Yeah, that used to be AdamJ's car. He sold it to Archie. That's the one I meant.

New battery with custom tray and intake reroute. Battery location is perfect for my 4G63 swap.

You should buy or fab up some heat shield to go around the filter to block the engine heat.

^I will do that once the 4G63 is in and the final revision of the intake is built. (probably not from Spectre LOL)

Awesome build so far but ever think of going wingless or doing a bigger wing?

An Evo IV conversion wouldn't be complete without it's awesome trunk and wing! This is going to be painted soon hopefully and it will complete the rear bodywork.
Already have the Evo IV oem rear bumper and lip as well as the oem Evo IV tails installed. It's not in the pic, but I have the EvolutionIV badge as well.

Got a couple new bits. JDM Evo 5 fuel tank! Pump and sender were removed and I'm working on cleaning it up a bit. Some rust removal and a repaint are in order.
Also, planning to rewire the pump with 10 gauge wire and the stock Evo 5 pump will be sold and replaced with Deatschwerks' new 300lph pump. This tank is one
of the last major parts I need to begin my awd conversion. All I need now is a rear floor cut and a few small items like rotors and brake pads for the rear Brembos.

Also, picked up a new amber lens to replace my broken one so the car now has JDM Evo 4 amber sidemarkers:

Thanks, it's something to do lol. Once this tank goes together, I don't want to have to take it back apart again. The seals are JDM only pieces I think so I will probably have to make them.

Alright so I found out that the Evo 5 fuel pump seal and sender unit seals have the same part number as the 90-94 DSM sender unit seal.
Glad they use the same parts for multiple vehicles! Got two of them on order from STM and impulse bought their fuel pump rewire kit as well.
