so you bought a shell for $3500. Good luck on finding a new engine.

Hope you can continue on that 4g63 build.

The engine and tranny will be exspensive. What is wrong with them, or did the person pull it out because i noticed there is no intercooler.

the tranny comes with the car but the housing is damaged however he agreed to give me another tranny but the gears are not too well in it so basically I am getting 2 trannys to make 1 as for the engine I already have the head from this project so all i need is a shortblock which i spoke to my supplier and he said it's 1,000 bucks for it not bad for having an evo up and running for under 6 grand

That evo body looks super nice I'd do the same. Really nice work on the project but Now you're dealing with the real thing like you wanted.

^^ true and it's for a really good price the ineterior also is super clean I don't think am gonna have any doubts about getting this car even though I will be missing my lancer very much maybe i'll repaint this car the same color as her.Oh yeah and also the reason i'll be having to sacrifice the lancer is because i'll be changing the VIN # since I can't get insurance on the evo for another 2 years

It is a very good price. idk if i would buy it just because of how far i am into my project haha. So are you selling yours current project to get it? because if it is disassembled like the recent pics showed you wont get nearly what its worth. I would keep it so you still have a project race car and then drive the real evo as an everyday. My opinion.

yeah it's what i plan to do because like i said I am planning to remove the vin numbers and put them in the evo if insurance won't insure me onto the evo my lancer has been insured with them for almost 5 years so they don't inpect it when i go to renew my policy every year.

to answer your brake question, the to lines coming out of the master cylinder are front and rear. This is very important when hooking up the abs motor, because it also acts as your brake bias control, and your perportioning valve. nice work with the evo, alot easier to to work on rather than changing everything over.

EVO = DAILY DRIVER
LANCER = TRACK CAR

Strip it lancer for less weight and keep slowly building it
