kulgan 1042 Report post Posted May 21, 2014 I must be getting a bit old. While I appreciate all the effort, skill and work involved in a project like this it's not really my thing. On the other hand my 17yr old son who was looking over my shoulder just about wet himself...lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh God, please don't tell me someone else has done this but propelled the wrong wheels? Certainly different from the usual SR/RB swaps that seem to go on, how much of a hassle was it adapting the E30 trans tunnel etc to accept the mitsi box? I bet the engine mounts would've been a proper headache too! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I bet the engine mounts would've been a proper headache too! lol no, but common swap for MIVEC and GSR Lancers, just leave them FWD instead of using full Evo running gear. interesting to know what mounts were used... L200 maybe? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
