--Not another Evo5/6 Project--

Came across a cheap mirage, after already having built one 2 door evo conversion for myself and helping multiple others with there own builds decided to build another one to as close to new condition as possible. Every single part on the car has been completely stripped rebuilt, refinished, or replaced. Its been about a year in the making but is finally done now except for a few minor details id post a mod list but i'll let the pics speak for themselfs car makes 392hp/355ftlbs 25psi currently on a 9turbo color is Dunkle Olive Green Met from a GT3, thanks for looking. I'll add more pics later

-Adam

First car




New car as it began






Some worthy parts for a seemingly unworthy car from japperformance






Some Before and After




















Closer to completion


















































Done (for now)




























Evo5 Spares for later (yes a spare trunk and spoiler to match)

That is an awesome revival that anyone can tell a ton of hours and hard work went into.

Looks like everything was done to the T, inside and out, and the RPF wheels give it a great stance! Keep up the great work!

Words cant explain how jealous I am of you right now. I would LOVE to do this swap!!

I am so tempted to sell my evo 9 and start a project like this. How did you get all the bolts to the new gold look?

There are no words to explain the amount of time, effort and attention to detail that went into that build. Well done and congratulations. Now enjoy.... :b eer:
