Hey everyone, I really need some help finding some north american cars that the evo 1 suspension matches with. I have a 93 Evo GSR and my front struts are in need of replacement and I don't know which car to look for that matches it. I already got front calipers and pads from a 95 Ecliplse awd turbo, front rotors from a Galant VR-4, rear rotors from a Volvo s40 and rear pads from a mirage or something I think. The last parts to change is the suspension. For now I don't need anything heavy duty since my car is a family car, with two car seats in the back!
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Cal

Rear suspension from a Mirage will fit. As will the fronts, but you'll need the Mirage springs and the Evo has springs with a wider diameter.

Considered the front struts from a 1G DSM? (This is a stab in the dark though)

The spring seat on the awd models is wider e.g. you may not fit the awd springs on the standard model strut.

Being a 93 is it safe to assume you have an Evo 1? If it is Evo 2 (Dec 93) you will need an Evo 2/3 strut due to the sway bar link mounts.

Yes it is an Evo 1, from what I was reading it looks like the fronts from a 96 Mirage and the rears from a 94 lancer CC? I may have to just take them to a shop and see if they are the same as our 1st gen DSM's like GSRWRC mentioned. Thanks for the help so far!!
