nice.. dont you have to swap out ecu and all this. I know one guy did it but never came back and posted pics or exactly what he needed. You should post all parts needed and such.

I did the swap and you need the ecu. Don't compare the hondas with mitsu. I can sell you the manual ecu and harness for cheap.

^Even auto hondas used different ecus. But they're easily converted internally... Buy this man's product if you ain't got them yet!

And you don't need a new ecu for eclipse/galant so i would immaging you not having to need it for the mirage either, but i can't be 100% positive until i see the wiring diagram.

Maybe but i doubt it. If I see the factory service manual I'll tell you exactly if you can make it work or not. Really the only thing you have to do is connect the 2 neutral safety switch wires together to get the car started and everything else will work just fine. Mitsu ecus are allmost the same, so this should be pretty close.
