No prob, I am actually about to do a mirage to evo 6 conversion. I tried owning a Evo 9 MR after my Evo 5 and I just didn't like the 9. So hard was it installing the evo 9 trunk into the mirage? I might be hitting you up for info if you don't mind. I am in the market for a complete Evo 5 front clip right now, since I cant find a evo 6 clip and there aren't very many differences between the two.

Your right not much different. a few things like the front bumper, front Lower control arms.

If you can pick up a full front clip, and talk them down get a deal.
Yeah I have no problemo helping you out.


Is it hard to convert, well depends how lazy you are LOL. takes a lot of motivation to complete.

depends what you want to do as in a conversion too.

Well the block will be back this Mon. So should be running soon.

AWD may have to wait a little. bad timing. Insurance for me is a ***** already. I have to have special insurance due to it being a kit car RHD.

So the 2.3l kit I bought from a company on the east coast has arrived and was sent to a machine shop. Well the machine shop found out this company sent me a 2.4 crank but instead of 10/10 cut for a turbo evo motor build they sent me a 10/30 with aluminum bearings. This is for a NA motor.

So now I am going to send the crank back to exchange the crank for a 10/10 crank
I hope they exchange sense it was a mistake on there end. Not mine.

Been waiting a week so far to hear back from them.
