SO HAPPY your doing a respray of the OEM color instead of a wrap. GOOD CALL. Most likely this is the original paint or at least most of it is, it's just faded. The rear wing is actual carbon fiber not fake and it does produce significant downforce over 100 mph. In 2003 I believe I paid around $30k for my Evo 8 in Wicked White 👍such a great car, If I win this thing? Talk about a dream come true. Regret selling my Evo's of yesteryear. Life just happens and you have to sell things to get buy. My Evo was one of those things. Whoever wins this car, Just please take care of it and leave it stock. Its a piece of racing history and needs to be enjoyed, but preserved.👍
@Throttl no media blast cabinet? Makes things easier for preping valve covers and brake calipers. Since the yellow isn't correct on the car, i would choose a more updated yellow to paint it. Good job guys🏆💪
Very nice! My advice: the exhaust needs to be mounted higher... Looks like it is sagged lower than it should. Overal: very nice one-of-a-kind original EVO!
Evo 5 was dandelion yellow and evo 8 was lightning yellow and they are way different. Dandelion yellow is yellow with orange hue and lightning yellow is more of a dull yellow
Your guys work through and team chemistry never fails to impress me. You guys always work so hard keep up the good work. I can't wait till the Evo is done and we can get a Saab😂😂😂
The R34 GTR never came from factory in midnight purple 1 (LP2) according to the registry, so there's a mixup somewhere, it's a repaint or it's a unique car?
Devin Niemela's Yellow Evo 8 rebuild ruined watching anyone else's build... especially so shortly after his build. Devin's attention to detail when it comes to restoration are second to none
@@RunningSolo negative sir. He said POWDERCOATING not spray painting. Not gonna lie, y'all dropped the ball on this evo by cutting the corner and using spray paint instead of proper powdercoating. That shit is just gonna flake and peel off.
You shouldn’t powder coat calipers because it causes them to retain heat, something that is bad for a braking system. Do people do it? Yes. Will it make a difference on a street car? Probably not.
I feel like doing all the details, painting calipers and wheels, touching up the engine compartment, new tailights, then send it for a total repaint? Isn't that backwards? Overspray, dust, just seems counterproductive?
I recommend staying away from masterpro wheel bearings. Get precision; or any other brand. Masterpro bearings typically won’t make it much longer than the year they’re warrantied for, and more often than not will even go out before then.
my s10 minitruck was Canari yellow. having that truck for 20 years (until it was stolen and crushed a year ago last month) really made me love yellow on vehicles. so much so that i always tried to get my friends to put something yellow on their cars. as a joke one time i even snuck one of my buddy's keys and took his valve covers off and sprayed them yellow and reinstalled them. it took him about a month to realize what happened. he ended up leaving them because his car was black so that pop of yellow in the engine bay actually looked pretty good. lol
Ion gonna lie. That sick spray job gonna last a cool 8-9 months. Then it will fade and chip. Budget building an evo is not the move. Im 10k deep in my 8 and it needs about another 8k just to have her restored with basic goodies. These cars are not cheap. So anyone trying to budget build an evo. Goodluck
I really hope you guys replace the USDM Rear Bumper to a JDM Rear Bumper cause the fitment of the exhaust looks goofy with the USDM bumper and overall looks weird.

I guess red colored cars fade in sun as bad as yellow ones, but couldn't agree more, this car is every NFS Underground playstation era child's dream
@@Rezisorsstrue. Especially the maxed out Celica and Maxed Out Integra.
shoutout to the camera & editor team ! nice work as always
Would have loved to see you guys powder coat those calipers!!! Need to add a powder coating station in the garage!
Very nice details putting fresh Brembo stickers

We had one .. but we got rid of it 😅
@@RunningSolo plenty of nice, big cabinets on FB marketplace. 💪 Ooo rah hard dog Ricky
Generally wouldn't advise on media blasting rocker covers for obvious reasons...
@@MikeRaymond91 maybe vapor blasting or dry ice blasting then... Something😕
Really enjoying the OEM plus restoration. I love seeing the amazing skills the team has put towards restoring a car to its former glory.
The Yellow colour of Evo 8 looks absolutely nice.😊
That powder coat shop is really good 😅
Patiently waiting on one of the most iconic build. Brian’s silver and blue gtr modernized 🙌🏽
Love the car and the finished product definitely selling the 5 spoke wheels and just going back to the OE wheels with fresh rubber
Car is looking good ! Oem plus is the perfect for this car ! Keep up the great videos
Great job on the red calipers!
Dude, you guys always kill it on the rattle can paint jobs. So sick.
Mantab pak Karim...is are nice Job brother.i not missing to see yours content.#from Malaysian 🙂🤗💪👍👍👍
Part of the crew part of the ship!
Rickies hair on point baby!
Very nice! My advice: the exhaust needs to be mounted higher... Looks like it is sagged lower than it should. Overal: very nice one-of-a-kind original EVO!
Good luck everyone
I love it. I absolutely love this Evo! ❤
Jdm bumpers would look cool
Evo 5 was dandelion yellow and evo 8 was lightning yellow and they are way different. Dandelion yellow is yellow with orange hue and lightning yellow is more of a dull yellow
Lovin' this build a lot
Can't wait for this build to complete
My buddy had one of these in high school, his was all black, was part of the SoCal Evo club apparently, thing was a damn rocket
My best friend had one of these when we were in our 20s... i hated the color but the platform is soooo nice
Did you guys do any engine maintenance? Fluid, lines, gaskets?
you guys really need a parts washing maschine .... and Ricky a Haircut 🤣🤣
also a paint and sandblast cabinet
Hell yeah love this build so far
Your guys work through and team chemistry never fails to impress me. You guys always work so hard keep up the good work. I can't wait till the Evo is done and we can get a Saab😂😂😂
My favorite generation evo 😍
Once it's done sombody is gonna have prestine looking evo am going to miss it 🥺🥺 good job boys
Hi guys Huge fan , watching from NZ , please say you’re changing the rear bumper cover to jdm spec vs the US spec one is terrible 😮
Ricky with the broccoli top mohawk
Great job man. If you want a italian mechanic in your teams, i'm aviable for that!! I go immediatly for work with you.
Ever heard of a media blaster cabinet
Calipers good, valve cover missing primer!

He's even perfecting a perfect paintjob.
@@hiemabedrog I like that does almost everything himself and if he doesn't know how to do something, he isn't afraid to learn
@@hiemabedrogthe paintjobs reminded me a lot to FAST AND FURIOUS DRIFT.
Understandable but imagine people that don’t t have them ,they got another way or idea, and they look 🔥🔥🔥
Dandelion yellow was on the evo 5. its much more pastel
Dandelion yellow looks way better imo
Ricky love your hair
9:13 Didn’t know the evo got a caliper that can dance and talk 🤣🤣🧡
Just got my pin from the live stream in the mail...big thanks throtl
There are like 5 evo give aways right now and it's amazing. This just to show you how amazing these cars are and how desirable they are.
What kind of Paint and Clear are you using for the Breaks and the Valve Cover
Loving the Pokémon sound effects.
Feel like powdercoating the brake calipers and valve cover would have been the move.
I did 😂

@@RunningSolo. Tall tale telling ass. 100% a lie, not powder coat.

Should have at least laid primer down on the bare metal!
Where do you get those Brembo stickers for the calipers,
what brand paint and clear did you guys used on the calipers
ive never seen anyone build a jag yall should do a 2004 jag xj8
sunflower yellow
That EVO is sick but...
If you ever decided to do a DATSUN pickup truck build and sweepstakes I would spend to much money
Goooodnessss!! The Jersey Shore nostaliga hahaa great meme edits 😆🙌🏻
Hey Guys I am watching Many Years Last week only I subscribed.
Please next build do a 2002 Ford Lighting!!
Put some Ralliart livery when you get it back from paint
I feel like doing all the details, painting calipers and wheels, touching up the engine compartment, new tailights, then send it for a total repaint? Isn't that backwards? Overspray, dust, just seems counterproductive?
I just made an order to enter into sweepstakes but didnt get confirmation. only what i ordered
Should have primed the vavle cover before paint.. alot of heat under that hood just saying
Powder coat it
I. LOVE. THIS. CAR.
I wish car brands still made wheels that looked this good
Greetings, they came to Puerto Rico for a project with Sunoco but we do not qualify for the Sweepstakes 🤷♂️

Talking about dandelions would been good to see that meme 😂 oh look a dandelion 😂😊
Must be the last one of the season 🤷♂️
Had a 2003 evo VIII same exact spec. Loved the yellow. Paid 32k new
10:12 that's not a bug, that's a feature
What’s up Quinn, loved meeting you in Texas❤️
Hecha Quinn, lo tenias callaito papo!!!! 🤣🤣🤣

As a guy from South Africa. Plz do a diff car like vw golf or kia cerato sport
ı love your videos good job
Do A pearl mix!
Hello from uk love what you do can just say how high is Ricky’s hair
Piss-Rocket Yellow
According to the GTR registry they never produced midnight purple 1 r34. Only midnight purple 2 and midnight purple 3
Wish this was a tribute car to Brian’s evo
No blasting cabinet?? Hard to imagine.
We ain't profesional... 😂
Jump scare at 7:41 🤯
More great content!!
We need a Quinn "smoked" counter now...
Taking the bug off & starting over is what should be done.
Ion gonna lie. That sick spray job gonna last a cool 8-9 months. Then it will fade and chip. Budget building an evo is not the move. Im 10k deep in my 8 and it needs about another 8k just to have her restored with basic goodies. These cars are not cheap. So anyone trying to budget build an evo. Goodluck
R34....clean, We're's The Fuse box Cover ?
nice mofro Ricky...
Throttle should do a race competition with tj hunt and Dustin to see who builds the faster car
Easier trick to remove the bearing race, heat the race with a torche and it'll fall by itself
Just cause I love Quinn.. hey Quinn, that can be unbolted. 🙃
Wish Wisconsin Evo 8’s looked that good even with the faded paint. 😂
That yellow is a single stage paint job as well. Which fades terribly.
Ricky looks like a mad scientist. 😅
Clean gtr
My boy Ricky looking like a toucan 🤣🔥
Why is there (@14:13) still a missing Enkei branding on the front passenger side wheel? My brain can't take seeing one missing.
Fast&furious gtr foreshadowing??
Stretching the ole vids out sheeeeeeeeeeeeshhh
I really hope you guys replace the USDM Rear Bumper to a JDM Rear Bumper cause the fitment of the exhaust looks goofy with the USDM bumper and overall looks weird.
Please do a jdm evo rear bumper. That USDM rear bumper needs to go
Wouldn’t be surprised if San Diego auto club lied about it being original paint…
You guys need to buy a stripper tank and save yourself the hard manual labour. When are you getting into powder coating calipers and valve covers?
Hmm needs to be widebodied and bagged on some te37’s with a crap ton of useless aero and underglow!
Jdm rear bumper
The whole Throtl team should do a drag race video against each other with your personal vehicles.
