04 lancer with evo 6.5 tme swap
good to see its finally completed illuminati, lots of peeps have been wondering and waiting....haha
nice job, although sucks that its only fwd, weren't you trying to go awd? Is that where the shop was having the most difficulty or was it other aspects of the swap?
all in all, nice to see you got it done.

how i lived with out a car for 6 months well understandable parents who lend me a car at night and gave me lifts all the time to work hehe
price like i said call or email the garage
i would have loved it to be awd but didnt have that much money to make it atleast not yet.
biggest problems was the ecu the one that came with the engine was defective so we had to order a new one took a long time, wiring harness, basically finding some parts that was damaged or defective during transport but i will ask the garage what was the major problems and get back to you
thanks for the comments cars going back soon for 2 new thin fans itsreally hott in that engine bay, a 3.5 inch custom exaust, a bully clutch (might have spelled that wrong) and changing the breaks to all disc breaks, cf hood evo vented style hood, bodykit so i could redo the intercooler and piping and relocate the battery to the trunk so i could get some cold air. thats the plans for it all to be done before next summer

wow. Illuminati good job, you really did it. Congrats man.
Any chance of getting a full list of things you had to get, full list of what it took, and some reccomendations in case someone else in the USA wants to try?

Nice man. So many people were calling BS on this... I just stayed quiet and hoped for the best. Awesome that it turned out man. Nice work. Now go kill some WRXs at the track. Haha...

NOW THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT! Everyone saying...too much work, can't be done...bullcrap. If Subies and Hondas can do it, why not Mitsu (specifically the Lancer i mean).
CONGRATS BRO! That is a real big accomplishment.

Congrats on the swap completion. Who did it anyway? (Since you said to call them for pricing it might help people to know who they're looking for).
I guess I'm really more interested in the disc brake conversion. I hope to hear more of that when it's done.
