RMR's kit won't help. It just removes the front axles on the Evo.

What Kid Lancer 7 uses to become RWD is really going to depend on what driveline he selects.

Sounds like you actually have a good attitude about this, most people freak out and act like dinks when someone suggests they might be biting off more than they can chew. Best of luck to you, hope it all works out.

This sounds like a very very very daunting task. Wont be negative (or realistic) but say good luck man. Based on the AWD 5G Mirage (the same orientation as the Lancer), that guy went thru hell and high water and tons of custom parts to make his AWD and that isnt RWD.

Bonne chance, buena suerte, good luck ..... all that stuff.

^yup, it's a shame really. but the reality is most people don't have the time or money to pull off stuff like this, if they did, they wouldn't own a lancer

+1 to being sick and tired of someone getting all hyped out and deciding to go ahead with something like this and thats the last we hear from them. I am one of those ppl that would love to do something unlikely like this but most ppl dont have all that cash to throw around.
