There's just something about the 90s JDM cars that makes them really special. I can't quite put my finger on what it is. We had Evos, STIs, Skylines GT-Rs, Silvias, Supras, Integras, RX-7s and what not. It makes me sad that all those cars (and days) are gone.
The last sentence in your statement answers why. Nowadays they make stuff for economy and pretty much have extracted all the personality their pre-2000's counterparts had. They stopped being reliable tuners and started to be the cars you buy for your kids. Most people dont even know that honda's civics used to be/could be souped up for racing;Spoons. Same with subaru/mitsubishi and their rallying scene.On top of all that, they were affordable. Look at the GTR now, compared to its r32/33 counterparts, even adjusting for inflation, they were cheaper and still are. Plus in japan, their car ownership tax process eventually causes the cars they own to be scrapped because itd be financial suicide to continue the ownership. Youll have to read more on that though as I only know very little about it. TL;DR: JDM went to Economy groupings and put off their racing group(what made them) to people with who have money out the ass to by these, once, exhalted cars;Exclusivity.
Hea Mees I was talking only about cars which are not made anymore. With the lucky exception of Subaru, all other cars have beeb discontinued. So the NSX doesn't count.
the problem with WRC these days....the cars they race just don't have the hero status like these two...i mean a ford fiesta or toyota yaris arent exactly a poster car are they
julianlee2 Homolagation, that's what the WRC needs, I actually think the Yaris WRC looks utterly ridiculous, but it's also my favourite of the new age WRC cars. Toyota has made a limited edition Yaris but it's a FWD, superchargered 1.8 with, so nothing like a WRC car.
i own a 2004 blobeye impreza, am too young to own a turbo yet cuz my countries laws suck, but love it. especially the features for a 2004 car. im 2nd owner too watta bonus mate. im buying my mate an evo just so we can drive out together❤❤. im a gc8 chassis fan tho. 22b is my fav car
Shaeer Hassan Yep. Got a 92 GT-R in my garage and prefer driving it over my nice 2015 german sorts sedan. I SO wish japan was still making great driver's cars...
That Evo has to be the most nostalgic and the most 90's looking car. Even if you don't know shit about cars, you look at it and you can tell it's from the 90's.
Thanks for the kind words, we're very keen to produce more regular content but not compromise on quality. The plan is to release regular shorter videos in the coming weeks so feel free to tell your fellow car mates to give us a follow! :)
Recently I come across 90's cars driven by young people quite often. I don't know how the other countries are like, but Japan is like that, actually it is more often than late 2000's. I think it means even young Japanese don't really get atrracted to recent sport cars. I hope not only Japanese companies, but also car companies in the world think about that again. Young people's passion to sport cars will never change.
Very true, but those new strict emission/enviorment laws around the world are killing sport cars out. Many goverments and big companies are focusing on building cheap enconmic cars and electric cars instead of performance cars. Time has changed, it's just sad :(
This is beautiful, and true. I have been to Japan all my life for vacations, and yet only much later in my life I started to really love cars, and when I went back to Japan, excited to notice all the cars I would now see, I look at the cars and am ... apathetic. Kei cars are cool but I thought everyone would be driving cool cheap sports cars for some reason. Silly, and wrong. I did see a LanEvo though, and a stanced WRX. Maybe next time I'll see more. As for modern car companies, I think they are starting to care about enthusiasts, with GT86 and more new sports cars. Although Subaru and Mitsubishi will never be back again I don't think so at least :(
As a Subaru fan and owner; I love both name brand and both cars. 2 of the rarest cars. Along with the Toyota celica and many others. They are the legends of the 90s RIP Colin McRae.
I'm a Former STI owner from back in the day. A good friend of mine had one of these. We had such fun. Now it's 14 years later and memories are good. I respect the EVO. But my heart is blue. 💙
Legendary cars and a awesome video, they don't make cars this good anymore. Even today these cars can hold there own against modern machines around a twisty mountain pass or B road. They were way ahead of their time and had a rawness and purity that modern equivalents cannot get even close to.
@@GloomGaiGar you're gonna have bugs in your teeth or a branch smacking your helmet if you drive it on the road. At least in an Evo or STI you have a roof that you can buff out later instead of a concussion.
I genuinely felt sad watching that. We reached our peak in early 00's and pretty much most 'performance' cars since then have been about as interesting and fun to drive as a dishwasher. Who cares if you have 400hp in your RS3 it's driven by the pentium chip not your hands and feet. I really miss cars like this the only cars that have got close are the R26R for example.
Totally agree, been saying it for years, but millennials and boomers who must have the latest who want status over true visceral raw driver experience, you can’t explain it to them, they are sheep in a world of sameness!
great video dude, 90s were the best for these cars growing up playing with them on gran turismo, evos scoobys nsx skyline supras rx7s and so many legendary cars
Was always an Evo guy. Owned one and driven numerous others. But I recognise how great the Subarus are too. And easier to live with day to day. Softer ride and more feel to the steering. Also Evo running/maintenance costs are close to supercar territory. Still love em anyway.
@@AristidIXOpposite here in the Philippines. TMEs cost 150K USD, most expensive acquireable Subaru (Bug Eyes) are $30K USD max. My Evo VII is 20+ years old and I got 60K USD offers recently.
The TME is quite a different car than the regular 6... Though the 22B is an awesome car..The presence compared to another WRX is next level...complete legend car.... I have a Makinen Edition.... Garage queen that's clocked up 23,800km since new.... as a Mitsubishi Guy... I'd park a 22B next to it any day... though funds say NO!!!! lol
that evo is SO BEAUTIFUL. I love me a modded Evo, but I would rock the 6.5 Evo with that livery if I had one, and DEFINITELY keep it bone stock. Do not usually care about keeping things stock, but WOW. Japan in the 90's was unstoppable. I wish I was more conscious than like ~2 ish years for it. I can't believe it is worth less than the Subie, I would absolutely pay more for it. The Subaru is also beautiful though, and a great and worthy opponent. But Evo is definitely the winner. If I can buy a car, it will be that car. God I hope I have a chance by the time I have enough money. So beautiful.
I loved the style of this video. Such a chill, laid back experience, with great production value. The voiceovers got a little TOO laid back, though, lol. There's a noticeable difference in the host's voice, and it comes off as a lack of enthusiasm (though I'm guessing it's a byproduct of how quiet recording studios can be). Still, great work! Earned a sub.
will you, really? park any of that cars in public space? thats crime, for what? to get a hit from random SUV, where fucktards, erm sorry... kids are opening doors like they are escaping prison, or why ?
Well there is a more rare Evo called the Jackie Chan Special Edition. They only made 50, so good luck seeing one of those compared to Subarus 424 production.
I love these Subaru cars!!! That low centre of gravity around the corners, no need to understand that they are Rally legends. But as a guy, that fix his own car on a sidewalk in front of the house I would go for EVO. Boxter engine is hard to work on, as to do for example a head gasket replacement you have to take the engine out, wherewith 4G63 you just go with it. Even the turbo is mounted in the front so you can replace it quickly if you running on a track. Well thank you if you read this comment in full, there is no such thing as a RED or BLUE. No matter what you pick they are legends and badass! ;)
@@Cosigner22 I worked on Porsche, Subaru and even an old VW Beetle. Every boxer engine is more difficult to work on, compared with any longitudinally, or transverse-mounted engine. You don't have to be an engineer to know that, is just common sense
Definitely will drive these two other than these days modern supercars. Seriously. Rally, Mountain Pass, name it. These two are still awesome in those areas ❤❤
I gotta say this video is well put together great information on both icons ... And if i was a car collector with the money these two would be amongst my list ...
Top quality production values on your vids which makes me wonder why you only have 2k subs? Subbed and looking forward to more content on this level 😀😀
Great vid. The 22b is absolutely my dream car. The TME is sweet too. If I came into alot of money, the first two cars I'd buy would be a 22b and a 2004-05 NSX.
The Evo VI TME is my dream car. I don't ever want to buy a modern car because of all the comfort and electronics. Give me raw, unfiltered driving. There will never be cars like these again.
Great review. Absolutely loved my 2010 Evo X GSR. Sadly ruined by a truck with poor brakes. Really like my 2016 STI. Great cars, both a blast to drive. Nothing else like them really.
Say what you'll about e gentleman's agreement, but the horse power cap actually make them innovative in tons of different ways to make their cars, faster, handle better and saw through the biggest technological achievement in decades
Absolutely true... the Evo... In particular the Makinen Edition saw as much as 220-230 kw... which makes sense as the times these cars were pulling "standard" just wasn't right with the power to weight ratio... Hell, my stock Makinen pulled a 12.4 quarter mile at 3000km old...about 114-116mph..iirc,. the readout has long since faded to unreadable... sadly..
I was always an Impreza man myself having owned both a Uk Turbo 2000 and then a P1. Watching through videos like this though is rekindling my love for these 90s cars. Perhaps a Scooby and an Evo would sit nice together in the future. Now I just need to wait to sort the funds, hmmm
Im loving your videos! Very knowledgeable and buckets of research! Very good filming and editing! Getting a chris harris vibe! Also I'm not an evo geek, some fancy explaining the black doorhandles to me?
I was not lucky enough to own a 22B or even a Impreza Turbo 2000, but I did own and modify a 2000 Impreza Sport 8 years ago and I had the best fun in that car and the community was great. I have since has two fast Volvos -(S60R), and now in a mk5 GTi and I can honestly has they do not offer the excitement as an impreza does. Great video Torque GT. FYI, 22B is Hexadecimal for 555.
I prefer the Tommi, looks better and more sophisticated drive train. People would not look at the 22B unless they knew what it was. The TME just looks so special.
Great movie, which one would you take home if both were say £30k a piece? Having driven more normal Imprezas and Evo's there really is only one that is consistently more focussed/fun.
I used to have a Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI TME, Passion Red exactly identical to this one. I sold it, and replaced with the Ford Focus RS MK3. I love the RS. It is amazing, but, I kind of miss my Evo.
This is an awesome work ! Dayummm. Torque GT next do a video of an AE86 Trueno ! ..One more thing the soundtrack you're producing is awesome. If you dont mind to sell the songs on iTunes or Bandcamp. Thank you.
What are the songs, the intro around :40 is sweet! And I have good taste, it sounds like an experienced production, a legit full length song that has been snipped, not something slapped together for an intro.. I am fully willing to be corrected!
Absolute epic "B" roads you're driving on mate... wow!!! Jealous much!!!!!! As a Australian (Scotia white) Makinen owner since new, yes... 17+ years I've owned one 23,800km later.And still completely standard too!!.. I Really enjoyed this Vid.. The 22B really is the Holy Grail of the WRX Impreza's, But we never got them here.. Real Shame that.. Beast of a car with the perfect body... Definitely would own one... if I had the $$... the best shape and best incarnation of the GC8 model...Perfect! But as far as Evo Lancers go... the Makinen Edition is still my absolute favourite...Driven nearly all.. (except the II and 7... and the Evo 9 Wagon of course lol) \ Nothing comes close to the way this car handles, talks to you whilst driving and the sheer fun these cars are to drive... Standard.. there's not a lot that'll keep up with them on normal roads...The status of collectible rally icons is true... these two cars are to salivate over... especially if they're completely standard!!! Nice work!!!
Because of the "stupid gentlemen's agreement" is that Japanese kept focusing in the driving experience unlike for example united States cars.. they are only about v8, big displacement and poor handling
mr oppai coming from a fellow American.. yeah it sucks for sure.. and plus, Those who own the V8 muscle cars only care about straight line racing and most of them are DBags and I mean BIG ones
@@jeffel80 respect where it's due, yes, maybe nowadays especially since the Japanese market is starting to get sorta lackluster tbh.. but if you get any muscle car pre 2013, it will not be a good handler stock or possibly modified because they are simply too big and have a harder time getting around corners and especially the hairpins that most older Japanese cars from the 90' and even the 00's can do with much more ease! I know I may seem biased, but my favorite company is Dodge and it always will be, (kinda a coincidence that Mitsubishi is also one of my favorite Japanese companies too) and my dream Muscle car is a 1968-1970 Dodge Charger... If not that then the 04-06 GTO would be my second pick.. I still do like Muscle cars, just the only reason I never buy is not only because they are generally more expensive even though they are more bang for buck for the power maybe, but also I just don't have as much a connection to them as I do with [V6]/I4 Japanese imports! Also, it's just cheaper and easier to use for every kind of road course or hairpins that most muscle cars just can't do.. Will say this though, I would buy a Muscle car before I buy any German car despite how good those can be too... I would not be caught dead in anything BMW especially!
@Gareth Johnstone but why wouldn't they want a power war? I mean, I get that they won't want it to get out of hand, but isn't that what you would want seeing the kinda of cars that came out because of it and the new tech and stuff that they can produce would have been mesmerizing! I'm genuinely curious my guy.. also, wasn't the 90's Big 6 (300ZX, 3000GT/GTO, Supra, Skyline, RX-7, NSX) also apart of this since they couldn't go over 276hp even though they all made well over 300 (despite the NSX and RX-7)

Exactly!

Toyota has made a limited edition Yaris but it's a FWD, superchargered 1.8 with, so nothing like a WRC car.
Zerofightervi if they produced their special edition cars like they are seen in wrc they would be incredible
Zerofightervi the only one that's done it so far is the Focus Rs
Perhaps it reminds us about group B rally? Remember when the cars which competed in that era was just a little hatchback (205 or austin metro)
I m a Mitsubishi fan boy, but still I love those amazing Subarus, they both are amazing.
Evos suck, Subies rock

Japan really need to get some cars back into WRC. It just isn't the same without them.
Toyota is currently dominating the WRC (as of today), but it's not the same as it was in the 1990s.
Watch launch control, they got some pretty good drivers
本当にそう思う
Amen, brother, preach!!
Both are my all time favourites... These cars shouldn't be separated, never *EVER.*

What a shame the 22B owner replaced those beautiful original gold BBS rims with some generic looking silver rims.

Maybe to preserve the original ones

Great vid. The 22b is absolutely my dream car. The TME is sweet too. If I came into alot of money, the first two cars I'd buy would be a 22b and a 2004-05 NSX.
The Evo VI TME is my dream car. I don't ever want to buy a modern car because of all the comfort and electronics. Give me raw, unfiltered driving. There will never be cars like these again.
Great review. Absolutely loved my 2010 Evo X GSR. Sadly ruined by a truck with poor brakes. Really like my 2016 STI. Great cars, both a blast to drive. Nothing else like them really.
Say what you'll about e gentleman's agreement, but the horse power cap actually make them innovative in tons of different ways to make their cars, faster, handle better and saw through the biggest technological achievement in decades
The issue was that few were actually capped. Supra's and R34 GTRs for example were well over 300bhp in standard form.
But agreed, it no doubt had an influence on innovation.
Absolutely true... the Evo... In particular the Makinen Edition saw as much as 220-230 kw... which makes sense as the times these cars were pulling "standard" just wasn't right with the power to weight ratio... Hell, my stock Makinen pulled a 12.4 quarter mile at 3000km old...about 114-116mph..iirc,. the readout has long since faded to unreadable... sadly..
@@steveblackbird the 22b should be as fast idk
Fantastic video guys. Big thumbs up from me.
I was always an Impreza man myself having owned both a Uk Turbo 2000 and then a P1.
Watching through videos like this though is rekindling my love for these 90s cars.
Perhaps a Scooby and an Evo would sit nice together in the future.
Now I just need to wait to sort the funds, hmmm
Right now 2017 they're still fast in the mountains.
well let's race in the mountains! I live somewhere in Andalucia
Manual M3 Manual STI if you like tricky mountain style roads I would definitely recommend looking into a road trip through New Zealand.
Agree arthurs pass and Crown rangers
Peter Pacciani chill out ma dude respect other car enthusiasts
Amazing video , making my hangover very pleasant
22b any day a complete legend of a car plus you got to love the sound
great video guys loved every second !
Really enjoyed the video, great work!!! Subbed! 👍🏼👌🏼🍻
Damn I want that Evo. Both beautiful cars but there's something about the old Evos. Evo 4-6 are truly amazing
This Rivalry will be heard and Witnessed and Read even in centuries to come....so cool.....
the video production is amazing, keep up the good work
Great video! Keep up the good work. Would love to see a nismo r32 gtr.
I Love all cars.. it connects us all.. it's not just a hobby it's a lifestyle..
Your videos are so high quality and fun to watch! (just subscribed) Keep it up!
Congratulations for the vídeo. It`s very good. My favourite`s two all time WRC cars...!
Must be a new channel. Nice video quality, subbed.
Im loving your videos! Very knowledgeable and buckets of research! Very good filming and editing! Getting a chris harris vibe! Also I'm not an evo geek, some fancy explaining the black doorhandles to me?
I was not lucky enough to own a 22B or even a Impreza Turbo 2000, but I did own and modify a 2000 Impreza Sport 8 years ago and I had the best fun in that car and the community was great. I have since has two fast Volvos -(S60R), and now in a mk5 GTi and I can honestly has they do not offer the excitement as an impreza does. Great video Torque GT. FYI, 22B is Hexadecimal for 555.
Well done guys!
Great vid!
Good times indeed
god i would take the 22b in a heartbeat
I prefer the Tommi, looks better and more sophisticated drive train. People would not look at the 22B unless they knew what it was. The TME just looks so special.
gotta love the classic legendary Evo VI TME and STI 22B
The red and blue rivalry! Such nice machines!
This channel needs more subs
Great movie, which one would you take home if both were say £30k a piece? Having driven more normal Imprezas and Evo's there really is only one that is consistently more focussed/fun.
Tough question!
I guess we will neva know..
Dave Spooney 22b for me. Back in the day it would of been the evo.
That ending brings a tear to my eye
Nice video, makes me want an Mak Evo now!
Subbed! Great video and looking forward to more from you guys!
I used to have a Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI TME, Passion Red exactly identical to this one. I sold it, and replaced with the Ford Focus RS MK3. I love the RS. It is amazing, but, I kind of miss my Evo.
Great work guys, smashin' it as always!
Cracking video guys, maybe its time to get a TME :)
Both are JDM legends but the EVO!!!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍
This is an awesome work ! Dayummm. Torque GT next do a video of an AE86 Trueno ! ..One more thing the soundtrack you're producing is awesome. If you dont mind to sell the songs on iTunes or Bandcamp. Thank you.
What are the songs, the intro around :40 is sweet! And I have good taste, it sounds like an experienced production, a legit full length song that has been snipped, not something slapped together for an intro.. I am fully willing to be corrected!
Absolute epic "B" roads you're driving on mate... wow!!! Jealous much!!!!!!
As a Australian (Scotia white) Makinen owner since new, yes... 17+ years I've owned one 23,800km later.And still completely standard too!!.. I Really enjoyed this Vid.. The 22B really is the Holy Grail of the WRX Impreza's, But we never got them here.. Real Shame that.. Beast of a car with the perfect body... Definitely would own one... if I had the $$... the best shape and best incarnation of the GC8 model...Perfect!
But as far as Evo Lancers go... the Makinen Edition is still my absolute favourite...Driven nearly all.. (except the II and 7... and the Evo 9 Wagon of course lol) \
Nothing comes close to the way this car handles, talks to you whilst driving and the sheer fun these cars are to drive... Standard.. there's not a lot that'll keep up with them on normal roads...The status of collectible rally icons is true... these two cars are to salivate over... especially if they're completely standard!!! Nice work!!!
Just discovered this great channel instant sub!
Because of the "stupid gentlemen's agreement" is that Japanese kept focusing in the driving experience unlike for example united States cars.. they are only about v8, big displacement and poor handling
mr oppai coming from a fellow American.. yeah it sucks for sure.. and plus, Those who own the V8 muscle cars only care about straight line racing and most of them are DBags and I mean BIG ones
mr oppai try owning a turbo Honda and beat one of em and you'll see why
Mhm, but you can't deny the fact that there are some awesome American cars that give tons of driving pleasure
Such examples:
Uuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
@@jeffel80 respect where it's due, yes, maybe nowadays especially since the Japanese market is starting to get sorta lackluster tbh.. but if you get any muscle car pre 2013, it will not be a good handler stock or possibly modified because they are simply too big and have a harder time getting around corners and especially the hairpins that most older Japanese cars from the 90' and even the 00's can do with much more ease!
I know I may seem biased, but my favorite company is Dodge and it always will be, (kinda a coincidence that Mitsubishi is also one of my favorite Japanese companies too) and my dream Muscle car is a 1968-1970 Dodge Charger... If not that then the 04-06 GTO would be my second pick.. I still do like Muscle cars, just the only reason I never buy is not only because they are generally more expensive even though they are more bang for buck for the power maybe, but also I just don't have as much a connection to them as I do with [V6]/I4 Japanese imports! Also, it's just cheaper and easier to use for every kind of road course or hairpins that most muscle cars just can't do..
Will say this though, I would buy a Muscle car before I buy any German car despite how good those can be too... I would not be caught dead in anything BMW especially!
@Gareth Johnstone but why wouldn't they want a power war? I mean, I get that they won't want it to get out of hand, but isn't that what you would want seeing the kinda of cars that came out because of it and the new tech and stuff that they can produce would have been mesmerizing! I'm genuinely curious my guy.. also, wasn't the 90's Big 6 (300ZX, 3000GT/GTO, Supra, Skyline, RX-7, NSX) also apart of this since they couldn't go over 276hp even though they all made well over 300 (despite the NSX and RX-7)
great vids mate , one thing that sticks out is that other mic is very muffled and bassy needs tining up alittle ;)
I love both of these!
I am going to buy a 1.6l Subaru Impreza soon.
Evo TME is such a gorgeous car
Reminds me of being a kid riding my go kart in the woods acting like Richard Burns and Sébastien Loeb haha good times
