can evo 7 parts be used/swapped over to 02 CG LS VRX models ?

im curious, since all the interiors basically look the same, im wondering if im able to take the center deck/aircon console/housing and the whole shifter assembly from an evo 7 GTA and put it into a lancer CG tiptronic.

Why u ask? XD
not trying to do a conversion, i just like how evo 7 center console has 2 slots for a nav/media screen, and also like the tiptronic shifter and boot on the GTA, gives it a way better look then a standard plain automatic look with no boot :/
 
awesome thanks for the fast response!, i plan on finding an evo 7 gta @ wreckers and taking some useful parts, on that note what else can i salvage? if it has coil overs on them can they be taken and installed on 02 cg vrx?
 
ABS on this forum did the gta shifter conversion to his on his ch shifter with tiptronic.
The air con controls off an evo 7 might need some wiring work done as it is an electronic climate control system as opposed to the manual cable system in the lancer cg. Some ch vrx also came with the gta shifter and climate control.

Rear strut and shock setup slightly diff on the evo ct9a as opposed to a lancer cg/ch iirc.

Afaic suspension is completely different and incompatible. AWD vs FWD alone. Possibly brakes and brake mc but suspension is defi ately off the table. Maybe the cluster but not sure.
 
Ty, well i will def look at doing the shifter conversion if i can get my hands on a gta @ wreckers, in the mean time im going to do my own experiment with a custom boot, shifter knob and a roll of trim that can be used as an outline around the boot. i will post pictures and list everything ive done + prices and where i got them from once im finished in the "members ride's" section. my car looks much different now compared to my avatar.

Btw - Jumper918 what about if i got my hands on only the front coilovers for an evo, can they be installed? thanks for all ur answers guys ! very much appreciated!
