This video is so full of pure love and passion to the car, that you can clearly see and feel from the effort and patience put into restoring the car.

[@ChrisGoorbarry]

Thank you!!

[@Dioption]

@@ChrisGoorbarry im enjoyed.

[@RobertBrolo]

@@ChrisGoorbarry Bruh I like your Sweet ride/Fast and Furious

[@UnGrooveful]

I agree with that.

[@bladefps7744]

This is art you didn't miss a single thing. Really showed that gem the appreciation it deserves.🤧

[@ChrisGoorbarry]

Thank you!! 🙏🏼

[@RobertBrolo]

@@ChrisGoorbarry your Sweet ride is looking real Hot on your KZbin videos have a 1:24 Subaru WRX

[@ACEcrafter77]

In a world where most people build cars like this to look like race cars but never even go on track, seeing a simple and clean build like this never fails to astonish.

[@filiprisnita8273]

Bro, the level of PASSION you put into this car make me tear. Shout out to you and every passionate carhead out there. You, gentlemans, make moving art.

[@tunglam8210]

Mitsubishi made a foolish mistake discontinuing the Lancer. I hope they wont regret it if they should release a new Lancer in the future.

[@scavenger_0898]

its not that thwy want to discontinue it for good but economy is changing, most people nowadays doesn't want to get sport sedan but a family Suv that is why maeketting a sport sedan that doesn't on demand is too pricey for them and will blow as not profitable...in pur world right now, money talka not passion..

[@johnconnor2402]

This is modern day art. I love car restoration videos. You've clearly put so much work into this and it really shows. The car is absolutely mint.

[@Drquimbaymatumbo]

You call this car restoration..... 😂😂😂

[@grimz928]

Every once in a great while you stumble across a rare video. This is one of them! This is what car culture about. 👏👏

[@miltiadiskyvernitis]

This video took me back to my childhood. Your love for the car is loud. Love this.

[@adianetclemente4491]

All the blood, sweat and tears… So much dedication put into this build! I’m so proud of you and the outcome, hard work does pay off!! ❤❤

[@ChrisGoorbarry]

Thank you! I appreciate you always ❤️❤️

[@haggencharman]

don't forget about the lower back pain lol

[@nomsi4263]

Well, dude, you have got my approval and a sub. Plus top marks from a person with OCD haha.

[@sunsetgarage755]

Build????? This is a modern car that’s just had a clean and a detail with a paint correction & a few new parts thrown in for good measure. Nicely done but calling it a “build” is just hilarious.

[@Brett4517]

It's refreshing to see someone restore a car rather than throwing mods on top of a bad foundation. Great work!

[@ChrisGoorbarry]

🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@tylercouture216]

all cars born into enthusiasm deserve this

[@tougestylegarage]

Attention to detail is an understatement.. This isn’t something you see often in todays world. Hands down the cleanest evo probably on the planet.

[@muneebahmad611]

This was so peaceful to watch. That Evo is a work of art. Amazing job restoring it.

[@hagridsbeardguy1399]

Can't fathom how much this restoration cost, but damn your passion and attention to detail is brilliant to watch. Great work!

[@3n3ly7m9]

Like I always say to people, you put more time than money into a car. I have about 640hours into one of my Audis. Thats just redoing the whole engine and trans and suspension brakes, subframes, etc. Its all been put back to factory, and everything painted, new hardware OEM++++

[@Mrennnn]

glad to see ppl out here really treating this car with love and care as it should be it’s my dream to own a evo 9 one day

[@ibrahimjubayer8373]

Lancer evo series is one of the best Japanese materpiece JDM icon indeed what a video it was appreciated every second of it the passion for the car is mesmerising

[@gcm747]

I’d like to think that at least one of the people who helped build this car all those years ago sees this and feels content that it’s getting this degree of love shown to it.

[@ifazer8akathedoctor275]

[@Killerhardtopkiller]

I'm a car guy and a video guy. I can appreciate the work that went into both projects.

[@massiveimprovement]

You have better detailing technique than most detailing youtubers. It's clear that you know what you are doing. Love the refinements to an amazing car. Just amazing.

[@NorthOz]

Incredible. I owned a 2006 lancer and put my heart and soul into that vehicle. My only regret was selling it. This video brought back so many memories of the endless hours working on it. You are very talented and I will check out your other videos 👍 Much love from Australia

[@theplayerofssb]

Is it weird to say that this video has made me tear up? i got so emotional watching how this car goes from used and dirty to factory new and shiny. its truly a from of art. this car is also one of my favourite cars out there

[@musckmx8195]

This car deserves you as a owner! 🔥

[@jrsghosts]

This is the type of love and care people should have for these type of cars, mad love and respect for you brotha huge fan !

[@roddydykes7053]

Most Evo owners are pretty fanatical

[@T1Earn]

i have adhd and this was addicting to watch. Thank you for this.

[@ChrisGoorbarry]

[@mohammadmursalin6817]

I feel really sad and nostalgic right now. I am not a car guy and all I have ever been able to afford have been old toyotas of the regular kind. But this video reminded me of the time I was a school kid. Just in grade 10 and NFS Underground 2 had come out. The rich kids used to come to school in their modded honda civics, Mazda RX8's, Lexus Altezzas, Mitsubishi Lancers and Eclipses, Toyota Celicas etc and had the latest and the greatest flip phones. They used to get all the love and praise from the other regular kids and got to be part of a car club. All I could ever do was "experience" one of these legendary vehicles on a computer screen and listen to the car talk from the shadows. Even today, part of me wishes I could go back in time and be one of those cool kids with the cool cars. So many years have passed, the cool kids now run or are part of their dad's of family's businesses, companies, corporations etc. All I ever was back then and still am now is a normie. I still watch their success from the shadows. All my hard work, studying hard and going to college only ever got me a normal job. Some people are just built and born different, better, luckier; just like some machines are better and more legendary than others.

[@jortho89]

As someone that loves Evo's, detailing, and extreme attention to detail, you just made my day.

[@egyptiancotton9489]

This video is amazing. I love the camera work and the music! You can clearly see that this is a passion for you just from all the attention to detail. It’s all about the little things!

[@ChrisGoorbarry]

Thank you so much!

[@Kawaski3000]

Amazing, the amount of work you put in is just insane. I have a short attention span when it comes to watching videos but damn watching this video feels like it's too short. Would love to watch more of these type of content!

[@marklinley815]

Such a clean video and detail from one detailer to another. Your attention to detail is effortless. Car looks so good.

[@billyfaizzaly]

WOW, I am impressed by your calmness and perseverance. This is the car that deserves restoration to its glory.

[@alexk.430]

Amazing job, you're the epitome of professionalism. Well done, thanks for the video.

we need more people like you full of passion this might be the best evo I might have ever seen after NFSMW blacklist xD

[@drrespect04]

The love he poured into this is incredible!!! This might be the best transformation I've ever seen. What a beauty.

[@ChrisGoorbarry]

Thank you!!!

[@andrecalvelo6425]

this car has been my first love ever since i was 7 years old seeing my uncle own this made me fall in love with the Evo, the exhaust rumble, the turbo spooling and of course the sexy red color! watching this brings back the good times!! one day ill own one of these bad boys! beautiful build!!

[@heavyq]

This video made me start tearing apart my 02 WRX to start something similar. It might take me a few years, if not longer. But watching the work and care you put into this has inspired me to give my old Bugeye new life.

[@willgeez]

This level of commitment and passion is unrivalled. This is truly inspiring. A few months ago I also got a jdm evo 8 from Japan to Australia and have just had it fully resprayed. These cars are icons and deserve all the love. Thanks for sharing Chris, I can't wait to see what you have in store for this beautiful car!

[@ChrisGoorbarry]

Thank you so much!!!

[@Rippers-TV]

This video was insane. I'm sure just as much time went into filming/editing as the car itself. Amazing.

[@ChrisGoorbarry]

Bro you have no idea!! Lol a ton of time!

[@so2fast4u2]

Someone went as balls deep with the editing as the guy repairing the evo...😮 ❤❤❤

[@jyothikarnavar]

Man, speechless. The amount of joy and excitement felt whilst watching this video is heavenly...❤❤❤

[@jet_life333]

What did I just watch?! Probably one of the best videos I’ve seen in a very long time! Bringing me back to the warm feeling of wanting to build cars my own way! Seeing you do your magic is just awesome! Keep it up! It’s amazing to see this quality of a build in a time of car culture like the one we are lacking

[@rhodycars6058]

My only thing to add is using steam on a headliner. Not an evo issue specifically but the glue that adheres the headliner might lose its ability to bond after being hit with heat. You seemed to be very cautious using steam on the headliner but for anyone else looking to clean theirs be careful.

[@ChrisGoorbarry]

Very good point! Mines was perfectly fine but still something to be careful with!

[@jlomein4634]

I truly appreciate ur attention to details on these soon to be classics. enjoyed every second of it!

[@xxxxxx-ef7ni]

omg. this guy is really in love with his car.ive never seen that much detailing in my whole life. bravo

[@danielloo881]

definately need an evo 9 front bumper to perfect the build. nice work mate!

[@muirfanma]

nah, evo 8' bumper > evo 9'

[@rayjhay8624]

I always liked how much you take care and know how to maintain your evos, Its the little things like that makes a huge difference.

That's some serious loving. Well deserved awesomeness. The car itself is an icon, your work makes it a legend.

[@FernandoMojicaJ]

Tu entusiasmo y dedicación por este auto es inigualable... ❤ Quedo bellísimo ese EVO 8

[@andydhillon1977]

Absolutely amazing! The build quality is top-notch, but the editing and narration in the video is equally as high! Did the Evos in Japan have the same issues relating to the paint and extremely thin clearcoat issues Evos in the US had?

[@ChrisGoorbarry]

Thank you so much! And yes same shitty paint lmao

[@andydhillon1977]

@@ChrisGoorbarry That stinks. Does yours need a paint job in the near future? I have a 2008 Civic Mugen Si. Thar generation of Civic had similar paint and ckearcoat issues. Also, are you keeping all the parts you're replacing? I hope you are!

[@TheWhiteEvo]

The cleanest Evo around, literally! That's epic, loved watching all the hard work that went into this. Keep it up, cant wait to see more!

[@stump469]

Perfection!!! Absolutely mind bending attention to detail Sir, full credit for an amazing labour of joy. 😍🙏

That's one of the best Evo 8's I've ever seen. The fact that you've preserved everything good about Japanese performance in it is a rare sight indeed. They just don't get much better than this. Kudos from Japan.

[@barkyvonschnauzer2188]

I remember seeing one of these at a car show in Los Angeles back in 2002. And I was in awe, I badly wanted one. However, at the time I could not afford one. And I came across your video, after looking for a Lancer. You have done a beautiful job on this car, and I commend your dedication to bringing this beauty back to life. I love your passion and dedication to each and every detail. Thank you!!
