Just a pro tip, you can generally polish out the cluster lenses just as you would paintwork unless they have heavy scratches in them. Can be a good idea to keep the old gear boot for the plastic parts because if in future new boots become unobtainium you can get an upholsterer just to remake the leather part with the best plastic bits salvaged from both. The OEM boot is probably vinyl instead of real leather which is why they fall apart in short order.
If I owned that Evo, it would be used for a monthly hill run and track day every now and then. Other than that it would sit in the garage and grow in value haha
I finally found someone doing good Evo content, cant wait to see what else you do to that beauty. Just watching you change out OEM parts is great content to me lol. .
I'm a fan of doing whatever you like to your car because at the end of the day its your car and what makes you happy. I'm not going to be one of those people who are saying keep it fairly original for value when it comes time to part with it, but I love the look of the Evo in its current state. I'm sure whatever you do will be tasteful though, so I have no worries there. Love the vids, keep em coming.
Love the content. I myself am trying to get an evo 5 once it becomes legal next year. I live in the U.S. :(. Can’t wait to see what things you do to this beauty of a machine!!! Keep it up!!!!
I bought parts for Nissan, Mitsubishi and Toyota all from Amayama, great place to get OEM parts compared to other place, only difference is now only premium shipping available.
I always said the Evo so much better to see you do things to. Now 1st a full Service and a full one too. 2ad timed Track day's at two or more tracks. 3th mod it but keep it looking as std as you can. 4th but to the same tracks and see the improvement
Enjoying all the content on all car's. $300 for all that is pretty good. I have a r33 and changing the gear shifter boot and plastic surround was over $350 🙄 Would love to see it on dyno as is then with a modern ecu haltech or something to see if you get a bit more out of it.
I'd probs get it back to stock standard, like from factory, including maintanence and then just do a couple of track days and the occasional drive on windy roads
I was watching one of tommyfyeahs vids and josh the mechanic who restores all his GTR's said if you put those old washer bottles in steaming hot water with soap and clean it (IIRC) they come out looking brand new again.
I'd be curious to know if all your window seals need replacing, all the bolts and clips underneath the side skirt and overfender and all the bolts behind your front and rear bars. Pulling that stuff off and replacing/cleaning it up may not make much of a visible difference but far out it feels good. Also, how many kms and what power and mods does your car have?
Just a modern ballbearing turbo upgrade garret or precision standard size. Just the efficiency alone will make it a better car. The original turbos get very tired journal bearing
I'd like to see a quality management system and tune, I know it's money but you wouldn't really want to change much else other than maybe a a/m turbo 🤷♂️
GENUINE cam belt /water pump , + tensioner etc done by some one that know what there doing, .. ... and some thing like a garret GTX2867R , and fuel pump / fuel pressure reg maybe injector's and a tune IS ALL THAT YOU could could ever need or want power wise / !! or any thing GTX gen TWO for the 4G63 , .. :) 350-500 HP turbo range, AS for intercooler stock is fine for mid power and all i would do exhaust wise is a HKS bolt on , holla out if you would like a hand exhaust wise or any Japanese bolt on parts wise
Tbh I'd just go exhaust, intercooler, tune (maybe a haltech) maybe even a modern more efficient turbo and that'd be it ,evos need f all to be fun quick cars 👌 Looking at upgrading my pos challenger for possibly a fg g6e as my new daily (vns ages away still n the challenger is dying lol) Found a super nice one in that dark maroony red with cream leather interior for 11k ,sadly everything's gone up. If not possibly a ba bf fg xr6 ,unfortunately the cars I've been looking at are massive pos's like a ba xr6 today, they wanted 8k for it but it was absolutely fkd, worth maybe 1000 at most 🙄 Other problem is a lot of em are upwards of 250ks but being they're taxis they'll go a mil easy 🤣 Whatever I get I'll be following suit and tidy it up with nice new genuine parts myself, over having cars with broken shit on them ,so be updating any questionable stuff like faded headlights etc. Common with them and just make it a super clean mint daily ,looking forward to working ac after 10 yrs without 👌🤣

Like most evos now
See the thing is you dont own an Evo, you don’t understand how expensive these cars are to run.
Chris officially the plug for evo parts
Haha amayama is my plug
I finally found someone doing good Evo content, cant wait to see what else you do to that beauty. Just watching you change out OEM parts is great content to me lol. .
Welcome aboard haha
New genuine parts are the best, all the little details add up, especially for parts you see every time you drive the car
It's the little things that make the difference, nice work bro.
Thanks Mick
I could watch a montage of that sort of thing for hours!!

And it’s takes forever unfortunately
It really is the small things in life!
Keep it up brother love the channel!!
Thanks! Will do!
I always said the Evo so much better to see you do things to.
Now
1st a full Service and a full one too.
2ad timed Track day's at two or more tracks.
3th mod it but keep it looking as std as you can.
4th but to the same tracks and see the improvement
Great video! These 4 holes on armrest panel and one on carpet look like from Apexi ECV (Exhaust Control Valve).
Was from eyelet for harness, plate was still attached underneath the car
the screws with the covers are nice bit of kit for the interior,
maybe time for a new andbrake cover?
Mint car and I love some NOS parts to mate. 👍🏻
Thanks Al
Hey bro I got an evo 5 and managed to get the accellerator pedal cover brand new from eBay just as easy to replace as the break and clutch pads
Enjoying all the content on all car's. $300 for all that is pretty good. I have a r33 and changing the gear shifter boot and plastic surround was over $350 🙄 Would love to see it on dyno as is then with a modern ecu haltech or something to see if you get a bit more out of it.
Yeh definitely needs to hit the dyno for a check up
Great content bro. How goods the guava cruiser! Love the bit by bit part by part resto builds. Awesomeness. Cheers bud
10:20 is what I do to myself when I see a new vid out mate 😂
I'd probs get it back to stock standard, like from factory, including maintanence and then just do a couple of track days and the occasional drive on windy roads
Yay this is so amazing happy Wednesday
I was watching one of tommyfyeahs vids and josh the mechanic who restores all his GTR's said if you put those old washer bottles in steaming hot water with soap and clean it (IIRC) they come out looking brand new again.
That will last a few weeks then go back to yellow again

Yeh favourite colour in the CP’s for sure
Ocd fix..... satisfied......🤤🤤🤤🤤
Awesome content mate 👌👌
Shes a clean example nice car brah
Yo Chris love the vids u reckon u could do these in detail videos with your ceffy?
I don’t do anything to that car to be able to do a vid on it
I'd like to see a quality management system and tune, I know it's money but you wouldn't really want to change much else other than maybe a a/m turbo 🤷♂️
Hey man, what car covers do you use? Do they have any negative effects on paint if the car isn't spotless?
I really would love to own a EVO 6 in my lifetime :c
Buy before they’re unobtainable
Sick crocs
LS conversion is what I wanna see 😂
Spew 🤮

could you run it up on the dyno, see if your mate could see how healthy it is ?
yes you could
Keep the evo as is mods wise, couple track days. How about some cefi content 😎
100% track days so much fun would be a good video to
Yeh I’m pretty keen
Subbed. Cool colour for a beautiful Evo. Do you share web links for purchases so we find them as well? Cheers
Amayama.com
Great video 👍
Thanks 👍
The alarm light does sets my ocd off lol.
alarm light?
16.54 right hand corner.
I don't think my tme has what looks to be a light.
Could put a stock head unit in and run Bluetooth, works well.
Lumpy cams and a Haltech!
Love the vids keep up the great work
Glad you like them!
Could you please provide links to all the parts you bought? Would help us fellow Evo 6 owners out a lot
Amayama
Tbh I'd just go exhaust, intercooler, tune (maybe a haltech) maybe even a modern more efficient turbo and that'd be it ,evos need f all to be fun quick cars 👌
Looking at upgrading my pos challenger for possibly a fg g6e as my new daily (vns ages away still n the challenger is dying lol)
Found a super nice one in that dark maroony red with cream leather interior for 11k ,sadly everything's gone up. If not possibly a ba bf fg xr6 ,unfortunately the cars I've been looking at are massive pos's like a ba xr6 today, they wanted 8k for it but it was absolutely fkd, worth maybe 1000 at most 🙄
Other problem is a lot of em are upwards of 250ks but being they're taxis they'll go a mil easy 🤣
Whatever I get I'll be following suit and tidy it up with nice new genuine parts myself, over having cars with broken shit on them ,so be updating any questionable stuff like faded headlights etc. Common with them and just make it a super clean mint daily ,looking forward to working ac after 10 yrs without 👌🤣
Love the content homie keep it up!!
Thanks! Will do!
