3 of the same bolt holes as the base lancer. works great if you have done an evo 7 conversion to the front and want to put some nice mesh in hte grille.
evo fuel pressure regulator - will have to bore out stock or aftermarket fuel rail a bit to make it fit.
Evo MR Vortex Generator - if the roof will fit this will as well. can get authentic mitsu or aftermarket.
DOES NOT WORK
4g63 - will not fit WITHOUT a lot of work and a lot of money. if your going to put that in, you might as wellhave bought the evoin the first place. this is a VERY touchy topic here on the forums
manifolds - differnt distance on runners. close but no cigar. requires a welder,and some creative injenuity to get the ports tomatch
driveline - differnet slpines and longer i believe
rear shocks and struts - dont fit, differnet configuration
front brembo calipers - posted by turbotime - wont fit to lancer hub
sway bar - posted by turbotime - end links are different
window and lock regulators - posted by link62
rear strut bars - [QUOTE=link62;7614105]they wouldnt work since the evo rear struts are higher then the lancer/ra's
if i have forgotten anything and/or gave wrong description please let me know. this is just from what i can pull from the topof my head.

i figured it needed to be done sometime and since ive been on the forums here i havent seen one.
it offers a lot of good info (pending im thinking right) for people who are new to the forum and want an evo but have a base lancer.
hopefully this will help everyone.

I'll add some more.. Not sure how in depth you want to make this but all of the body panels can mount or be mounted to the lancer chassis (see my link)
all of the glass is swappable, mirrors as well.
I'll also add to your "wont work list"
Front brembo calipers wont work on lancer hub/knuckles
pretty sure front sway bar wont work since the evo end links are different.
