Here is a photo from the Ebay add.

This here is the photo of the parts car 6/4bolt 4G63

Zach and I messing with something, thats also my Sebring to the left

Money shot

Thats me next to my truck, on the way down to pick up the Mirage, Dexter's DSM tagged along, because afterwards he was heading to Chicago and I was heading back home with the Mirage

The camera's batteries went dead so you missed out on watching the engine come out. More photos will come tomorrow of the empty engine bay.

And the old 4G15

Nice! Ditto to what otter said. I'd like to see how this turns out.

Before I take the next big step, Im going to have to find a 2G AWD tranny, these are pretty hard to come by.

Dexter working on pulling the dash.

Me giving the bull horns, while removing the rear speakers.

Backseatless

This is me pulling the old seat.

Ride looks a little uncomfortable.

Progress looking good.

Someday you'll be tall enough to drive.

I need to start gathering parts so I we can begin designing the rear trailing arms/subframe so I picked up 2 of 4 rotors today.

New rotors 330mm x 28mm
Old rotors 235mm x 19mm

Last night we removed the rest of the dash and engine harness, removed the gas tank, and pulled the heater and AC out. So far total time is 37 hours.

If you look closely you will see me under the car, getting ready to remove the gas tank.

Fady is pulling the hoses for the heater core.

Gas tank removed, looking frontward.

This is after Dexter removed the AC, Heater Core, and Blower fan.

Engine harness removed.

I got some new parts today. This is the first set, we are going to be using them on all four corners. I should be sending them next week to the powder coater.

Sorry for the lack of up dates, but im waiting on my teammate Fady to get me some pictures.

Two days after they got shipped from JAPAN! Woot I got to ride on the forktrucks.

Test fitting the Evo2 bumper.

Removal of the rear trailing arms.

Shipped from two different members on the mirage forums, shipped different days by two different shippers. Both arrived the same day.
