for a Mirage to Evo VI converson you will need a front & rear cut of the Evo VI and a 97-02 mirage chassi, every thing will swap over (bonnet, doors and such) the only problem is RHD as apposed to LHD and FWD to 4WD.

Easy RHD is to bare the midsection on the Mirage chassi and do a layover bolt for bolt from the Evo, this will take cutting, grinding, welding, filling, and painting. now you will have steering on the RHS as well as all nessicary mounting locations for evo engine swap and dash excessories.

FWD-4WD you will notice the evo has a raised boot to accomidate to the rear differential, and extra brackets for 4W controle arms and what have you, The mirage chassi has a deeper boot, and no RD arms. here you will need to visavis the rear portions similar to the front

nother note; if you dont want to do the 4WD the mirage case will not work but i cant remember which gearbox will fit so you probably need to lock the evos gear box
