Hi everyone I'm Joey. Well I've always wanted to do a mirage/colt hatch project but never got around to it and there are not that easy to find in Florida. So I picked this 90 mirage up with an awd swap already in it with a few other goodies. Will be using the motor from my last 95 eclipse gst that had a built 6 bolt in it. Transmission from a 93 gsx that I will be rebuilding. The car was set up for drag racing I will be making it a street/drag toy. Will keep posting as things fall into place.

Beautiful!


...and I'm digging the turbo setup. I assume you'll be going with something more street-suitable setup using a full rad and street-friendly(ish) turbo like a 6262 or 35r?


Please post more pics. That thing is nice. The color is beautiful on that car.

I may go with the same setup but with a smaller more streetable turbo. The paint is custom it's some sort of Honda blue with yellow & pearl. In the sun it's sex...

I have the dsm dash and cluster in my car. I love it. Any pics of the fender exit exhaust? Im trying to decide between that and hood exit. How flimsy is the front end with the radiator support cut, seems roomy but I like having a hood latch.

Sweet find, looks like a good deal.
