Hi guys new to this so last year I began my Lancer GTS to EvoX AWD convertion it is almost done a few more mods and hard work happy to say it's been tough please don't ask why I own a EvoX and thought it would be fun to make a EvoX GTS hatch I will be posting pics soon trust me I've been working on cars a long time this has been the hardest and most expensive.

 

Sounds like an interesting project, how did car and project cost compared to buying an X, if you don't mind me saying

 

So far 10k in it by the time it's on the road more like 13k I have pretty much gutted the GTS to its bear bones and installed entire evo harness from headlight to tail light the tog hardest part was cutting out spare tire location and re-en forcing back half for rear diff

 

EvoX hart and soul in GTS

 

 

Total cost so far GTS 25000 bought new plus 10k so far as I said I know people keep saying I should have bought a Evo but already own a 2015 EvoX just wanted to build something different

 

what else would you be doing anyway, watching tv, great project, put some pics up of the finished project, theres also a project site in here too that you can get on.

 

I'm curious, I know the regular lancer does not have the widebody and wider track that the evo does. Are you going to modify the body of this GS to be wider as an X is ?

 

Just going to finish the GTS I will be posting pics and upload the finish product and as for the wider body it's pretty close on width as the EvoX so for now I will not be modifying it maybe later in the future.

 

This is interesting

 

Awesome project! I've been doing something similar converting many things over to Evo X stuff, but haven't tackled the AWD yet. Might go a different route there, however I respect and appreciate your effort here. Can't wait to see the finished product.

 

Somewhat off-topic but somewhat on-topic... how about doing this to a second-gen Eclipse and putting the CT9A Evo drivetrain into one, including whichever suspension bits would fit (if they could)?

 

what an interesting way to **** away a lot of money..

 

This is a pretty awesome project.

 

awesome project. differently will be unique
