also, you'll have to get an actual evo engine, as the dsm 4g63 is oriented the wrong way.

This has been done, but to a higher scale then you have planned. There is a guy here in Hawaii that did a complete AWD Evo 5 swap, he also has all the original body panneling and a bunch of custom stuff. I've seen it and it looks SICK ...If you wanna talk to him go to www.forumshawaii.net register and PM a guy names mitsuevo5


He's a really cool guy and I think he could help you out.

Here is a picture of his car...
