    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 🙏🏼

      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.

    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!!

    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

  • @michaelwong7554
    @michaelwong7554 3 месяца назад

    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.

    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.
