The Evo VIII FIRST DRIVE!

[@user-lz3xp7xd5r]

I love the yellow in the engine bay a lot. The blue titanium bolts with the black background goes really good together

[@connorprice1902]

Devin i rally love your content im a subaru owner myself own 5 wrxs so im a bit biased lol but ever since i watched your content im starting to really appreciate evos and i learnt soooo much now my next car has to be an evo 7

[@hanfederal3268]

yeahh man keep another evo back to life cant wait to see

I've always loved Evos. Devin Niemela has done nothing but made me love them more and gave me confidence in owning an Evo 8-10 someday.

[@laser-sj]

Its EASY to fill the front diff. Use a short bit of hose gaffer taped to a funnel and feed the hose down from above into the fill hole :)

[@jimmadonna1436]

I'm very happy for you Devin! It's crazy that the recirculation tube rubbing against the radiator was making all that noise. The look of utter happiness was awesome!. It has to be a euphoric feeling! I can't wait until tomorrow to see the first hard pull.

[@Smeedia]

Congrats Devin! Car looks crazy!

[@mysmidget01]

Good job hard work feels great when you stand back and look at what you did ,every bolt every screw , every part looks great

[@DriftDweller]

Cant stop smiling watching how happy you are 💪 Super stoked for this boys 🙏🔥

[@Crown_West]

This is the best build series on KZbin. Until your next one... congrats so pumped for you

[@saminrajabali6097]

I wish I had a friend like you Devin, you’re such a G with evos. Love your content man keep up the great work and I’m genuinely happy to see you excited for the 8

[@OkayJayy_]

Out of all your evo builds this is my favorite one 🔥💯

[@Fr33dom89]

By far my favorite build, please keep this one for awhile

[@devinbarker3738]

I can tell you're excited when you talk about driving it a few miles and get a big grin :)

[@vinuyajohn719]

Dang devin congratulations again...this is coming so good just how speechless. Congrats.

[@pnw6139]

Ride safe broski!

[@lindaniayanda313]

Can't wait to see the car on the road pulling big power. Nice job on the build

[@kylebrace9949]

Love the look of this thing look Incredible the colours just look insane has to be one of your best builds yet

[@horacecunningham7832]

Funny enough I made custom radiator brackets for my 4G69t today, had the same issue. Without the rubber bushings the radiator will rattle about while driving, zip ties wont work well. I made custom brackets out of aluminum sheets.

[@Jdm2005sti]

Catching up on videos. But congratulations on having the evo start up abs seeing and feeling all the hard work come together. 🔥

[@Anfurnyy]

upgrade that wastegate to a vband tial and then you'd have all the options for pipe routing! So freaking pumped to see this up and running finally! The way I fill my DSM's transfer case is just use that same exact fluid pump, and pump it into the fill plug until it starts to run out. Using that pump make it fairly easy. Filling through the drain seems like a lot more work to me. or pick up one of these and use it on the fill plug: Amazon.com: Slippery Pete Fluid Pump for Gallon Bottles and Wide Mouth Quart Bottles - Transfer Gear Oil, Transmission and Differential Fluid, Antifreeze with This 30cc Hand Pump: Automotive

[@johnny_916]

This is by far the BEST BUILD EVER!! Keep up the great work Devin!! 😎🏎💨💨💨

[@madbeat5]

Can't wait to see the whole front end mounted again, what a build my friend 👍

[@jeremyhamilton387]

Must be so hard to resist doing some pulls.. Super stoked for you brother! 🤘

[@austintrier8754]

You have more trust in those two lug nuts then I have in myself 😂

[@jayrooks7083]

Man I was thinking the same thing.. let alone he's on them home depot stud ass spacers.. I still say all this should have been done to the old black 8.

[@maverick2242]

Just watched a vid on a 600whp BRZ, this should be your next project, Boost the BRZ/FRS/86.. The EVO (Hyperblue) does look amazing 🤘

[@leandresavoie6915]

congrats man🙌 such a big project thats finally about to be completed!

[@alexschweinzger2610]

Yooo so hear me out. I’ve been watching u for years.. I’m a die hard mustang guy. I have a 2020 mustang gt bagged. But..... I bought my first evo 8 last Saturday bc watching this build is freaking sickkkkkk

[@angushouston8763]

That’s so stunning! Not a fan of the blue too much but I’m sure you’ll make that black one banging ⚠️‼️‼️

[@askylinesdivision]

So excited for you bro! This build is so crazy!

[@michaelbarroso6986]

Ngl is kinda sad about this build being almost done was really enjoying taking everything apart and making it clean asf

[@michaelalleyne7507]

I made a fitting with a check valve to screw into the fill port to completely fill the tcase

[@lavinwilliams9606]

Congratulations on the build she looks sick

[@Grooove_e]

It's always a good feeling when things just work after you've put in so much effort. Sure there may be little hiccups here and there, but having it m0ve under its own power is a huge achievement! 💯💪🏼

[@FenixTX717]

You should really run some solid or poly motor mounts to help from the motor moving so much. Sure you'll get some vibrations but worth it. The very least get a solid front motor mount.

[@joshbrown384]

Super sick build man, congratulations

[@thomasmurphy5906]

Very cool seeing it out of the shop and moving under it's own power

[@MJ_MINECRAFT]

I think there’s enough space to re-fab the dumb tube towards the engine side to have more clearance with the radiator

[@Thinbluelinecardetail]

amazing work Devin, you are an artist.

[@MBodegom]

Dude this is absolutely insane, ya nailed it 🤘

[@FuryJDM]

Glad the hyper blue is back up and running. I’m selling my hyper blue STI tomorrow 😭😝 On to the next project.

[@theELiTEboarder]

Gonna have to start calling you Devin “Sus” Niemela after the last few videos. Also if you measure the center cap hole diameter in mm’s for the grey evo’s wheels I’d like to try and 3D print you some center caps!

[@DrivenbyGears]

I sus agree...

[@odinsontm5368]

Stoked to see this running again.

[@raymondybarrap4556]

Looks awesome man so hyped for this to be finished 🔥

[@kaios8]

Watched start to finish on this build, looks so awesome 😎

[@justinlucero6652]

Alignment then dyno tune! 730 horsepower 👍🔥

[@marllleyy]

[@trumaninc]

Congratulations bro

[@MunichMotorsports]

You did a great job man 💯 Such a clean build

[@boostedperformance7762]

It sounds much better now than before turbo spools sounds really great

[@omarsilva6213]

The best car in you garage!!! I’m in love!

[@boostnasty4753]

Man that noise you heard before you took the turbo off was one of those pulleys.

[@hliast.5223]

Lessss gooo! Very proud for your build dude🖤

[@tomswindler64]

I’m glad to see you check over all your options instead of going Willy nilly and spend money you don’t need to do.good job good video 😎😎😎😎👍👍👍👍

[@robgobin2018]

Hell of a job man! Car looks awesome!

[@andrewehlers]

So stoked for it to be driving again

Super clean, congrats.

[@essamelias7408]

Definitely 💯💯💯 top.. Amazing build as always, keep it up, watching your builds all the way from Kenya 🇰🇪 Africa. Well done 💯🔰🔰🔰

[@barryhogenkamp]

Congrats great great job you can be "devin"tly proud of your work and all by yourself🔥🔥🔥👌

[@adrianjames5289]

I’ve waited for this day way to long ❤️

[@JaycobGTR]

Day 3 of sneaking out of work to watch his 🔥 videos fina be here in the restroom for a while 😬

[@bikerboytavv579]

🧢

[@fathercube]

No check engine light nice the noise could be the tensioner pulley

[@craigbullock8245]

Congrats Devin.

[@toxic-_-bunny1879]

Car is looking clean 🔥

[@simplyharley7639]

Wouldn't the half Rad get you more room for your turbo piping as well? If it gives you more space for the turbo I would say go for it.

[@SamConnaught]

Links everything but that sick little Tcase filling tool/fitting lol where do I get one!!!!

[@jayrooks7083]

Word up.

[@Biggspeed]

Gently "clearance" the bypass/recirc tube. A light or small depression would fix that for much cheaper.

[@chrishooks9194]

Looks like there may have been a taillight out on the VIII.

[@amiga4400]

Bellissima, lavoro super professionale 👍

Dope bro! Congratz! 👏😁

[@Onlyfads]

Congratulations 👏

[@ethanheinrichs5583]

I'm happy for you bro

[@collins556]

Welp sounds like it’s too late but you need a csf slim rad I have one on my ix and it clears a sheepey mani with room to spare

[@TheMot616]

Is there any way to get a smaller radiator under the front cross beam. Having not seen this closeup in person, as a novice , it is very difficult to tell.

[@cptrockstar3292]

I use to have a Evo 9 but got rid of it back in 07.... miss that car soo much. Worse car decision ever made was to get rid of that car.

[@ireckon7351]

Good work bro!

[@rickybobby7285]

I was wondering if they make the same full rad but 1 bar less thickness?

[@mjboy8790]

If your doing half rad now you gotta do forward facing set up

[@t_coolj9146]

Clean🔥🔥

[@t_coolj9146]

One of the best Evo and that turbo sound is music to my ears

[@andresitoux]

18:31 did u ran over a Deer Jared? .......

[@pintobrandon4326]

Do a forward facing turbo kit with the have radiator

[@medinablack5141]

Very nice color scheme!

[@aaronlane3598]

Some get me a “sus” count? Sounds like devins new word lately. I havnt heard it this much in one video😂

[@brianramirez932]

Love the videos! keep up the grind

[@khelygrishan6603]

I hope that sound is from the alternator i had the same noise from my car olso

[@jsltv5080]

dav i was freak out when you drove that badass with 2 bolts hahaha 🤣😂✌️

[@soisoi5182]

Awesome evo 🤙

[@Victor-nv3ez]

Whats the fitting part number ? The one used to fill the Tcase?

[@blairf7508]

Man get gate pipe moded and keep full size rad. A street car with half rad never the best thing losing surface area. Drops cooling efficiency.
