Hey all, I was just mulling over ideas of projects for the future. I'm disabled so I cant operate a standard manual gearbox (may want a sequential someday though with pushbuttons). So my GSX is an automatic of course. I was thinking of possibly building a GVR4 someday, but I was a bit hesitant to hack up a limited car like that. Maybe if I found a complete pile to fix i'd consider it.
Then my thoughts came to a Mirage. I think that'd be better, since they're more common, so Id feel more comfortable customizing it. I figure i'll put a stock longblock 2G engine into it. My only question is with the transmission. I know that Evo 3's didnt come in an auto, but will a 2G auto fit without a ton of mods? Are there any mounts that would already work? What about the shifter? I did a bit of reading and saw that RVR turbo autos would work, but I wasnt sure the differences between that and a 2g. I'd swap in the shifter and all so it works like OEM.
Let me know your thoughts/info/any helpful links. I would like to have a 4 door daily driver someday and that'd be fun.
