There's nothing at all wrong with doing a conversion. But you didn't do that. You put a body kit on a Mirage and put a huge "Evolution" sticker on the window. I didn't see anything in there about a 4G63 turbo engine or an AWD setup or a Brembo brake system. It's not an Evolution conversion without an Evolution driveline. It's a Mirage with a body kit. Don't get me wrong, it's a nice looking car, especially without the stickers. But trying to pass it off as a "conversion' is ricey. It's like putting VTEC stickers on a non-VTEC Honda or GSX badges on an Eclipse RS.

BTW, I have a Stealth Twin Turbo.

So is it street legal or is it "off road use only"? Last I heard, Evolution Imports had yet to legalize a single Evo. There's some guy in RI who claims to be able to do Skylines and Evos, but I haven't heard of a single person with a legitimate US legal conversion on an Evo.
