What's your favorite 4G63 platform? Would you build an Evo, Eclipse, or Galant VR-4 for your track car? Special thanks to the Patreon Supporters who make this content possible and the incredible folks who offer their cars for features.
You were *very* calm when that clutch gave out lol! I would have immediately assumed I'd destroyed the car, left it on the side of the road, and moved to Canada to escape the embarrassment.
My clutch cable snapped on my Cobra once. I was lucky enough to be able to start in first and float the gears to get home. No grind between gears surprisingly
"The mighty drag racing Bulgarian" - I'm flattered haha. 4G63T cars have their issues but for the most part it's always little stupid things like this clutch pin that break. It's an opportunity to bond with the car! I've been looking through the classifieds for the right Evo or DSM to pop up, so who knows...maybe it's time to bring back the college days.
Your point is totally correct. Being able to drive a car on any road, at any speed, with confidence that it won't just break on you....so awesome. Hell of a video!
Someone from germany did drove a Proton Wira at nurburgring. Proton Wira is a rebadged lancer for Malaysia market. Yes a lancer, not an Evo. But most of the part are plug and play
@@TedwardDrives It is no secret that you are my favorite youtuber in general, nobody else can get me to watch a whole video without skipping a single second of it, although the documentary about billy monger had me pretty hooked.
Chris Harris is a lot better but since he joined top gear there has been so little content that it doesn't even count. Matt Farah is a better road reviewer but other than these legends there are few channels which even focus on the cars instead of the hosts so this channel easily makes it into the top 10 car-review channels of youtube.
Passed lots of trackdays in this car with the previous owner. Fixed lots of issues including cooling and all sorts. Absolute weapon on the track. There isn't much that can hang with this when comparing power/weight. Miss it.
@@TedwardDrives we had 20min sessions pinned on fast track up here in Canada. With 100-180kph wind flow it's fine. Shorter tracks required a cool down at times. But 175kph flat out corners ARE SAVAGE.
I'm so glad these are legal in the states now, I've always wanted one of these and they're not to hard to import (i think) and would make an amazing car for some rally cross series in the SCCA
@@zadekharbat fund any importer that isnt a huge dealership, all the dealerships charge way too much. Buddy kid mine picked up a grey evo 3 for 9k clean 3cmknths ago, I picked up my clean r32 gts4 coupe for 9.5 not long ago, just find the right people
This little car had you pumped, I could hear it in your voice. That's high praise coming from someone like you who has access to so many fantastic vehicles. Still loving the channel, keep 'em coming!
Thanks! I love engaging cars. The trickiest thing on this was braking hard without abs on race pads. Holy crap did they wanna lock fast! I may have laid a few Smokey patches along the way 😂
Dude, you just made my birthday. The EVO is one of my favorite cars and you just so happened to upload this video today of all days. I got an ‘02 OZ Rally Lancer myself. I hope to drive an EVO one day. Thank you for this!
Wow so much memory, I remember travelling to Asia when I was a kid, 90"s Nissans, Toyotas, Hondas etc, and in a never ending traffic jam, a dark grey (or black ?) Evo 1, with the Evolution badge in red. The 4G63, not the best sounding engine, but the power delivery, and the chassis, one day man, one day, I'll get one :D
I'm so glad to see a model like this, there are only a few videos with this kind of Mithubishi cars, but even more that it's a race car, absolute gold.
Why wouldn't you daily a F1 car? If you're a real car enthusiast then you would daily any car, period. A le mans prototype, an F1 car, a sowiet tank, a Caterpillar 797B, bro I would daily a NASA-Crawler-Transporter you're just lacking the enthusiasm and skill.
@@camdenmiller7369 Thank you for increasing my vocabulary. Do you know the NASA-Crawler-Transporter ? If you do then why call my comment idiotic, you hurt my feelings and now I'm sad and crying. You made me so sad, I will have trouble parallel parking my Caterpillar 797B when I get home.
Jiggling that gear and saying " oh, we've lost our clutch", reminded me of my 720 pick-up😂😂😂. Funny now, but used to get me mad a bit. Nice videos as always, especially because it's a manual older car.
These are the best out of all the evolution. 123 they dont make them like that anymore 😎. Remember the first one I saw back in 95 in jamaica. Awsome cars.
I remember one of the few things we improved post build about our track bmw was the shift linkage. They'd cut one up and welded it together with a few spot welds.... when you're on the track you don't hold back so the spot welds tore. :) It's been properly welded now, it can probably pull the entire car.
@@xaviergl Fair play, apart from fuel even standard evo's are absolutely fine to daily - just when you remove all the interior, sound deadening, harnesses, have no door locks, ac, and suspension that has about 3mm of travel then not so much haha
BarbecuedPossum well her’s is stock but can still go thru a full tank in less than 200km. They’re not that bad to drive casually once you’re used to the clutch
@@xaviergl God damn, I get more out of a tank with mine that sounds odd? Stock clutches are a piece of piss too mine is 400/400 but still on stock clutch, right on the limits of it
The perfectly sized TD05 and exhaust manifold twin scroll setup really helps the low and midrange. I know because I have an evo with an aftermarket T3/T4 and its noticably slower from 2-4k. I think the RS models have less turns lock to lock. With a softer OEM style spring and a normal non outrageous organic clutch they are fine for daily.
oh and on that note, you should deffinately try out european wannabe sports cars....Renault especially offers old Laguna 3. That car shine in no way. BUT....if you get correct piece, it will have 4WS system, 2.0T engine and if you get real lucky, even LSD on that front axle. Really wierd feeling of driving heavy car trying to be small and light...and it kinda works. With another feature, SHORT 6 gear gearbox limiting you at 205KPh, you can have some thrill even with like 220HP or whatever that thing makes. More than plenty for country roads, even with real weight of that car.
Awesome little car. It's so refreshing to see manual cars with short gearing. It looked super fun to drive. Props also for figuring out what went wrong with the clutch pedal!!
Love the video and apresheate the efforts and the great video and sound quality , you seem to be a very nice man and I like , how the excitement comes through in your videos , it really hypes me up , because the evo 1 is one of my dream cars ! Continue producing great content like this :)
Excellent video! Man, that Evo 1 is a beast! Sounds mean as hell man. I still can't believe this car weighed a bit over 2800 pounds (GSR model) with that kind of power. Even the RS model, it's basically 1,000 pounds lighter than the Evo X too! the Evo 123's are my favorites. Plus, lots of engine/trans stuff can always be replaced with the DSM stuff if you really need it too! :D

The owner is an awesome guy and a hell of a driver. I've seen this thing in action at a trackday looks like a lot of fun
agreed on both accounts!
Blows my mind that ppl build these cars to go in straight lines. It’s made for twists and turns. Everyone should experience a evo in their life
Awd + turbo + straight line = easy activity
Yeah, but they are also great for street racing. There aren’t that many cars that can keep up to them during an illegal quarter mile.
For me, who am French, it's so exotic to watch your videos, I love it !
Thank you! I hope you liked the alpine a110 video from a while back. Different style video but I was so in love with the car

That exhaust sounds so good.
These are the best out of all the evolution. 123 they dont make them like that anymore 😎. Remember the first one I saw back in 95 in jamaica. Awsome cars.
123 were the slowest of them all
The first 3 are awesome. There’s something raw about them that the later models are missing. I prefer the Evo 2 RS.
