Well i'm pretty sure that my 95 GST is sold and I have by chance picked up a 90 mirage 1.5L hatchback 5-sp. I also have a 90 mirage auto 4-dr sedan that I'm using as my daily driver. Well, heres my plan. I plan on dropping a 4G63T into the hatch. What would you guys recomend? I am for sure going to use a 6-bolt but I would like to stick with 2nd gen internals. Would you guys recommend having a 6-bolt rebuilt with the 95 internals or should I just try and find an intact rebuilt 6-bolt?? Its a fairly straightforward swap, and I should be in the mid 12's with a pretty much stock setup. Any infoinput is much appreciated. BTW- Both of these cars will be paid off so thats the good part. Thats an extra ~$450 a month that I can pour into this mirage. I think its time we showed those honda guys what a real hybrid is made of. smile.gif Thanks guys!!

The fastest current mirage is an 11.67. It was the guy in the white hatch, but he was running a 20G turbo then. The car is up for sale for $6500. If you ask me thats a damn good price for a car that fast. And as far as traction, AWD dsm's springs and struts amazingly enough fit the mirageturbo. Also, the rear strut bar for an AWD dsm will work. I will be using an LSD equipped tranny also, but im not sure of the halfshafts as i have to use the stock 1.5L halfshafts I belive.

Ouch! You'd think those halfshafts would snap on a car running 11's. I'd email the turbomirage guy about those.
