My Evo V looks completely stock on the outside. Ohlins DFV, Evo IX turbo, fuel system upgrades, EvoLink ECU, completely restored factory interior, etc. It's such a great car that I don't think they need to be heavily modified to be fast and/or cool. Excited to see your build!
Only one tiny tip here for anyone !!! when rusty bolts need to be taken out is better to apply WD-40 or something similar like penetrant foam-oil on all bolts and screws but is critical to do this before any attempt of unscrew, it will make the whole process of dismantling way more easy and might also prevent bolts snapping !!!
this build is actually super sane. not ocd levels of clean but still building a car the "right" way on a budget. this is very refreshing as its shaping up to be an insane bang for buck
Awesome video as always TJ and Sabrina. TJ I know you said that the EVO V is going to be a grip track car now but after y’all build it up right and it dominates the track you should reconsider rally sport racing you should build a rally car after this I think you would dominate the rally track.
TJ make sure you take off the shield covering the fuel pipe between the fuel door and the fuel tank. As an ex owner of an EVO 5, the pipe had rusted through. Snow and salt builds up under there in Japan, even on the least rusty Evo's.
If you want the car to be a grip car you need to ditch the stock style bushings for spherical bearings. Even if they're brand new the stock style bushings deflect and basically change your alignment throughout the corner as the car loads up. Racefab makes fully adjustable/ spherical arms for everything in the evo suspension (and chassis braces too). Adam went thru it all on his white evo so just call him up for the sauce lol
TeeeJ, the MK5 is my all time fav of all Evo’s, and personally I love to lil’ rake you’ve got with the suspension settings, remember, if you want to daily it…. You’ll be having passengers in the back…. Be mindful of that! And that yellow on white rims! Awwwwwhhh I’m in love!
+22 will fit thats what i ran. In aus. Built a 2.3 stroker with mivec. Forward facing turbo 3584. Twin pumps with all the fruit. Made 800at all . Was a great car when it ran.
The white wheels are a good choice. Get them ceramic coated it will make your life of keeping them clean so much easier. (Ask me how I know, lol). Also, I'd get those braces powdercoated white as well to tie it in.
I absolutely love the Evo 7-8, this ones nice too for sure! I would have loved to see some 90-00s Volks or Works. Never really seen TJ go with anything hardcore JDM aside from the TE.
I cannot wait to see how this build ends up! GOOD PICK UP TJ! OOH THE REGAS are going to be hard! Hopefully Adam shared specs, because his is DIALED! Also appreciated the beauty before and after shots... Always a missed opportunity for video creators/builders. Killer! PS, got that Sabrina Grey Matters T-Shirt. LOVE IT!
I hope he does he a race alignment with him in the drivers seat. I haven’t seen them do that yet on the channel but for a grip car it makes such a difference. They have to adjust the coilovers to start with so it sounds like when he says a full alignment maybe they’ll show it being done.
Get the anti roll center bump steer kit since you’re going for a grip oriented build and that’s a must have when lowering the car to keep the suspension geometry like oem
Definitely needs a dry ice clean underneath but it does look good in the yellow its lovely 👌 and I lowkey agree with Sabrina the mud flaps suit the car maybe not red but it need some and so does the high ride hight it need to be higher
TJ. If you want my best advise. Change the timing kit immediately. It's our only flaw at Mitsubishi. That and please do this car like the gtr. OEM, time period correct, iconic parts. Don't cheap out. And buy everything DENSO AND AEM MAKES.
TJ Hunt Awesome Video I think it's awesome that you started you already started your Lancer EVO 5 build and I think it looks awesome and I think those white wheels are a great choice
Saw you guys on Saturday. It was cool finally seeing you guys in person instead of over TH-cam Selena is way better in person with the valvoline livery. But for some reason I thought you guys would be a lot taller 😂and I’m a small dude 😂
Have you ever been in a Mitsubishi? Interiors absolute crap. Everything feels cheap Also the designs and they drive absolute bad. But that is just my opinion..
My Evo V looks completely stock on the outside. Ohlins DFV, Evo IX turbo, fuel system upgrades, EvoLink ECU, completely restored factory interior, etc. It's such a great car that I don't think they need to be heavily modified to be fast and/or cool. Excited to see your build!
I want to see. You have a ig page for your car?
I feel like you can do what adam did and completely overbuild the Evo platforms pretty easily without intending to.
I also want to see Ur car
What’s ur Insta
@@roberta9437 @bnr32jason I don't post a ton though.
I love that TJ isn’t constricted by a wheel sponsor. His wheel choices are always hot unlike some other tubers
Those wheels are 🔥
I absolutely love the evo and I absolutely love the fact that you’ve had this beauty hidden for so long! You’re patience is incredible

Helps when you have 20 other equally cool cars to keep you entertained in the meantime lol
That thing looks mint underneath! Like I'd be freaking out if I bought a car like that in Chicago.
What's up Alex wasn't expecting to see you commenting on a TJ video.
Alex @legitStreetCars let's goooo!! 🎉🎉
😂buying a evo 5 and modifying it 3 years later! 😅 You the man teeg keep up the good work 💪
😂😂😂
Also saying it's the first time he's seen it on a lift when it lived there the whole time lol
The white Mazda is still the best build as it was my first watched, trip to New Zealand, all new parts and seeing Sabrina for the first time
@@blackrippinit probably sat in japan and he recently imported it to the usa
this build is actually super sane. not ocd levels of clean but still building a car the "right" way on a budget. this is very refreshing as its shaping up to be an insane bang for buck
Literally you are getting every jdm car I ever wanted on gran turismo in real life, it's so freaking rad
Those mud flaps are worth money 😮
That's crazy they make the car look so dorky. Just like the huge hand guards on dirtbikes.
Awesome video as always TJ and Sabrina. TJ I know you said that the EVO V is going to be a grip track car now but after y’all build it up right and it dominates the track you should reconsider rally sport racing you should build a rally car after this I think you would dominate the rally track.
Such a sweet car and have a feeling it's going to be a monster once it's finished!!! Good purchase TJ!!
Tj the outside just needs a Carbon Fiber front lip and the middle insert of the wing Carbon Fiber 👌
6/23/2024. The day that TJ said “without further ado” properly. Good job my man.
TJ make sure you take off the shield covering the fuel pipe between the fuel door and the fuel tank. As an ex owner of an EVO 5, the pipe had rusted through. Snow and salt builds up under there in Japan, even on the least rusty Evo's.
Farout perfection. The way you're building this is just perfect. Best car you now own.
Absolutely love the yellow with white wheels !
As an Evo (7th gen) owner myself, this content has got me super excited!

That wheel choice and color. Just absolutely fire on the yellow.
Tomei for that 4G63 would be 🤌🏻 chefs kiss
what this channel needs is an s2000. they look so good and can do so much with them
Coilovers make such a big difference. Exhaust and coilovers are very great first 2 mods 1000%.
Norris twin charge kit, none of the big youtubers have done it yet! I'd love to see it done zero lag and all the noises
Maybe it’s because I’m older and these cars were new when I was in my late teens and twenties but I just love all the JDM builds so much.
This might be one of my favorite builds of yours in a while. Love it! 😍
Tj the Evo is looking sick such a rare nostalgic iconic JDM legend to begin with especially being dandelion yellow and what your doing to it 10/10 👍
TeeeJ, the MK5 is my all time fav of all Evo’s, and personally I love to lil’ rake you’ve got with the suspension settings, remember, if you want to daily it…. You’ll be having passengers in the back…. Be mindful of that! And that yellow on white rims! Awwwwwhhh I’m in love!
I recommend MRM decals for the rega stickers. The ones that come from icb (the typical US importer of regas) will peel off the first couple washes
White Raygas are a definite 90s vibe 😮💨🤌🏻
Regas

I’m so happy your finally are building an EVO!
Although you never made it on the NSX like i've suggested, i'm glad you made it on the EVO. White Regas on yellow is fire!
I absolutely love the Evo 7-8, this ones nice too for sure! I would have loved to see some 90-00s Volks or Works. Never really seen TJ go with anything hardcore JDM aside from the TE.
I was picturing these wheels on this car since you revealed the car. So good.
This might be one of my favorite builds. The car is gonna look soooooo spicy, can’t wait to see the rest of the parts you’ve got!
The time attack body kits for these too look insane!
Thank you for not making this a rally build, time attack builds on evo v’s are insane, hoping this turns out similarly 🤔
I cannot wait to see how this build ends up! GOOD PICK UP TJ! OOH THE REGAS are going to be hard! Hopefully Adam shared specs, because his is DIALED!
Also appreciated the beauty before and after shots... Always a missed opportunity for video creators/builders. Killer!
PS, got that Sabrina Grey Matters T-Shirt. LOVE IT!
No shot Teej just said "Without further ado" instead of farther! The Nana ducts really changed him.
You guys are killin' it on this build. One of the best yet!
Already one of my favourite cars on the channel, regas are the best wheel ever!!
favorite build yet and I've been watching since day one, I got a evo 9 this car is so beautiful
Those Desmond’s hit hard I like them on r32 gtr’s as well
On spoon hondas too
I don't know me personally love this car all around, such a GOOD car! 👌
This has to be one of my favorite tj hunt builds. The wheels are just 👌
If you do another Porsche build, make it a safari build! No more angling up driveways lol
Smoked lights would set the build off🔥
I hope he does he a race alignment with him in the drivers seat. I haven’t seen them do that yet on the channel but for a grip car it makes such a difference. They have to adjust the coilovers to start with so it sounds like when he says a full alignment maybe they’ll show it being done.
Always loved these evos the regas w suspension was definitely a nice touch🔥🔥
I beleive this, the Ferrari and Porsche are the best cars in the fleet 🔥
Get the anti roll center bump steer kit since you’re going for a grip oriented build and that’s a must have when lowering the car to keep the suspension geometry like oem
I agree with Sabrina, leave the mudflaps!!!!!!!
Perfect timing! I just got an Evo 5. Following the build series 🫶🏻
As usual I agree with Calvin 100 percent since he is the man. with the plan and understands things like streetability .driveability
Thanks for uploading ONE whole mod vid. Other youtubers wouldve made like 5 videos for every little part they get cough cough dustin. I appreciate it.
TJ you should buy a C7 Z06 between the years 2016-2018 and modify it, I have one and it’s unbelievable. Nothing but smiles per gallon.
It would look Hella sick with the red Mines signature decal on the side of the Evo
Man you killed it on this round of parts 👌 perfect upgrades with the best brands
Wheels look great! Going to be an awesome build.
Definitely needs a dry ice clean underneath but it does look good in the yellow its lovely 👌 and I lowkey agree with Sabrina the mud flaps suit the car maybe not red but it need some and so does the high ride hight it need to be higher
The regamasters are perfect for this car,great choice man the car looks beautiful
One of my favorite Evos… even of the back looks like a Mirage. 😂
Your content is refreshingly authentic, keeps me coming back for more!
Being partnered by ohlins is such a honor
In 1st place 🎉 Evo 5, good job tj . My favorite Evo's are 5' - 2 and 3 Evo's . Fan from New Zealand 🇳🇿
that model evo has been my dream car since i was a small boy. I didnt know they even existed until i watched "WHO AM I" with jackie chan.
TJ. If you want my best advise. Change the timing kit immediately. It's our only flaw at Mitsubishi. That and please do this car like the gtr. OEM, time period correct, iconic parts. Don't cheap out. And buy everything DENSO AND AEM MAKES.
TJ and Sabrina should have build competition same car with a budget and do a giveaway 🤨😊 I would love to see what Sabrina comes up with
Let's gooooo! Some Evo content finally from TJ
TJ Hunt Awesome Video I think it's awesome that you started you already started your Lancer EVO 5 build and I think it looks awesome and I think those white wheels are a great choice
People don't realize how amazing ohlins are. They're crazy expensive, so they should be great but if anyone gets a chance to try them on a car, do it.
Loved the before and after shots, please keep that!
Bro the white regas are the perfect wheels for the evo!
Omg Tj farting is outta pocket. Go check yo pants dude! 5:29
It was so wet😂
With the white wheels this is gonna remind me so much of Evan Shanks Evo 3 but I love it
Saw this car at Toprank in Japan. Looks even cleaner now.
Those regas were a great choice!
The wheel setup is insane !!🥵🔥
Please do not tight arms with rubber bushings on the lift, they have to be tight on normal working position.
FINALLY. Something other than a porsche or an exotic. I want to see more normal cars.
I’m almost positive I saw you this morning (Sunday )on hwy 52 eastbound
I was westbound and was like. “Is that an evo 5?!?!?”
“You missed nothing”!!!! Best part
Came here to say the same thing! 😂
nuts 14:43
I have evo 4 wheels on my lancer. But I really need evo5s. 16 vs 17
6.5 vs 7.5 that deeper dish is just 🤤
Loving this car! Can't wait for all that's to come!
After the Evo is fully built, you should race Adam in his Evo. That would be awesome, lol.
This one is so refreshing, just a good car and some good mods. Love to see it Tj❤
That EVO is looking awesome! Great work. God bless
I can’t wait for the evo merch!! It’s going to be fire!!!
“Wait that’s the only part that I think is cool” lmao bro she’s so funny
the best choice of wheel for the evo.
YESSSSS only love when you do series like these man. Thanks for all the hard work
Saw you guys on Saturday. It was cool finally seeing you guys in person instead of over TH-cam Selena is way better in person with the valvoline livery. But for some reason I thought you guys would be a lot taller 😂and I’m a small dude 😂
Calvin’s “you missed nothing” 😂
So proud to be Swedish when I look at Öhlins masterpiece!
Finally a great choice on the wheels
Have you ever been in a Mitsubishi? Interiors absolute crap. Everything feels cheap Also the designs and they drive absolute bad. But that is just my opinion..
I suggest relocating the ayc from the wheelwell to the trunk to prevent corrosion.
My favorite car. Few upgrades, but keep its rally roots. I’d definitely trade my rhd prelude if one was available to me close.
The white rims are perfect for that color.
I'm more excited for this build then the Porsche one TBH
I kind of wanted to see the PDK trans in the Porsche
Can we get a like for how beautiful Sabrina is lucky man TJ she's a keeper her beauty is just a bonus her personality is everything ❤
