The first 3 years i raced it with a welded centerdiff & stock gearbox & just remowed front driveshafts; just like the Tokyodrift EVO 8.
here´s how i simply made some "blockers" fo make the hubs stay in place, they worked perfectly all the time.
Image

I also had stock steeringangles and very little camber.


During the 1,5 year built, i decided early on that right-hand-drive was not for me at all, so i aqquired an FWD Lancer Estate (swedish market version) from which i took everything needed in order to move the steering to the left-hand-side. (The EVO 1-2-3 only came from the factory with RHD)
Image
Image

All done: Dashboard is also Lancer fwd, mirror copy of the EVO´s stock.
Image

Steeringwheels crashbeam (dont know the english name for it) also came from the donor car.
Image

Made a special airbox:
Image

The car took 1,5 years to finish,,, but finally done it was a pure beast

Continuing me story:

Oktober 2009:

Driftingshow at a rallycrosstrack, a lot of mud/sand unfortunatley
Garaget | Driftinguppvisning Svampabanan

----------------------------------------------------

Then came 2010....

A year that "Murphy" visited almost every time i drove the car.

First competition the car would not start at all.. later found that the connector TO the the camsensor was broken.

Then the watertempsensor for my Engine Managment System( sound almost like in the Fast & The Furious) broke, then after that the primary ignition sensor broke twice, due to a alternatorbelt beeing slightly out of alignment.

After that, first the rear diff broke at the second competition...
Image

So i rebuilt it:
Image

Then after a lot of work, i managed to arrange a driftpractice at Scandinavian raceway 8there they drove F1 in the 70´s).
The car worked perfectly, except for a broken turbogasket in the end of the day:

2 days after this practice, I did a spontaious show at Vallakratraffen.se northern europes biggest outdoor carshow/meet
Garaget | EVO på Vallåkra 2010

a few weeks later it was time for the yearly M.O.D, Mitsubishi Owners Day.
I drove 300miles with the trailer to get there... and just managed 4 laps before the gearbox broke...

Image
Image

--------------------------------------------------

This was the end of 2010:
at this moment i decided to make a "big" change within the car.

To really go "all in" with the Driftingmodefications for 2011.......

As december 2010 came, the car was parked in the driveway under its cover, i then realized i had to take a short break from it all....

but it was not supposed to be a year and a half.... to where Iam now !

In April 2011 i remowed the engine/gearbox...
Image

I had alreday back in February 2011 ordered the gearbox at the local breakeryard, also did I pay for it directly, but it still took them 9 months to remowe it from the crashed car. So i recived it in december 2011.

I immediatly went over to my friends garage togehter with the torn-apart broken EVO gearbox (sold the insides) so that he could cut both clutchcover and weld them together to make the M3 gearbox fit the 4G63.
Jimmy then proceeded to just this. He does this by hand with an anglegrinder, no machining of the parts at all. Then he measures for like 3-4 hours :thumb:
and finally welds the parts together.
Image
Image
Image

Now that the engine/gearbox transformation was done, i needed a new M3 throwout bearing (not cheap) & a set of new clutchdiscs, EBAY´s great :D

Then Mike my garagebuddy and I cut the front crossmember into 3pcs:
Since the gearbox will pass right through where its located:
the middle part is thrown away, the remaining parts were box-welded
reattached in order to fit the all new enginemounts + steeringrack.
Image
Image
Image

We also cut the firewall open:
Image

Since i will be using an BMW M3 gearbox, i needed the front part of an BMW propshaft. So i cut it of a E39 540V8 at the salvage yard.
Image

BMW shaft vs: EVO shaft:
Image

BMW shaft fits with 2mm to spare on the outside of the EVO shaft,
its gonna be easy to weld them together.
Image

I also bought the turbo from Jimmy for 280dollars.
A Schwitzer s300: (off an Scania-bus)
Image

I then had the compressorhousing sandblasted & powdercoated in chrome:
Here with the twin dumpvales i will start off with:
Image

The new front crossmember was cut measured measured measured & a little more measuring, before i welded it to the sides of the remaning old crossmember:


the pedal-set has been "narrowed" 7cm in order to make the clutchcylinder on the firewall fit beside the new intakemanifold.
Image

Mike welds the new wateroutlet at the back of the engine. A new external thermostat will also be fitted

adjusting the new front crossmember made from a 50x50x3mm,
not an easy task to measure it to the exact place without clear fixingpoints:
Image

Made new fasteners for the steeringrack

shortened the steeringknuckles 20mm
Image

new frontbeam, removable attached with 2pcs 10mm stainless steel bolts.
Image

Steeringrack is now in its final place, tok about an hour or two just to make/find the exact right measurments.

Here is Sweden there are five EVO 1-3´s with RWD, but all run the simple solution of welded centerdiffs.

I will stay with the maximum width of 215/45-17 sine the wheelwells (arches?) are som very small on the car, remember its a rallycar made for 15"s´.
But i will attach some external arches like the japanese driftcars often use
and for this i will cut the fenders roughly 1,5" uppwards ang mowe the rear wheels out about 1" per side, remember the front was widened by 70mm already.
Image

Another reason for the narrow tires is that the EVO has a very short wheelbase
combine this with wide tires, & it will be so much easier to "loose" "drift-traction in mid-drift in any turn, I rather use narrow tires to take the strain of the gearbox/diff ;) I have never understood why most drifters that are serious want to run 17-18-19". It will just break the drivetrain easier. i run 17" because of 330 brakediscs


I found a picture of an Hardydisc, its sits between outputshaft of the gearbox & the propshaft made of rubber.
Image

---------------------------------------

Took a small timeout yesterday untill noon... They had 2 on the salesfloor... so i could not decide... :cool:

Image

-------------------------------------------

Did some propshaftmechanics yesterday evening

had to cut a lot more of the two different propshafts.

together but not welded. here you can also see how much i have been forced to raise the propshafttunnel.

There are atleast 4 more EVO´s that have North/South engine installation...

Japanese Drift Team Orange has 2, one is an EVO 9, one is a EVO 10

The others i know of is one russian guy with an EVO3
& one greek guy with an EVO 6

...............................................................

My propshafttunnel is taking form.. The propshaft for the BMW gearbox is unfortunatley sitting 12cm higher in the chassies.
So all new fitting for the middle bearing is needed

Shiftermechanics....
Image

A 2,5mm thick steel plate is welded in for the handbrake to sit on,
this thickness so that it does not flex when handbrake is pulled.

Since the EVo has a very narrow passengercompartment, it was not an easy task to place the handbrake where i anted it.
Image

Image

"almost done"
Image

Photo from behind, here you see the hydraulic handbrake sitting
very close to the gearlever, But it´s also som 12cm further forward so i vill not tap it when changing gears (I HOPE)

Image

Today i have grinded down a lot of welds hard work & not very fun...

I also modifyed the handbrake-handle, by adding some 6cm in lenght, since i had to alter the "gearing".

Today some more propshaft welding has taken place:

had to weld in a small piece of steel onto the bigger one since m missing some bigger pieces.
Image

Will need some grinding/sandning:
Image

I had to remake half the pedal-set, in order to make the clutchmastercylinder comoe 4cm furter back.
Image

Also i modifyed the short lever that pushes onto the clutchmastercylinder.
Image

The clutchmastercylinder is 4cm further back.

This is such an awesome project, I'm actually starting the chop-up of my front k-member tomorrow for my 1g dsm. I wish your pics were bigger :? so I could see how you worked yours out. Did you use the factory steering rack but move it up in front of the axles? I couldn't really tell in the pics. And your steering angle is :D

Jake. Thanxs a lot, :D

The EVO 1-2-3 was only made with righthanddrive from the factory.

When i bought it I converted it to lefthanddrive using parts from an Swedish sold Lancer Estate.. Now with the engine north/south mounted, i had to mowe the steeringrack in front of the front axle (stock it sits by the firewall).
To do this i dug out my stock RHD EVO steeringrack, turned it up-side-down, o fitted it in front of the axle. = works perfectly 8)

but the Idea was from an Norwegian EVO4 with similar conversion

haha that's soooo funny, i thought the exact same thing about my rack! mine is also located just off of the firewall, and at first thought about trying to source a RHD rack for the same exact reason, to flip it and move it in front of the axle :o i think i'm just going to end up using a rack out of a mustang, i have to take some measurements, to see what will work

great minds think alike i guess :wink:

Also ordered a lot of aluminium screws, bolt & lockingnuts.

They will hold the dorrs, doorhandles, + a lot of other parts like the intake, camcover etc etc An alu-bolt is approx 70% ligher than a regular steel bolt
