The Mitsubishi Evo 3 is a mystery to me. I've driven the Mitsubishi Evo in many forms, but never in the forbidden fruit. The Mitsubishi Evo 3 very much feels like a nicer DSM like an eclipse or talon, just a bit more refined. It has a similar motor to the 4G63 in the 2G DSM and it definitely shows.

Man I love this car 😂 Miss you already dude
This was the collab I was quietly waiting for!
Love this collab top favorite car TH-camrs!
I was waiting for this evan (i also saw the Is300 in the back)👀
Evo 3 is my dream car
Where's your shop? I'm in Texas too
Old school evos just take me back to the good old rally days when Mitsubishi was at it's prime!
New Zealand is full of old Evo's! This makes me nostalgic. And it's weird to see this generation finally being recognised by other countries.
Nah, in Asia, this car already know. But at time, there is no internet.
@@mizumiya_akio yeah I'm sure. Evo's before the 5 just never really had much attention from the worldwide JDM scene
Yeah bro!
Here in the Philippines evo 3 are pretty common I always see those cars left and right and I want to buy a evo 3 or 5 or maybe a r32 gtr in the future
@@jmdriftboy I hope so, in Malaysia, the price got sky rocket and the limited of car to be important. Most of Evo 3 for what I see in my country are based of proton wira or lancer platform. Even lancer platform also got higher price like insane.
It's not just rally inspired, it's rally homologated. Group A rally had some pretty stringent homologation requirements, more than the successor regulations. Hence Evos 1-6 share a lot of WRC car features. Someone should hook up an anti-lag system instead of the BOV :)
So you want him to go through turbos every two weeks?
true rally anti-lag is extremely rough on the turbo and would be really expensive to maintain, especially if you did it to a 30 year old car
My evo 7 still has the factory anti-lag system on it
@@OnlyDominican yes, from Evo IV onwards they had solenoid activated secondary air injection!
@@jevonbigga6172 Standard turbo's are what get abused from Anti lag, i've personally ran a 152,000km Old turbo at 380whp with ALS for 16,000kms+ an it didn't die,
However Turbo tech of today an materials used warrant that you can properly use ALS Fp use Billet wheels much more tougher than the standard turbo,
The evo is like an anime character that had underwent massive character development and got nerfed by the end of the series. Not because the X was bad, but the final season felt like it wasn't needed.
Highschool dxd
So, in other words, Vegeta?
Basically like The Wire
As a child, I remember seeing an evo3 for the 1st time and instantly becoming obsessed with the evo. Love this video. Greetings from Jamaica.
Old School Mitsubishi at heart here. Evos are JDM AF because they were all imported (with 7 bolt block and EIII16G turbo) whereas all DSM's were manufactured here in Illinois. Current owner of a 91 Galant VR4, 95 Mighty Max, 99 Mirage, 99 Eclipse Spyder and 2000 Mirage. And 91 Miata. I might have an issue 🤔
Yessss! Been waiting for this! Evo 7 is my favourite but I found your channel through your Evo videos back in high school so I’m hooked before even clicking
No guys, its not "technically a DSM". Every part on the car is different than the DSM counterparts. And back in the day all the DSM guys drooled over the EVO motor counterparts...
I have a evo 2. I have a 92 awd dsm. The dsm feels like a yacht compared. Longer gearing, shitty chassis, shitty steering, and lots of dead weight. An early evo is raw as fuck.
@@rudimartinez7452 100% agree. The Evo 1, 2 and 3 were bad ass cars compared to the later models. I had a lot to do with them in my younger years of drag racing.
Not bad but still a huge fan of Tommyfyeah's Pleasure Evo, the things a monster.
Yeah me too but that's a strictly an obnoxious track toy nothing he would ever want to drive on the street it would annoy the hell out of anybody I'd much rather start with this one and make it the way I want
you understand that this car is basically a daily driver..
@@Takenski no he doesn't
@@donaldmokgale3123 you really don’t follow evan on socials do you 💀
That car is so sick
Oh, I've been waiting for this one! Two of my personal favorite TH-camrs in one video, driving one of my favorite cars on TH-cam. Love that little Evo. Good to see you together, boys.
I've had my Evo6 for a couple years now, running 400bhp, coilovers etc all the supporting mods. The raw feeling you get driving these 90s evos are something else.. just can't get anything close to way these things drive! Such great cars
I had a brand new 1998 Mitsubishi Mirage DE coupe in High School. One of my cousins is driving it now, it’s been through a few family members and a few different states and still kicking.
Yup. Getting one. This generation Evo is probably the least filmed Evo ever. This was much needed.
It's crazy that I've been following some youtubers so long they're like a facet of my life. They all have families, or their own established companies. I'm so proud of ya'll
I am an x owner but the 4g63 engine is just something so special!
I totally forgot it was RHD. I'm sitting here watching this while saying " David's not even driving it. That blows."
Then I realized...........I'm an idiot and he was driving the whole time hahaha
Absolutely love the old school Evos, especially this one🔥. Evo 5 has been my favorite Evo since the first time i used one in Gran Turismo.
Have always loved the first gen Evos. To this day they are still so cool in my eyes, especially considering they were Rally cars for the street because of early homologation rules. Even with just 400-500 HP on tap, they felt like they had more. Down here in the Bahamas years back, you could see a couple on the road being daily driven but not anymore, you only spot them every once in a while now
Such a time capsule of a car, god I love these old evo's. Jackie Chan doing the 270* slide to park in "Who Am I" gave me the bug for these cars when I was a kid. Glad this one is in good hands, these cars need to be saved!
Jackie Chan also drove a evo 3 in thunderbolt
It's not "technically" a DSM at all. The DOHC 4G63T engine existed before DSM's began production in the US. It was used in the Galant VR4 starting in 1987, a good 3 years before DSM's were sitting on showroom floors. The engine in that EVO III has some similarities to a 2g DSM engine, but simply having a 4G63 under the hood does not make anything a DSM as they were used on a ton of other Mitsubishi vehicles during this time period.
Straight rolled my eyes wit dat dsm coms from tdib lol. Shanks has a nice evo3
@@subklr176 agreed, beautiful EVO III which is not a DSM 😂
Yep, true JDM right there, as apposed to everything Japanese being called JDM now.
The evo 5 is my favorite gen evo, but I love the evo 3. I’d happily drive either one.
Technically not a DSM. DSM was joint venture ( diamond star motors) Chrysler and MMC mostly in the US. They made talons, the eclipse and lasers. Eventually DSM became Mitsubishi North America …..and it’s still a 4g63T
Evan really built a stunning car here. It’s so clean and so pure. It’s very different than his typical builds and he really nailed it on this evo.
Patiently waiting for that GR review my blue dude
For real
David: "What are we in evan?"
My brain: "love"
So I realized that the DSM line really were built different because if you look at the cars they used to produce (Idk how many units of each one), its amazing how its still part of the biggest "what if" conversation with what they had to deal with. Still shocked if they would've existed today 👀
Met Evan when I worked at a JDM shop in Dallas. Super cool dude down to earth. Was pretty dope selling him his 2jz for his Supra.
So "technically" my 1990 eterna zr4 is a dsm. 20yrs of owning it and never knew lol. JDM is life brother! Keep up the vlogs.
Love from 🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿
This is difficult to watch. A DSM is an American car. The Evo III is not a DSM. The first 4g63 was used in 87. That's where it started, not the 2g, not the 1g... The 2G actually has some interesting differences between the Evo CD and CE9A cars. This Dandelion CE deserves a proper review. Beautiful car in a super rare color.
It's cuz shanks just likes to regurgitate what he reads off old forum posts or bookface.
Definitely not the way too review a rally icon comparing it to the dsm. Evo3 is in a category of its own along with the wrx of its time.
Yeah listening to this was really really hard lol
Picking up my EVO 2 with EVO 3 aesthetics and a TD06 in a few weeks. I could hardly wait 😭
Yeah Evo > STi anytime of the week. To bad Evos are discontinued now. Legendary vehicles the 4G63 was so much ahead!
STIs pretty much got discontinued as well sadly. Subaru said they won’t consider an STI until they have an electric drive train designed for it
Pre evo 8 Evos = GC8 STI Type Ra/type R… Both are freakin incredible, both got worse with age…
What a great build in a timeless Evo 3!! Im still a little preferable to the X (Owned 2), but WOW!! You can literally see the nostalgia from this classic. Great video!
I missed the Evo 3 so much and I hoped they bring it back till this day
Those were rad. Last of the lighter smaller platform cars. Gorgeous. Really surprised they were 4 lug the dsms were 5. Figured they shared more parts than they did. I had evo III parts on my Dsm for sure.
So happy to see these youtube collabs
Love my Evo 5..... Old school Evos are where its at
Except the 4, the 4 can be forgotten 😅
@@mitchbuchannon6637 whats wrong with the 4?
@@ozdunder beginning of the evos being built as road cars first not rally cars first
@@mitchbuchannon6637 ah ok, fair enough
EVO 1-5 are what i like the most. 6 is still somewhat likable, but anything past it is EH
That's when Mitsubishi was on there game
I love Evan Shanks evo, I was low key looking at a import evo, and almost bought one instead of my 13 tangerine STI
Earliest memory of the Lancer Evo 4 is when Jackie Chan drives one (chase scene) in the film "Who Am I?" Impossibru
love shanks never will forget watching his video on how to drive stick in his scion been a fan ever since
The Dandelion Yellow CE9A and the Nayez Blue Pearl CP9A were immortalized by two movies named respectively "Thunderbolt" by Jackie Chan and "The Legend Of Speed" back in the mid-90s among that generation of enthusiast from the cantonese diaspora around the SEA region.
To me these films would be the "Fast and Furious" Car culture films of that era that exposed my peers to the still contained JDM culture.
Back then my country could recieve a metric ton of surplus JDM front end from hacked up scrap cars on a weekly basis due to Japan's 5 year shaken mandate, Many japanese car owners would rather trade up and scrap their cars over some minor collision so the alternative DSM scene that i know of kinda started this way, just with discount lancer and mirage chassis instead of AWD eclipse chassis over at the states.
This one really hits home seeing that the EVO 3 has finally cleared the import requirements, more people could get to taste these forbidden machines over at the western hemisphere.
Good suspension on them they drive like little awd rocket go carts. I had 3 different 3s in Japan with many different iterations, 7 different turbos (including the 68hta as well), etc. evo 3 is a much more raw and unforgiving evo to drive vs the later evos but I love it
love seeing two of my favorite youtubers collabing
The 4g63 was used in eclipses from 1990-1999
love all TDIBs content, been watching since like 2014 "12 reasons to own a mustang"
This is how you build cars, kids. No unnecessary bling, all go and no show. Once you build a car properly, the beauty will come from its natural form. Look at how nice this Evo sits. Best part is, it will drive and perform great but is reliable because you allocated time and energy into areas that need it.
The biggest mistake I made was not buying a Lan Evo 1, 2, & or 3 cuz was waiting for 4 and up since figured already own a GSX so no need to get a 4 door one.... Then the 4 N 5 became legal and the prices doubled n tripled. DAMN!
forgot the Galant VR4 the 1st True EVO
That’s gotta be my favourite evo I love the look of the old ones compared to the 8th 9th and 10th gen
Reminds me of the 22b abit with the more uninterrupted straight lines and seemingly lower roof line.
Actually the Evo three is not the earliest Evo. The earliest was the Mitsubishi Galant VR -4 . That was way before the lancer ever came out and that vr4 was in the USA from 1989
Awesome sauce! You need to find someone with a Dodge Spirit R/T or Shadow Shelby CSX.
I never realized how cool this guys job is, he gets to drive sick cars for a living
Used to have a EVO 3 here in NZ, I sold it to finance buying a pretty trick Nissan GTI-R Pulsar, the Baby Godzilla. It was chock full of NISMO goodies, and was a real hoot. It, like the EVO was a Japanese import. Due to the 2nd hand Japanese import boom of the late 80s thru to the 2000s, loads of JDM homologation models ended up here (we drive on the same side of the road as the Japanese) EVO's, STI's, Gallant VR-4's, Celica GT4's, also tons of Skyline GTRs, Supras, Silvia S13/14/15s, RX-7s, Type R Civics and Integras. All these models were sold new in New Zealand as well, but the imported ones far outnumber the NZ new ones. Sadly they, once common, are getting thin on the ground, partly due to being the car of choice of young drivers, but many are now being bought by overseas buyers and shipped out. Last year i was with a friend who was buying a Mustang from the U.S from an importer, and next to the port where the importer had his warehouse, there was a yard that was a JDM lovers wet dream. A couple of R32 Skyline GTR,s some early EVOs a EK Type R civic and a couple of others, all been bought by overseas buyers and leaving the country. Ones that are still here are going for stupid money. Wish i'd kept some of the ones ive owned. :-)
8:20 is a great quotable line
it looks good in yellow - like the one in Jackie Chan's movie "Thunderbolt"
The car owner is the most knowledgeable car guy you ever had on your channel.
9:40 FYI "ETC カードをいれてください。”, which means "Please insert your ETC card."
This is the best car you’ve reviewed in a long time bro. God shit
You should definitely make your way down to the freedom factory and collaborate with cleetus
that hks exhaust sounds amazing!
Nice,!!!!My dad owns a Evo 6 Tommi Makenin Edition. He bought it brand new!!
Beautiful jdm dream car. I had a first gen dsm turbo- Plymouth Laser 5sp awd turbo.
Ah yes been waiting for this review! Shout out to Shank!!!
It’s like my latest play through of Tokyo Xtreme Racer. ❤
As a fellow evo owner, it's refreshing to see a good condition 3
These were the good years of the EVO's classic and much lighter than a EVO 10 and great motor also!
Literally my favorite era of the evo, the Evo3 being my personal favorite
Hell yea best evos are 1-3 , now you gotta review a 2g eclipse😝
Evan is one of the greats. Loved this collab
Who those who don't know. The side skirts that say Evolution 3 on are a huge flex because they're super hard to come by
I recommend a collab with “miguel dsm” to review his evo swapped eclipse
You uhhhh gonna review that IS300 chillin' in the back, or somethin'?
4:45
Join the Evo 123 Owners Club for those that love everything early Evo 123. They are amazing machines, highly underrated.
when i first saw the new eclipse it made me want to throw hands
That is exactly how I would have set it up on GT 2 (keep in mind I already owned a z31 and rocked 80's supra's by then) lmao :)
I’m currently on the market for my first Evo. I’m extremely torn on whether to go with an older Gen like a Evo 4 or a newer Gen like a Evo 9. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I can’t believe the current price of Evo 3’s, my plan was to buy one before I bought my Roush, but ended up buying the Roush anyway.
Paid 12k for mine in 2002 so around 7k usd
How bad are they for a 3? Are 4-6s any cheaper?
@@niko1600 20-30 grand easy, jdmexpo is a prime example 🙄
Ever since I had a 2g talon I wanted one of these
Yesss yesss yesss!!!!!!! Been waiting for this
I’m interested in a more complete build sheet for this car. I want to know how to build my 1988 Galant VR4 😋
Depends what you want out of it. To keep it a nice street car fit an evo 3 exhaust manifold, turbo, o2 housing, and a mandrel 2.5 inch exhaust. Fit a good flowing but not huge intercooler and 2.25 inch pipe kit. Change the MAF sensor to 2g or evo 8, fit evo 3 (560cc) injectors or bigger if you want E85 and a fuel pump. Fit ARP head bolts, get a tune and turn up the boost to 20psi and you're done. Then start looking for a 4 bolt LSD rear end.
I own the lancer passenger car which this evo looks like.... Can attest to the dash lasting longer than other newer cars.
i swear TDB, AdamLZ and Evan should make an Initial D themed video together with all these JDM
Heeeeey good combo the blue and Evan!
Still my dream car until now
Finally, I'm not the only person who's scared to drive on the passenger side in my own car, especially when someone drives the way that I do.
The crossover I didn’t know I needed
Hey dudeinblue you must be on an Evo craze 😂😂 I must say I’m a fan of your show I just want to let you know I would love for you to view my 2001 Ap1 S2000
On a side note, this whole time I thought Evan was driving. I have no idea how I even thought that lmao
Iam Subscribed to both your guy's channel watch you all the time guys keep the cool videos coming love it :) i own a 95 S14 and a 75" 280z :)
oh snap, a crossover episode
I will literally never sell my evo, it's really the perfect car. The only thing is there's a lot of them that are clapped out, just like 240s. They were cheap for a while, the wrong people got their hands on them, and now they're more expensive and half destroyed
I feel you, i bought a evo4 last year and even getting good parts and oem parts are a nightmare
@@henninghansen3909 I can only imagine it's worse for you with a 4, than it is for me having a 9. And it's still a pain, couldn't even find shifter cables for months
@@MoonRammer i couldnt even find stock shocks and dampers for it, where i live most coilovers cant pass the EU regulations, but im still keeping it as Long as i live. They are addictive as hell
I honestly thought Evan was driving but then I felt stupid lmao
just bought my tickets 😊😊😊
This has to be 1st time I heard the word DUDE in ur videos 🤣 another great video with a kladsik.
If my working Rx8 R3 was better looking with the eyes, I would tell you to take it for a ride in DFW.
Wasn’t expecting this today
Wasn’t expecting this
Been waiting for this one
April 9th thats the same day as Drift League
