Hello all, i just got 2001 lancer evo 7 it has 81,000miles on the clock and is completely stock. it is my first experience with 4x4 vehicle , my previous cars were 2012 shelby gt500 and bmw e60 m5. my car is right hand drive and first i want to convert it to lhd with what i will ask you for help , if someone has done it can you please tell me what parts do i need and where to get it from , i live in Republic of Georgia and 90% of lancers and other japanese production vehicles here are rhd because they are very cheap and so there are no parts for me to buy it local therefor i will be buying all parts in US , any help will be appreciated. Thank you

 

Be careful buying parts from the US:
1. Evo VIIs were never sold in the US. We had to wait for the VIII.
2. Not all LHD USDM parts are the same as RHD JDM parts.

Conclusion: if I were you, I'd get my parts from Japan.

 

Most all of the parts between a 7 and the 8/9 will be compatible. If they're drivetrain or engine parts I'd stick to japan, but suspension arms, coilovers, brakes, body panels, etc., etc. should all be compatible

 

Most, but not all. And remember, JDM car will also have things like AYC that differ from its USDM cousins. Other things will be different from LHD to RHD.

If you don't have a source for JDM parts (and knowing how many JDM vehicles lurk the former Soviet Union, this sounds like a business opportunity), I'd buy UKDM parts.
