ok guys now i know to use the search button and google for this but there wasnt really anything that pin points this subject...

ive been looking to do a 6a12 swap for my lancer and nothing i could really find that guide u though it for instance
- all hoses line up ?
- radiator same ? need some diy to make it fit ?
- electricals ?
- cables for the manual ? do they fit ? selectors match up ?
- master cylinder ? clutch lines ?
- anything custom ? any a/c hoses need to be moved/ shortened etc ?

something that would give an oomph on tryna do this conversion, i know it should be done and learn as u go but to avoid mistakes and getting a job as close to 100% as possible would much be preffered lol :)

so links, experience or anything would be great help or even another powerplant option but atm im real keen on the 6a12 as power results and economical wise it really isnt bad at all lol

oh and any good deals a fto mivec front cut :D

well yee any help appreciated...
thanks guys
 
oh sweet, ive typed everything off the top of my head to find something like this on google and never found anything

Really? I typed "6a12 lancer conversion" and it was the first result :lol:
 
use the fto ac line's and power steering hoses,
lancer radiator will fit with fto hoses and heater hoses
use fto engine mounts
use lancer air box
use fto accelerator cable
trim engine cover a little to clear the thermo fans as it all a very tight fit and alot of fun and swearing to get radiator and fans in think i had to put fans down first then slide radiator in
wiring is a head f**k that side is not plug and play
get the fto dash if possible with abit of mucking about it will fit into the standard lancer guage hole but plugs need to be rewired
Need a new exhaust as the fto headers finish further under car than the lancer ones do but they do fit and don't need to be replaced
need to change shifter mechanism on gearbox for the lancer one and the lancer shifter cables will hook up
need the fto clutch master and slave.

The main engine side of the change you can do in a weekend. it took me nearly a week to wire it all up though.
All up lancer 6a12 conversion cost about 2500
