Mitsubishi MIRAGE Conversion to a 2 Door EVO
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 лип 2024
- Would you take the time to convert a Mitsubishi Mirage into a 2 Door Mitsubshi Evo 8? Well join Nadine as she speaks with the owner of this crazy modded stanced Mitsubishi Mirage, who not only did that but modded it to compete as an Evo time attack build. Archie, the Team Hybrid Nevada Chapter Director, walks us through all the performance tuning he's done upgrading it from stock at 91 wheel horsepower to 800+ AWPH!
In order to race this Time Attack build, he was able to shed 10% of its weight. Under the hood, he's got a 4G63 motor from a Mitsubishi Evo with a billet crankshaft, and forged pistons and rods as well as a Sheepey top mount turbo kit. The Mirage is usually a 4 door, but he cut out the rear floor of the car and put in the rear floor of an Evo. He also converted the Mirage to an all-wheel drive by ordering a full wide body Varis kit for a Evo 5/6 body style so it's for a 4 door Evo and reengineering and re welding the back and reinforcing it with strut bars and a roll cage.
He's also got nice carbon fiber accents throughout the interior with rare Recaro seats and a steering wheel signed by a WRC Champion.
What's it like to owning this beast? Well be sure to download the Throdle app to follow Archie's build @2dr_evo and other JDM car crews like Team Hybrid car club @teamhybrid

I love how people always hate on mirages but these are one of the top japanese cars when built up
Yeah. This one is an incredible build too
He spent more on mods than the car is worth so im not too impressed. Its a one of a kind car and looks amazing but not worth the price
@@akselcapuri who modifies a car for profit?
I would understand if it's to flip a car for profit but everyone knows that when you modify a car almost always the car is going to be worth less than a stock one.
Building a 4g64 2dr a/n street car
Because this isnt a mirage, its a CE lancer coupe.
Im probably gonna build a mirage conversion evo just for fun
Do it!!!
That's one awesome conversion... A unique piece right there. Great build 🔥
Thanks for checking out this video! Glad you love Archie’s build. You can follow him on the Throdle App to find out where he will be next!
That car is sick I've wondered if this swap/conversion has been done this was a good example of a finished one I would love to see one being built to learn more about the process
I wish I found this vid when I owned a Mirage a long time ago! This build is badass!
I own a Mirage as an daily. I'll admit it's not a bad idea. People forgotten how well the aftermarket support still exists for the Mitsubishi line up from the 90's through the early 2000's. It's something different and something fresh to see people taking advantage of the Mirage platform. Technically the Mirage that was sold in the U.S. is nothing more than a base model Lancer that's rename in the states. True Japanese quality and affordably. All build's can can turn from a dream into a reality if that individual put there mind into it. Awesome build overall!
❤️
This is an amazing build, I love it!
Archie’s done amazing things with it!
My first car was a 99 Mitsubishi CJ0 Colt, I then bought my Evo IV which didn't come with any floor mats, seeing as I still owned the Colt I thought I try them in the Evo, they are a perfect fit.
The engine bay, & lots of other points on the Colt chassis are able to take Evo parts without much fuss.
Ralliart Germany even made an official Wide bodykit for the Colt, look up Ralliart Colt SR4X.
No way! Will have to take a look at that. Thanks for the tip! Must’ve been an awesome first car 👍

This is a Colt with the Ralliart Germany bodykit, I believe the Evo running gear conversion was done by the owner.
@@Zerofightervi awesome thanks for the link!
The video editing seems way higher than you’d expect in a 500 sub channel
Appreciate that. You’ve got to start somewhere 😂
@@Throdle Subbed btw!
@@ayomaggotz cool! We’ve featured a lot of JDM cars and Team Hybrid members so have fun checking them out 👍
I own a base model lancer. The boring version of the evo. The 1.6 fwd drivetrain is not very mind-blowing, but now I want to make it an evo, cuz I can. This video inspired me to BUILD my dream, not to buy it. Thanks for this video!!🎉🎉! Consider me your new subscriber.🎉
Fantastic thank you for sharing and subscribing! Archie’s evo was just featured in SEMA last week as well. ❤
Mitsubishi should take notes
Heck yeah
The chick when he's listing the mods: "yeah"
Archie! congrats! mine is still under construction
You’ll have it show us on the throdle app 👌bit.ly/3XBEfbn
These Mirage are super popular in Puerto Rico
Fantastic! We don’t know much about the PR car scene. But would love for you to share it with us on throdle bit.ly/3XBEfbn
this is my dream, an awd converted Lancer GSR/Mirage Coupe
Very cool
I did converted Mitsubishi colt with awd system and 4g63 engine in 2005 , it is something different, everyone can buy evos but people can built mirage/ colt with evo stuff , it's real fun but need to spend time and money
Man this guy made my idea car came true 👍🏽 always want a Evo 5 coupe to compete with the 22b
Did you catch the update on him on our latest video from SEMA?
@@Throdle not yet, but I will check it out 👍🏽
What mitsubshi should of made to rival the 22b. Beautiful build 💪
They did... it was the TME evo...
Sheeeshhh cleaannn!✨
Yes it’s an amazing build!
Sick time attack!!!!
Absolutely! You should film him if you get the chance
Thank you mos def !!!!
Wow!
Dayuum ! Where can I find a body kit for the 2000 mirage?
It’s so f**king cool!
🔥 🔥
Archie !
I do agree...a four door is too mainstream... unlike the coupe/2door sports car...like the Subi GC8 RS,its a unicorn...and THIS 2door mix breed MiraVo is something too good to be true...
Totally! Thanks for sharing!
ngl I wanna copy this
the base body looks like a 2002 lancer gli coupe?
Almost loved it. Ricer vibes.
should've made it look like the evo3, there's already a two door gsr lancer that looks exactly like it tho
I Got a 2 doors Mirage 98, the Evo 5 Body kit, headlights and all fit without problem???
I have a 97 de coupe
Did you manage to put the evo 5 front on it?
Where do you get parts, bumper, body kit, hood?
I ordered my kit thru MastermindNA in southern california. The kits is for evo 5/6 cp9q chasis and its called Varis ASSO
I want to try this conversion, some recommendations?
Theres a couple on youtube theres abit of chopping involved and some expense buying the 4wd drivetrain. You may be able to get it cheap from an outlander or airtrek. Personally id go 6g75 rwd
sultan rs :3
NOOOOO!!!! The fact that the seats were Tommi Makinen means there is an EVO VI TME that was scrapped for parts 💔💔💔
Is it road legal? Do you need any cert?
No it’s road legal
Yes she street legal. Has registration and insurance..
Where is an action with this car ????
Sultan RS
That girl
Why didn’t you buy an evo instead…
“Cuz i wanned a 2 door”
Would've been nice to actually hear the car.
Your really gona have to change your name since thers already Throttle and Car throttle as 2 already existent massive car channels .
Thats a lancer bro not a mirage?
Makes you wonder why Mitsubishi didnt make these?
👌
When Mitsubishi was on top…. The mirage was actually a a sorta fun civic competitor type of car,,, now the 2022 mirage is a cheap Toyota echo knock off ,bottom of the barrel economy cheapie… ..
The slowest car in the market lmaoo
Why not just buy an Evo 🤔
That was a question asked!
I have had a 8, 9, and a rhd 3. I kept the 3 though..
2 door Evolutions doesn't exists so...
Its more fun to spend a total build spend of the current cost of an evo. Also evos are getting rarer every week.
Should have bought a Mitsubishi GSX.🤷🏻♂️
Fake Evo
Well as you can see "conversion" and the thought that its built no bought 🤷
2 door evo
You're just mad someone has a 2 door Mirage that makes more power then your 4 door Evo, it shares the same chassis, shares the same drive train, upgraded everything else, what's the issue? Queer.
I been looking for carbon door panels for a mirage for the logest. Anyone know where I can get a set or would I have to have them made ?
You wasted so much money on that
It's all about car enthusiasts you can't understand ❤❤❤
