I’ve given up on a lot of automotive RUclips because it’s just gets more and more out of hand. I love how dut put it when he was talking about the lost art of tinkering, I’m very much a tinkerer so that’s what I love to see. Most people can’t afford rent let alone all these insane(but cool) car builds.
I wish... Old JDM cars are unobtainium now with import scammers, price hikes, and just their age making them brittle and in need of constant repair/tinkering (especially the electronics). Parts are becoming more rare and expensive too. I think I'll just stick to the newer modern stuff.
My Evo 5 felt extra quick at first, then I started hitting boost cut and realized the actuator had seized up, common on these. Simple mods, but a smaller wheel with an extended boss and a lower seat rail was a huge improvement for me.
Very true. Getting rid of the huge steering wheel and a lower position seat will make it feel more like an actual sports car rather than just some quick sedan.
Dut love how the Touge Dandelion Yellow Evo V wing doubles as a table 😅 i think 450hp , transmission , suspension , brakes , wheels upgrades perfect Touge car 👍
Dude, this series is Top content. At 1st I was like man that Evo is crap compared to your other builds but Im now digging it. Exhaust sounds just right actually and that Top Rank Shizuoka garage is killer. I've driver those mountain roads in Hakone and Shizuoka and thats what makes Japan the best for sports cars. Man, this trip is 🔥..so jealous. Props to your teamup with Masa and Top Rank.
Super Autobacs is quite a neat place and I would suggest any car lover visiting Japan to take a stroll through for the experience. I went there for the first time last weekend and had a great time wandering the aisles for over an hour. I was looking for some paint repair products which they had plenty. I then ordered Recaro seats for my R33 GT-R while I was there as they have a parts counter. It was nice to be able to sit in the seats to try them before buying. If you sit there in the parking lot for a while a lot of cool stuff rolls through. They also sell Rays wheels like was mentioned in the video if you are a Rays wheel enjoyer. I still need to sort out my car before I hit the Hakone Togue so the last video makes me jealous.
Seeing all the 90's nostalgia lately makes me love the thought that i got my CD5 Accord with a JDM H swap and some OG TE's. Man this is sick and so inspiring.
First of all I'd like to say that I really appreciate the B-roll footage. Like the three of you leaving the Air BnB in the morning! Great work Dustin. I love the approach you're taking for modding the Evo! Can't wait to see how she'll turn out. Also those fans at the service center were so awesome! Finally, those touge's man! I'd love to take my Mini there!
Having had an Evo VIII for years (no longer unfortunately), seeing an Evo V makes me feel not only jealous but also makes me miss the VIII I used to have and makes me want to try and find another one.
Same Same. My Evo 9 wagon came from Japan with those weird Ennepetal Billies too. I swapped them out for Ohlins as the spring rate was crazy. If you want yours to handle seriously you need to install a new RS rear diff and a fancy aftermarket LSD front diff too.
I have a “stock” Evo 8 MR that I bought when I was in Japan. When I had it on the Dyno the tuner also said it seemed spicy for a stock car making 280whp.
Can't quite tell in the video as it's pixelated, but if the boost gauge is anything to go on and assuming that's 1.8 bar, if it's going higher than about 1.3 bar then it has at least got some ECU tuning. Rebuilt turbo is a possibility but probably unlikely as the 16g TDO5 is quite a capable unit. Stock PSI is peak of around 18/19psi (1.3 bar) tapering down to about 16 (1.1 bar), so any higher than that isn't stock - and iirc you can do up to about 25 psi (1.75 bar) comfortably. The EVO 5 was a frighteningly quick car for its time, I really miss mine, stock that thing would take on even a lot of modern sports cars at the lights. Enjoy yours Dut and enjoy taking it through all the Toge, those cars were meant for windy twisty roads. PS. Get the AYC pump checked. Those things are notorious for dying, especially if the car has sat for a while.
Dustin always making us peasants so jealous. My desire to visit Japan has grown so much since I started watching your channel. I have always wanted to visit but now it's just killing me so much that I can't go anytime real soon. Hopefully next year.
Loving the EVO content!! I have a 2015 Lancer. I wanted an Evo but hated that it only had 5 gears. Wish it was a 6 speed!! I love my Lancer and I wish they didn't discontinue it. Now I am regretting not getting Evo when I had the chance. Maybe one day I'll be able to get one.
I'm so pumped! I have all new rear bushings and hardware to do on mine! I need to save up for the front and then do it all at once, but I am getting impatient.
Man watching the video on the big screen! Dustin you continue to show the great footage of Japan and thank you for it man! You’re living out a dream that I also have! Maybe 1 day I’ll be ripping the Togue with you! 💯🔥🙌
Awesome mods to the EVO. Nice color on the FL5, GRMN Yaris just looks dope! It's just so weird that yushi brought a car that every JDM car guy hates, an Abarth and an EV! Geesh. Anyway, I love ur new Merch! Can't wait for your new exhaust! I wonder what you'll get. Your Japan videos are just legendary!
The evo needs those Ohlin's coilovers. That is what they use for rally cars. I think RalliArt and cosworth uses those. My uncle had those on his eagle talon/mitsubishi eclipse rally car that he had coswort UK and team bushar build for him. He used it in scca pro rally, and then he shipped it to the Philippines when he moved to the Philippines. He is a big mitsubishi fanatic. I think all of his ex rally cars were mitsubishi cars.
I love seeing this evo over the newer cars, so much more relatable. Kinda inspires more realistic goals.
🫶🏼🫶🏼
@@dustiinw 300zx 😂please
I said the same thing even tho the Evo is expensive but still more relatable to average person

Maybe get the undercarriage dry ice blasted and rust seal coated? Especially if it's gonna be sitting a lot of the year in Japan.
masa at the end had me 😂😂😂 he wont live that down.
Would've been hilarious if dustin turned on masas selfie cam and started recording until he woke up
Can you do a full build breakdown of all your cars like a 1 hour special
Masa’s car looks like a bulldog rolling. I like it
The GRMN is so bad ass
man, the evo 5 dandelion yellow is really the best yellow ever
It’s. So. Good.
100% - I have one and love it to death. This thing needs an Evo V front end tho!
Legend says that Masa woke up in the morning still holding his phone
He absolutely did
Awesome video as always Dustin. The EVO is so sick can’t wait to see what other mods you’re going to do to it.
Ive been watching you for years but just recently I (16) bought my first car and it feels on another level being apart of this journey! Thanks Dut!
What’s the first car?
My Evo 5 felt extra quick at first, then I started hitting boost cut and realized the actuator had seized up, common on these. Simple mods, but a smaller wheel with an extended boss and a lower seat rail was a huge improvement for me.
Very true. Getting rid of the huge steering wheel and a lower position seat will make it feel more like an actual sports car rather than just some quick sedan.
Dut's really living the dream, living proof hard work pays off and dreams do come true
Going for that Initial D. Focusing on quality over quantity and getting the most out of it it’s already there. I’m excited!
hell yes!
Dut love how the Touge Dandelion Yellow Evo V wing doubles as a table 😅 i think 450hp , transmission , suspension , brakes , wheels upgrades perfect Touge car 👍
Masa is strong holding the phone when sleep 😃
I am curious to see all of Yushi's car collection!😄
dustin and albo 😭😭😭
masa definitely shows his true self when you all are together 🤭
I'm suprised Masa is still holding his phone while he sleeps. If it was me it would have hit me in the face. Lol 31:38

Yeah!!Now we've got the full squad.
I'm stoked to see more mods that will be done to the Evo. That car is so sick.
Literally couldn’t wait for this video, I can’t wait for the Evo V to be a touge monster
JUST WAIT! it's sick
@@dustiinwso sick, I loved the vid as always 👌🏻
This is why I live ya. Realistic goals with even such a big channel

Japan vlogs are the best! And with the whole squad 🙏❤️
Love the Evo. This is going to be a great build. Can't wait to see the next one.

You have inspired me to one day buy a car to build in Japan the videos you make are so good at showing the culture and lifestyle over there❤
The EVO looks sick!
So good seeing Albo again as well ❤
Dawg like i literally love it more when you are in Japan than Home ground❤😂
I love this video so much! The touge run was great
I love that you choice the evo 5🤟🏻 huge fan from sweden 😁
EVO 5 is going to be a BEAST!
I Have So Much Fun watching These Japan Videos
I can never get enough of the Japan vlogs loving it 🔥
Dustin is living every guys dream, keep smashing it my guy
Bougie Masa! 😛 working out is paying off bro 💪🏼 killing it Dut as per usual 🫡
good choice on the ohlins. they are the best option for these cars for sure :)
Been waiting for this one!
Change the bumper back to its original. Evo-V bumper looks way retro and beautiful.
Masa just disconnected at the end XD
I just can't XD
The color and just like the 90s looking vibe it has. It’s such a beauty, I will own one someday.
I have a “stock” Evo 8 MR that I bought when I was in Japan. When I had it on the Dyno the tuner also said it seemed spicy for a stock car making 280whp.
Can’t believe how sick the Evo looks with such a slight drop 🤩!

You should run Endless breaks on the Evo. You always get super excited when you see them on other cars!
I’m not super excited about the price 😂
@@dustiinwwelllll since you can’t spend money on the engine, now might be the best time 😉 😂
Another Japan trip !! Awesome
Dustin always making us peasants so jealous. My desire to visit Japan has grown so much since I started watching your channel. I have always wanted to visit but now it's just killing me so much that I can't go anytime real soon. Hopefully next year.
Man I need to get to Japan! Just to see the cars alone! This might be one of my favorite builds of yours!
Japan vlogs never get old!
Loving the EVO content!! I have a 2015 Lancer. I wanted an Evo but hated that it only had 5 gears. Wish it was a 6 speed!! I love my Lancer and I wish they didn't discontinue it. Now I am regretting not getting Evo when I had the chance. Maybe one day I'll be able to get one.
What a blessing to have sophisticated Jdm friends 😭
Loved the soundtrack at 20:32 👌
Hakone is awesome! Was just there a few weeks ago and the touge was so much fun. Excited for the evo content. Definitely my favorite gen
Masa zoomin through the touge 👌 so awesome
I'm so pumped! I have all new rear bushings and hardware to do on mine! I need to save up for the front and then do it all at once, but I am getting impatient.
omg that late night run was so beautiful!
Man watching the video on the big screen! Dustin you continue to show the great footage of Japan and thank you for it man! You’re living out a dream that I also have! Maybe 1 day I’ll be ripping the Togue with you! 💯🔥🙌

Just a straight up awesome day…. Makin memories that will last a lifetime, doesn’t get any better than that 😊
Look at a Koyorad upgrade for the Radiator, I just did it on my 6 and it’s a night and day improvement
Probably has a evo 8 or 9 turbo. Those are common upgrades that can be picked up at up-garage
@13:28 Yoo! I like the mismatch laces Dut! 🤙🤙
Car looks good man! Dope setup 👌
Great coilovers for the car!! Excellent choice. :)
Came from the Hagerty video about Larry’s r34 build. Sick car. Love old evos
Found this channel because RUclips know i love this car 😂🔥
Yushi yoshi! Is fast AF! He is just pulling on yall!
I've been waiting for thissssss
FINALLY A 30+ MINUTE VIDEO!! LFG!!! Love it! Commenting before I watch while I wait for my pizza to cook 🤣🤣🤣🤣.

Keep the evo content bro🙏🏻
❤❤❤ loving japan vlogs with your evo. Wish I can get one one days.
living the dream ! love it !
Initial “D SPEC R” the saga continues!
Ive been waiting for this vid🥜
4 dudes are enjoying life 💯💯💯
Massaaaaaa 😂😂😂 what a absolute legend, love the evo dustin 💛
My guy Yoshi always stoked to see him and Masa👍👀
Another Best Content ever 👌
Seeing the new Japan Evo, has me looking at Evos and Top Rank in the US just added an Evo VI to their inventory.
The foams on those headphones are cheap and easy to replace. Mine did the same thing. The Amazon memory foam ones are super comfortable
With an aggressive compound and buff the paint will come back and it will look like new.
Love me the Evo 5
Finally am excited to see what a master piece u make plus in my case u a jdm legend
Masa knocking out while on the phone only ment he had one heck of a night 😂 those are the best sleeps
Epic episode. Evo is looking great and can't wait for more upgrades. Masa looks like a damn burrito sleeping, lol. 👍👍👍👍
dustin’s “waking up” intros are the only ones I tolerate from a grown man 🤣
I think Masa is actually a Robot. That’s when the battery is gone.
Sato-san just looks like an OG Jdm legend
Watching the camber plate go in the wrong way at 9:26 had me concerned for a second 😂
Let's go. Send the evo to the moon In mods
TO THE MOON!
Can't wait for the '24 DW meet!
Honestly best guess is yeah change of the turbine and tune. Billet wheel turbo rebuild and tune.
Already know I’m adding that hoodie to the collection
Masa passed out playing reels made me lol😂 The new suspension makes the car sit to much better. It’ll settle a bit.
I miss my rallye red 2011 fa5 so much. Those navarre beach and Pensacola meets back in the day were so fun
