RWD Lancer CONVERSION Build Cost Breakdown!

[@itsmikelake]

What do you think? Is the build worth the $$? Thanks for watching ❤️

[@bobbycatgt70]

Definitely!

[@briansbikesandhobbies6834]

So worth it mate, awesome build, good call with the ca18 as well

[@countrymodified7857]

Fuck yeah it’s worth it makes me want to do the same to my Corolla and magna

[@luseanswarts5174]

Yes!! Every second of me waiting for the update was worth it. You killed it!!

[@tokokaraitiana8904]

100%

[@grimairbrush]

Mike, you've seen the photos of our lancer and that was rebuilt for around $13,000 including the cost of the car, so for what you have spent for the work and conversion done to it isn't an insane amount, its the time, passion and memories you put into them, hopefully we'll see you in feb mate!, stay safe

[@BoiLeek]

Compared to what it was before as the basic silver fevo and now practically an evo it looks incredible 🔥 I’m also from Vic so hopefully one day I’ll be able to get to see it in person. I don’t have the money for it rn but one day I’d love to build my own fevo like yours

[@itsmikelake]

Thank you bro! It'll be at the Keep It Reet events so come and say hey. Set goals and you can achieve anything.

[@BoiLeek]

@@itsmikelake Sweet if I end up going to one I’ll be sure to keep a look out for your car 🤝🏼

[@user-zw2uj6gb4j]

I absolutely love this car and what you have done to it and we all know how much effort you put in this car and it really paid off I love this car so much I even made the same one in forza

[@itsmikelake]

Thanks so much! I’d love to see pics of it on forza! I’m getting one made on assetto corsa 😛

[@Jamalfrdude]

I love the widebodykit

[@davidkitchingman2222]

Awsome job on lancer build mike it is awsome .The satisfaction & good memories is priceless!Just to think here in NZ that I’ve a near stock ce lancer that I inherited from my Aunt 7 years ago!Ive now got my own cool memories of what I’ve since done on the car eg done up exhaust,stereo,window tinting done professionaly.The list will expand I’m sure of further things I’ll do to honour the one who had it before me.Keep it up!

[@jerytherew1]

I concur. I ls rear wheel swapped a 14 lancer and put all evo panels on it. Don't even want to try to add up receipts. Good job guys.

[@TomBudin]

fire brother

[@stoneautomotive]

Cool project, love the paint job! hats off for doing it in the workshop

[@baronblahblah2396]

Was thinking about doing the same thing with my Camry with a built engine, yours looks incredible! Awesome

[@thenetworkguy_]

In todays ridiculous priced JDM market (thanks C and US :D) which likely will never be low again for us mere mortals this build makes total sense and is a testament to how far you have come fella.

[@BenHut69]

Honestly, with what you paid completely worth it. I’ve spent about that on my LS swap so far😂😂 that fevo is one of my favorite cars ever, evo 5 is a dream car

[@doitdan2354]

It’s been cool to watch this build. Definitely worth it

[@UsoUnknown]

Definitely worth, especially doing all the works yourself probs adds a massive satisfaction to you.. Good shit bro, can’t wait to see it on the roads 🔥🔥🔥

[@Jm99467]

I’ve just binge watched the whole series over the last week and it turned out so good! Gives me tons of inspiration! What happens when you get pulled over on the street just pay a fine and drive again? In NZ that would be pink stickered that would be the end of street driving it haha

[@paulskiee6518]

Finally done! And im a fan of this build since day 1! Forget the cost and enjoy your hardwork and dedication on building this great machine. This is my inspiration on building my lancer. Were both yellow tho 😁 -Subscriber from Philippines.

[@andreperinchief7496]

You and your team did a great job on the car I look forward to seeing more with this car I’m from Bermuda I would love to do that conversion but because we are so limited I can’t but please keep up the great work

[@GTE465]

Definitely AWESOME!!! I to have a Lancer 1999 in red paint fade. I am curious about the wide body fenders front and back. Did you buy them ?

[@itsmikelake]

Yep! But they were bloody hard to find 😅 I think I might reproduce them in fibreglass for people to buy 🤔

[@GTE465]

@@itsmikelake sounds good to me, it's a bitch of a job though Mike!!!

[@jcr6548]

It's soo pretty, well done brutha

[@jake3085]

Mike lake - my fave guy on youtube atm Hahaa sick job on this thing mate, i have a ce mr lancer that ill be doing a fevo build of my own on soon, except no were near as nice as yours, ill just be slapping an evo turbo and an adaptronic ecu on it and calling it a day

[@Ren200Z_MotoringLife]

and having a ca18 you have the option if wanted to just drop in a sr20det ... great build

[@itsmikelake]

Absolutely right! There’s room to upgrade & develop over time. Thanks 😁

[@jk-xe5em]

Fxxk everyone’s negative opinions tho long as your happy bro, im a fan of “modified” and you did it PROPER with this. It’s a winner

[@CamMartonDrift]

I vote for this to be the new comp car!

[@itsmikelake]

Haha you're SUCH a bad influence!!

[@jm0nstuk906]

You should next year do a rwd Honda drift build, loving the content man

[@itsmikelake]

I have a few ideas for the next build 😛. Thank you bro!

[@Madaz]

yes, its killer dude

[@crazygoosegarage9586]

100% worth it. It’s a weapon

[@itsmikelake]

Absolutely agree. So happy with it! 😍

[@Paul_AWD]

Turned out so good.🤙🏼

[@MtgAggroUrsa]

id like to do this to my mirage vrx.

[@hcfcustoms]

So unique👌 absolutely love it😍 worth every cent👍

[@itsmikelake]

Thank you bro 👊🏻

[@manqkasgarage6215]

Absolutely beautiful car as I always sad about it. Building your own dream ,nothing els can compare to that. I do the same with my builds ,not everyone can appreciate what we do,but those who can will love it.

[@Johnnwho]

Was it worth it? Yeah it was! Great memories plus an awesome interesting car!

[@Vitoskux]

The fevo has made me wanna buy an Evo 5 or 6. There beautiful cars man.

[@itsmikelake]

Thank you bro. They’re bloody beautiful cars hey. I think some black aero along the bottom of the kit will really finish off the look!

[@itsmikelake]

[@itsmikelake]

Thank you my friend 👊🏻

[@kyleellis2503]

Love it bro

[@Well-p9y]

Hi, I am actually looking for a Lancer Glx here in my state (Im from Brazil) and I look like, for WEEKS someone here who did something at least near what you did but I could find anything in brazilian portuguese, can you put subtitles on the playlist? Because a lot of people could use your knowledge to make these changes, not only on Lancer but other projects too, will be really helpful 🙏❤

[@tufflux8922]

100% worth it 👌👌

[@itsmikelake]

Totally agree 😁

[@haydeng6801]

Hey man been following the build for a long time I own a ce coupe myself and have for some time would really love to know the weight if it’s possible my coupe is just shy of eight with heaps stripped out

[@tufflux8922]

Hey man some killer footage on Scott millers channel of the e36 👌

[@itsmikelake]

Ooft thanks bro, i'll check it out!

[@ShailerMotorsport2020]

Can you register this on the road to be a daily? Or is it only club rego?

[@antoniosvorrias9100]

Crazy result for $13k/$18k! Awesome 👍Out of curiosity, if u had to ballpark the labour cost if you had all the work done for you (paid), where do u think you would be at? Another 18k or so?

[@peter_brash]

Tbh it’s a gangsta car for $18k Respect.

[@masternandozplays7099]

Looks dope asf

[@michaellee3310]

Coolest car on KZbin

[@mikeycho5930]

Hi! it's nice to waching. you & your guys doing with 😃. where is shop location?

[@itsmikelake]

Thank you bro! We’re located in springvale

[@hellaflushhonda]

13,000 is INSANELY CHEAP! Such a cool build, but for the average joe who doesn’t have shop access and would need help from a shop to get some of this done I think shop fees would add another 15k to 20k onto the build but would still be worth it in my opinion

[@SHOCKcustoms]

Fully sick hectic

[@MegaMadmax1000]

Is it road legal since all the custom work? Just wondering as it would never be allowed on the road in NZ. Or is it "road legal" lol Nice work mike, looks wicked

[@itsmikelake]

It’s the second one 😅. Haha thank you bro!

[@Lefs14]

🔥

[@Smisky]

🔥 🔥 🌶️ 🌶️

[@MicahBell_1860]

Undervalued my estimate by only $1,254! Is it worth it, Mike? You would spend more on a new humdrum car. So, being cheaper than that, you could argue that a unique car like this is worth it. But the bigger consideration in this question, is how big a smile does spending that money, on this car give you? I think you paid a bargain for so much joy

[@lipvandip6480]

Worth the money purely because of the sound..... and the fact it's an Evo going sideways 👌

[@itsmikelake]

Couldn’t agree more! I absolutely adore this car 😍

[@Mwhbmnabjms]

Of course people love the car even before ca18 convert, someone risk their life to own n have the gut to steal it. Hahaha. What a memorable car..lost n found n mod again hahahaha.

[@hansvonfritz1670]

Absolute chad brother Never sell this one. (Also asking to add fog lights into the bumper)

[@swatlobby2971]

1500 alone can get me a stock one from where I’m from dam

[@itsmikelake]

Do it!!

[@ApexwithDavin]

Honestly, that's not bad. Less than $20k is a great deal.

[@itsmikelake]

Agree! Absolutely love this car 🥰

[@ApexwithDavin]

@@itsmikelake Do you think, if you did it again, you'd do the CA18? Are those engines pretty common where you are?

[@ricpascoe9589]

If i had the money and brain capacity i would probably do something similar ps. love the car looked good at lz world tour

[@Maz_249_0]

OMG😮

[@lcedoutshef]

Convert the sideskirts to evo sideskirts with some fiberglass work. It's pretty much the only giveaway its not a real evo

[@auscarphotography]

Damn i was bloody close i said 17k

[@michaelvernuccio6901]

build me one. thanks

[@itsmikelake]

BRB. Doing so now

[@tyronesealy]

Car is awesome, love the build, paint looks really good on camera. I just have one dislike as you know.

[@davidyalda6486]

try getting it registered as an evo 😂😂😂

[@itsmikelake]

It is 🤙🏻

[@beauhoskin1629]

Wait till it’s involved in an accident on the road an you get sued through the ass and loose everything for this dodgy not engineered setup

[@itsmikelake]

Okay Karen 🤣

[@WraithDeath]

"Rear wheel drive Lancer build cost breakdown" It's been done extremely well, but stop calling it something it's not 🤦‍♂️
