Ricky and Quin's vibes are absolutely unmatched. The fact that they so professional and yet keep clowning around. I absolutely love it!
Never go mega corporate Throtl
To late.
Unfortunately this already happened.
is this a Donut roast?
I wonder why they have such low views when their content has always been top notch. Especially the 300ZX and Ferrari series, the videos average like 150k a video which is crazy
Too late. They got big sponsors which allow them to do bigger builds with bigger budgets. That's great until it isn't. Now they are at the mercy and whims of their sponsors. They won't bite the hand that feeds them. Always a dilemma when you grow big and accept the money. You either sell out or stray true to your roots.. rarely can one do both, successfully.
Grabbed my 06 EVO IX brand new at the dealership with 3 miles on the dash. Fast forward to now (2024) sitting at 68k non molested with the exception of a nice tune and full exhaust o2 back. I have teens kids now, and it’s funny to me how they and there friends think it’s super cool how I have a car from the fast and furious movies lol. Stay safe homies, and fellow EVO owners 🙏🏼
EEVVVOOOO!!! I love that you guys listened to the fan base and decided to keep this clean. Please don't ever go corporate. After this let's move onto a Saab, I will not give up on this lol
“The clear coat is gone for lunch” had me dead 😂
Ricky is too funny 😂
great choice for OEM plus. This thing is a beauty. Gonna look amazing in my driveway next to my Evo X when i win ;) Can't wait for more Evo content.
So watch Devin’s videos he literally just finished one that’s OEM plus
I can't wait to see those calipers cleaned up and the paint fixed
Coming in an upcoming episode!
Sti did in fact have the intercooler spray button 😂
On the s209
@@Bustin-Cider69nah my 06 sti has it
All STI models have it lol
Factory installed on my 2005 STI.
My 1998 STi has factory water spray.
paint correct and polish, carbon pieces, nice exhaust tone, upgraded suspension, intake noises, an up to date tune with a nice set of wheels and this will be a perfect oem+ evo.
That's the plan! Except a brand new paint job!
@@throtl can't wait
Ricky you lie! My 04 STi had a factory intercooler sprayer! Boom!
Quinn with that kick move to lift the tire was clean af
Ricky and quin always make for a great video haha. Very entertaining stuff! Torqued to spec!!
Pop the hood. So many memories. This was my dream car for so many years. I wanted one in 2003 the year i graduated. But couldnt afford it. Still cant today. They are timeless cars in my opinion.
OMG my favorite car ever. Wanted one every since they came out and import tubers were a thing. Please make this beauty a beast.
6:01 Hey, it's super helpful to take off the oil fill cap before draining the oil. Also leave the filter off when draining the pan, it allows for a better, more complete removal! Surprised you didn't honestly. Just my HO, i'm no master tech, but have worked for dealerships and oil companies. Cheers!!
One of my all time favourite cars , nice choice guys 👍🏻👍🏻🇬🇧
3:01 I like this new approach for this channel! You should do at least 4 a year of these. The next one should be Ricky's AE86 please!!!
I love this show. I wish I had a car to fix up or even just have one lol. You guys do such good work, and you guys put top notch parts in them. Thank you throtl for giving me a dream to think about whenever I can get a car.
Soo excited for this build, really glad you kept the OEM wheels! Always love Ricky and Quinn's bickering haha, they are like an old married couple. Always crack me up!
ahh man, the cameo Will callout at the end! Need that guy back for some guest appearances!
So cool you are going for OEM+. Those stock wheels look amazing. ❤
14:30 the way Quin stood up that tire, full on grease monkey move.
OEM+ build. I'm sure cool parts and improvements have come along since this car has been out. 💪🏆
Quinn and Ricky tag teams never fails 😂😂 19:48
The outtakes are great 😂
Just got a set of these Evo 8 wheels on MP, really excited to refinish them!
Yooooo now TJ and THROTL have matching evos😍💛
Should we race them?
@@throtl you shoulddd
Great video! Can’t wait to see the OEM plus add on bits !
"See? anyone can do Quinns job" technically yes, but no one does it like Quinn's, mad love and respect for ma dude quinn🤌
Great start on this cool project!!!
Finally! Been waiting for this EVO content 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
love the plan to go OEM+
Definitely the most excited I've been about a giveaway car in a long time!
I have been waiting for this build ALL MY LIFE YOU HEAR?
🙌🙌 I’m praying
Love the EVO!!
Love the yellow. All front fenders are alloy on evo 7,8,9. Its a good idea to overfill your transfer and rear diff gear oils. I made a video about this... filling thru the drain plug! because its easy to accidentally under fill especially the transfer case
One of my favorite cars of all time. I love the yellow too. Would love to win this one!
I have always wanted one of these, since i first seen them at a dealership. Never been able to afford one. It's a long shot, but i might have to buy a shirt, and just pray. Hope you keep it yellow with red brakes.
My favorite type of build. Not doing too much. That's what I'm hoping for the Jetta mk4 I'm currently driving
i’m buying so much merch!! an evo is my dream car!
Top 5 of all time on my list
Bought my 1st Evo in 2003 was the 2nd person to register one in California. The 1st was Mitsubishi and it was a press car that was blue, my Evo 8 was white. Good Times, traded it for an Evo 9 MR in 2006 😎👍
OEM are just refreshing and look good
Ricky is the best part of this channel.
Definitely one of my dream cars
Throtl & Tj hunts EVO'S let's go!!!...🤩🤩🤩
Such a nice evo!! 🥹
OEM+ Thank goodness 🙏🏼
Subaru's did actually have that intercooler spray option as well on the STi.
so excited for this build
I loved this video ngl GREAT JOB
My favorite Dream Car 🙈👉🏽👈🏽
I will getting soon 💪🏽
I had an 04 Evo 8 in Silver. I definitely miss it.
draining out quality oem gear oil and putting in cheap wrong oil is CRAAAZZZY work
The transfer case isn’t always full when it comes out the fill hole. It’s best to pump slow, cap it and wait a bit then Check again. Sometimes it needs to be driven slowly around the block and topped off. Please check out EvolutionM forum for threads on what I’m commenting about . Also fluids that I’ve found that work the best in my 03 is 2x MT-90 and 1 MTL by redline for the trans, Heavy shockproof for the T case and 75w90 for the rear diff or 80w140.
Evo rally build boys!
23:19 Carburetor cleaner spray ftw!
, nice job 👍🏻
I prefer them in white, first one I saw was in 1997, a white Evo IV in a yard of hundreds of imports.
I love the bloopers
sick another evo. Def gonna buy somthing for a chance
Oem plus. I'm looking forward to it
OEM+ babbyyyy lets go 🔥
Always liked EVO’s. Almost bought a X in 2015 but the dealership was playing games.
Oem+ with carbon bits is the way to go! 500whp now you cooking
Love the Quinn and Ricky vibe. Need me a work wife like that
Make sure tcase fluids are properly filled. I think people fill through the drain hole so that it takes the full quart. Don't want run it with low fluid and develop a death whine.
I'm from South Africa sending love to the crew 🙂Hello but here we say EXE or OLA
18x10 Volks, coilovers, JDM rear bumper, FBO engine upgrades, done.
Ricky, all of them have aluminum hood, and front fenders including that car. MR and SE got aluminum roof.
Man I hope keep goin with the modern f&f cars like a modern Dom rx7 or Brian's skyline
Happy birthday luqi
Oreilly's oil, k&n filter and master pro tranny fluid? What happened to oem build?
My dream car ❤
let me have those wheels! 😅 can pick up.
jk didn't get far enough yet to see it's a resto, super stoked this nice car is getting that treatment.
I need this big bird in my life.
OMG... My dream car...
I wish i could win this car 🥺. Thank you for restoring it and keeping it oem.
Can't wait to have it in my driveway 😅
The evo 9 has mivec (mitsu’s vvt) and a bigger turbo. because of the mivec they use different size spark plugs and some other minor changes
pretty sure the strut brace is stock, if I remember from my '06. OEM+ is the way, including all the better EVO IX stuff (turbo, etc). Maybe BBS SE wheels restored. JDM bumper.
Dude this car is beautiful idk what I’d do if I got this thing. ❤
Can you please build a 1980s Nissan Datsun 720 pickup?? 🛻 💨💨 much love and respect for what y’all do!
TJ Hunt vs Throtl Evo build-of :) Let's go
Ricky the STI also has water spray
Tj buys an evo and throtl too? NICE, my fav car yt channels buy the same car. Loving it!
EDIT: meant the same car brand not the same car 😂❤❤
STi DOES HAVE INTERCOOLER SPRAYER, same year as the Evo, it came with the little tank and the I/C Sprayer button.
Ricky!! Subarus did have intercooler sprays, but does a evo have a DCCD gearbox ??? Great video nice to see a bone stock evo.
Got to love Quin so I hate to be such a nitpicky nerd but dielectric literally means non-conducting. So dielectric grease is just to help protect electrical contacts. Not directly help them conduct better.
Can’t wait to win
Team Throtl, can yall do a full rebuild on my 99 silverado and make it a beast of a truck, you know mo powa
Sorry Ricky but 04-07 STI’s had an Intercooler sprayer 😂😂, that EVO is 🔥🔥🔥 Tho
I love car but come on Rickey, please look up the 2004 and 2005 model STI. They came with the inner cooler sprayer. I love mine
Vamos!
Evo ❤❤❤❤❤
Change the rear bumper for the japanese version. For the front use only the front lip.
You should build it with the name “Cream Puff” in mind. Maybe a livery to reflect it?
We just E. Honda slap for that intro. 😂
Evos transfer case fluid is different to the gearbox one otherwise it’ll shit it’s self you need to put super thick fluid in the transfer
You fallas are the best. Wish we have something like what you guys do here in Australia....God bless.
Sleeper build..??
