AllI can Find are Lancer Parts. Good For some interior modules and Stuff. but Not all the Engine And Drivetrain. Just keep an Eye out for people parting out their wrecked evos. Thats your Best bet.

good luck finding wrecked evos......the ones that end up in the yard are usually stripped within the first hour......

This board (evom) is THE best used part source in the Nation that I have found.

prices reasonable
parts (usually) arrive as described (I have had excellent luck so far)
I have found things sometimes for hundreds less than a used parts dealer
the seller benefits as well (no middle man)

Obscure parts might be a bit trickey so look early and look often

I have also found "Club Friendly" dealership parts dept's to be very helpful on the more obscure items (cam angle sensor housing 30 bucks , serpentine belt tensioner 90 ish) but the time some of the yards mark newer parts up you aren't all that far from a brand new part, never subjected to unknown amounts of wear and stress.

Good luck

the car is still too new to find it in a junk yard really ... if you find 1, consider yourself very lucky

With a little more than a few thousand sold this year alone in the states, sorta a needle in a haystack.
