History
The car was bought originally in 2011 for $900. The Mirage underwent two iterations.
In the first iteration, the car was fully torn apart to get a full respray in Ferrari Red, and the engine was swapped to a 4G63T from a Mitsubishi Evolution 8. The car was kept FWD and ran a modest 380 hp with a forged engine and an Evo 9 turbo. This setup was kept for 4 years until in 2016 the second iteration was underway. The second and final iteration was the car had a full nut and bolt restoration done with every single piece being changed to stainless steel. The engine was rebuilt with strong internals whilst the head was ported as well. A larger turbo was put in and a whole new suspension setup was made. The biggest change was the change from a FWD to an AWD setup. This included a fully custom fabricated rear end, with an Evo RS rear diff, custom driveshaft and custom rear axles. A new aero kit was fabricated and designed in-house, with a more race-focused interior put into the car.
