Modified Mitsubishi Evolution X GSR - One Take

- As the production of Mitsubishi's Evolution X comes to a close, we have a go in this canyon-ready Evo X SE. Though not the most luxurious car, these Evo's are a riot to drive in anger. And a few key modifications can really sharpen the chassis and improve performance.

This is my EVO X. I'm in the passenger seat. Matt was very professional when driving my car. After the taping Matt stayed around and we all talked about cars. In the beginning I said it was a 2010. My mistake. I bought a 2010 Nissan Frontier 4x4 a week prior to filming and I had that year on my mind. My EVO is a 2013.
Thanks for sharing your car Scott!
UNACCEPTABRU.
On Snake they limited parking to just a small spot. Even in that spot it's marked for only 1 hour.
no worries man! nice evo!
Do you still have the Evo?
A maturely modified Evo is a perfect Evo.
WHY AM I SEEING DOUBEL? TO MATT FARAHS?
You might want to edit that sentence
Why am I seeing double? Two Matt Farahs?
Rottensteam, it's just Farahs. Farah's is incorrect.
Rottensteam You misunderstood me, but ok.
Vlad B You make no sense.
Always loved the Evo x personally my favorite of them all.The shape,the way they sound under throttle,just a truly amazing car and I can hope to get one someday their the coolest things.Subtle looking yet still catches the eyes with the hood and small details on it that lets you know it means business .
Finally, a guy that let you drive his Evo x.
these guys... i tell you...
Lmaooo it's true 😂😂
To think they stopped making these in march of this year. The car has been going strong for almost 10 years!
no more evos??
yeah 2015 in the US was the last year.
PatsNation fucking EVS?!?! www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/mitsubishi-confirms-evo-successor
+james hartley evos are discontinued unfortunately but have been going since early 90's hopefully we will see a new mitsubishi sports car becausr the evo is done
MegaMrpenny yeah i know they been out since 90's just didnt know they stopped making them. wish they could at least bring out some Limited edition models in future
RIP Evo .... Waiting for depreciation then ima swoop in
You're going to be waiting quite a while, these cars hold their value.
especially now that you can't buy a new one
that isn't going to happen. evos hold their value really well.
Unless our worst nightmare happens and they become coveted like some sort of old ferrari or something and get bought up and hidden in garages as the prices soar into the retarded money. :(
seen a Evo 8 at a local dealer for 13k... which isnt bad.
Jesus I love Evos they look so good and sound amazing.
I love clean and simple-looking Evos. They are beautiful without extreme body kits or super massive GT Wing.
VVarrio I agree. The factory rear spoiler is always the best. Both the Evo and the STi look good on their own stock spoilers. Damn, Mitsubishi... You f*cked up big time when you decided to discontinue the evo!
Finally! A proper Evo X review! Not overly modified and it's on a dry road. Nice video Matt!
Really tastefully done. I love the clean look with no rear spoiler.
Simnett Nutrition i thought the first thing I'd do when i bought my x was ditch the wing but it grows on you
That spot on the windshield though
that little spoiler is so beautiful. compliments the car perfectly
Thanks for this one Matt, I just decided to keep my EVO and dump a bunch of money into freshening it up because nothing I've driven has been quite like it while still having 4 doors. I think people give Subaru too much credit saying they are basically the same car. That hasn't been my experience at all. I've already owned the "hard to drive" cars and I just love the thing for fun mountain drives, it inspires so much confidence but still feels really fun.
Yes! I've been waiting for another Evo vid especially the Evo X!
Keep it up Matt! I live for these reviews! So much inspiration seeing other's builds. Don't listen to the hate. You are a respectful, and safe, driver.
For a small period of my life, was obsessed with these Evo 10s. Still love them very much. They look amazing when modified. Some nice wheels, lowered, maybe front lip / splitter. The stock wing is beautiful. Have the potential to easily be crazyyy fast. They sound amazing. I have heard somee loud Evos. Heard this thing handles like a dream, even stock suspension. The Recaro seats are lovely.
But it's cool this owner went the sleeper route with his exhaust, that's respectable too. :) I'd definitely go GSR just to have the manual trans. I'd just try my best to ignore the loud ass 5th gear on the freeway lol.
Shoutout to 370zforme
Finally an Evo X
is this Rick Harrison's pawn shop?
You never know what is gonna come through that door
No, this is Patrick.
Why is this a thing? Please explain lol
+Fantasma 115 I have no idea. it's become a meme for some reason and the guy on the left looks kinda like Rick Harrison so I just kinda went with it
😂😂
Two bearded grown men having a little fun! Scott is a funny guy though
He looks more like you than you do
This guy evo build is exactly how i want to build mine. Close to stock just ad a little sound light tune
Matt, it is apparent that pilot super sport tires are often mentioned in your videos. I found myself buying them for my car just from the popularity. I hope you are getting some kind of kick back for the continuing talk on your channel about them. Honestly I believe anytime someone mentions any manufacture on your videos you should be compensated by that company especially if you approve of the product
not only am I not getting a kickback, I was put on a waiting list for 8 months to buy a set at full retail price for my Corvette.
keep up the good work Matt, been watching you for years, I will always support your channel!
EVO X!! Finally!)) Thank you!
Finally an evo X vid.
You know what the owner of that Evo needs? Dillon optics. They make the best sunglasses in the world cause they're from a company that makes scopes for sniper rifles. No.... your eyes aren't sweating. That's the matte black coating that makes them look awesome. They're expensive but they're worth it. Dillon optics are the official eyeware of the smoking tire.
You two make a good father son team
With a bit of help from Nissan "helping" to run Mitsubishi we'll get a new EVO I think. As it is their in-the-eye car, it is currently missed. I think Nissan will suggest to bring it back.
we can hope
That would be ideal if they have a partnership/ownership deal going on. Not everyone can afford the GTR and it would definitely enter into a competitive market right now.
Nope, I doubt it. Mitsubishi is going in a completely different direction and no reason for Nissan to revitalize the Evo when they have the GTR. Mitsubishi is going to be an eco-friendly type of car brand now and the Evo just didn't fit in that picture.
It's been two years and still nothing.. 😭😭 Well I'm never getting rid of my X.
valcked even if they did it would be flappy paddle poop
Liked the video before the ad even finished bc EVOOOOOOO
RRE are good people. I'm running their catless headers on my '07 Eclipse GT. Quite satisfied with the extra ~20hp over stock
Hey matt this is a great series u have going..... awesome cars and great host
Goodfellas reference, nice job Farah!
Hey Matt 6 months ago made a post about if I should get a gt350r or a c6 z06 and I took your advice and got the gt350r two days ago. Gotta say this is a amazing car I love it.
The Evo owner looks just like Matt
You sure that's not your twin/brother!? Lol, nice video as always.
I thought that too lol. My first reaction was, wait, how come there are two Matt Farahs?!
This seems like the subtle, more user friendly version of my friends car. He has a 420AWHP Evo X with a sequential and Varis kit. It's great to look and it's a blast to be in but as one could assume it's not quite the perfect daily lol.
honestly, i feel like everyone always comments about the Evo interior... its a compact economy car that was turned into a rally car for the street from the factory. for what you get with the recaro's and the drive train i dont see what more you could want, they didnt over do it with a bunch of unnecessary crap which to me is a classic less is more situation. esp these new cars with all their fake crap, i feel like true car ppl would honestly just appreciate the inside of an evo... idk. i also like the interior of race cars...
Love that clean look on this Evo, keeping it lowkey
At work watching this...makes me want to take my Evo X for a canyon run after i'm off lolz
Love my final edition,best car I've had.
@3:07 is that an echo in the car? Oh never mind he's like your doppelganger.
That insect was really bugging me. Get it? GET IT?! What? You don't like my joke? Fine, then [insect your own joke here]
oh my goodness!! i am a Honda Civic Si fan but the Evo GSR is just wonderful. if only it came with a sunroof then i would grab it.
jesussaves13 mine does you need the sss package, sight sound and spoiler. Basically the fully loaded package, I also have the leather interior and aero package but sss will get you a sunroof
Hey Matt, great review with an owner who is great on camera! Would you consider putting the road names back in the title, it would be nice to know which roads you are driving on.
No I don't think so. Thanks though!
lol with he's driving speed I dought he'd have the ballz. the cops would hunt him down.
+Brendan that's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. People who do dumb shit on the snake and the photographers who watch them are responsible for that.
+Brendan you are absolutely ridiculous. 1. One out of every 15 of his videos are even filmed in Malibu. 2. There are hundreds of photo/video/bloggers that hang at the snake. 3. The police presence at the snake is there to help alleviate the stupidity of the drivers there. Matt is experienced and doesn't cross yellows, tailgate, etc... Quit being a hater and enjoy a fellow car enthusiast.
+Brendan go look at articles about "mulholland street racers" from the 1980's dude. That has been the single most popular driving spot in Southern California since literally before I was born. To blame what people do in their own cars up there on me is fucking laughable.
This owner is a legend. Wouldn't have minded 30min drive there.
My brother has a 2011 GSR putting our 450 at the wheels. Pretty damn impressive for a 4 banger.
phreak1118 what turbo?
Jesus at first I couldn't tell which one was you
I like how this guy does it
Hey Matt.
The 2F2F evo you mentioned is actually in Norway. (At least the "hero car" where everything was done to work, they obviously had stunt doubles etc.)
The silver R34, the eclipse spyder and a Charger is also in Norway.
New "One Takes" to go with my breakfast. Thank you
It's nice that Matt invited his brother to the canyons :D
yea buddy, I bet he has just as much fun with the Nissan as that evo. TITAN SWAP!
A little constructive criticism? Try gearing up in corners and you'll really "get a flow going" when you use the torque and don't run out of rpm before the exit.
So many vids I hear many unnecessary rpms then equally unnecessary gear changes.
3:05 i love the goodfellas remark there lmao.
Are these two brothers? Lol! Nice car
Drove this car for 16 minutes seems he liked it
That bug on the camera is driving me crazy
Evo - amazing rally car !
An Evo without a wing just looks like it left the house after forgetting to put on pants.
hits was such an enjoyable video! Nice job!
Beautiful Evo... I feel you on being smog legal in California. Hot smogging is definitely a pain
when he says don't take this the wrong way at 10:28 google thinks I said "OK GOOGLE"
Nice goodfellas quote
I love TST and I'm obsessed with Evo's, but I wish this would have been modded more.
RRE is the best when it comes to EVO's. they built my IX and 10 years later it's still alive taking all my abuse.
Matt with a mustache
I'm pretty sure he has his air pressures front to back reversed. You want to have a higher pressure in the front tire to decrease understeer. I know it may seem a bit counterintuitive compared to say drag racing or off-roading but... um... Well, too bad. It is what it is. ;)
lol love the pause when he said 2010 Evo...ten. I would have done the same thing.
Next time you're in CT, I would gladly let you flog my X. Doesn't even have to be for a One Take; I would just appreciate your input on how I've set up my car so far.
sweet car, nice guy, needs that big ol' evo wing though :P
Personally, I love evo because I grew up with 1G and 2G DSM.
Matt ............... you ' ve a twin !
Matt is that your brother?!! Lol
Please clean your lenses and the windshield before filming , great videos Matt
This makes me miss my old Evo X so bad. Too bad someone had to run a stop sign and wreck the car for me. One day... one day.
I like driving the 5 speed of my evo, you always know intuitively what gear your are on. My previous car a GTI VR6 had a 6 speed and so does my brothers STI and sometimes I found myself not knowing what gear I was in. also there is at least in these two cars a very annoying catch some times between the middle gears where it feels like there is something preventing you from getting in to next gear.
Solid build Bruh....
Hey Scott time to get yourself a Cadillac brother. Let it go.
trying to decide what turbo im getting on mine. i wish i would have gotten one earlier, because it seems like the best deals on turbos were the journal bearing FP Black and MAP EF4. Both 550+ WHP bolt-on turbo's. Now the choice is a bolt on GTX35 which is much more expensive, and you'd still need a tubular manifold, and 4in intake, making that nearly as much a kit and then of course full T3 or T4 kits. Which are yet more. I should have gotten a R32 GT-R, but I didnt want something that old. Especially when you consider a 25 year old GT-R is probably a $7K car everywhere but here in the US. Can't justify it.
About weather affecting the evo, I feel colder weather gives me more power, and the heat and altitude rob me to good stuff. About the lowering springs, I want to do it to my evo, but you need the shocks revalved and an rck kit, or it won`t last long.
You two have some chemistry hope you're good friends
That cocoa pebble on the camera
you need some "TheSmokingTire Outlaws" bumper stickers, race on.
Hey Matt, if you ever want one-take an MR with the SST, totally have a volunteer over here.
Nice!
This may be an ignorant question, but have you ever driven the 2016 Mercedes A45 AMG? I love my hot-hatchs and the A45 seems like the top tier sport compact to choose from. Might have been a cool replacement for the Focus RS!
Best ricer from last gen.
How is it rice? The owner even changed the spoiler for a lip?
I absolutely hate seeing Lancer Evolution's and WRX STI's with their spoilers removed, why spend close to 40k (and sometimes over 40k) for a rally car for the streets to have it look like some basic Lancer/Impreza? you want something conservative then go buy a bloody German car, that's how i look at it.
Because spoilers add drag, draw unnecessary attention, and preferences.
+Brad Q it also creates downforce and high-speed stability, which equals faster lap-times.
Dee T Not everyone use there evo for circuit racing and if your cars a dedicated track car these defiantly better spoiler option out there.
Shouldn't bother you unless someone did it to your car while you were asleep. No reason it should
I love the Evo and STi, but I hate the spoilers. IMO they look 10x better without and spoilers have pros and cons anyways.
I wish the car was louder
ets open dump will do that!
Digging that back alley shirt
The intro had me thinking you were about to reveal your twin brother! :O
My wife also forgets her real age. A 3 year diffirence is not that big.
YES FINALLY
FINALLY 🔥
Around 8:47 they talk about how come the dyno says less HP at 6500-7000rpm but in the driver seat it feels more, because the air being rammed into the engine is greater than just sitting in a room! The more RPM and speed the more intake flow. This is why M5 E60s that rev to like 10k can do 212mph no problem but the new F10 M5s cant do 212mph because they can't rev as high.
Anthony Abelardo so you're talking about gearing ratios?
+macros555554, no, higher RPM means it would eat air faster than lower RPM as long as the exhaust flow can keep up with the intake flow
That doesn't have to do with top speed is what I meant. I know what you're saying but more air would not make your gearing be higher
+macros555554, I didn't talk about gearing at all. How come the BMW M5 E60 can do 211MPH no problem and the new F10 M5 has a hard time even doing 200mph? I know the BMW M5 E60 was derived from F1 but I'm unsure how come it can do 211MPH other than revving to like 8.5k RPM. Valves?
Mitsubishi fuck yeah :D
On a second note, why are there two Matts in this video
Please do more evo x's matt! Maybe 400-500hp ones.
must have been hard to resist the temptation to take it on a rally track where it belongs!
