The EVO 4/5/6 RS was very specifically produced for WRC homologation to be sold to privateers for the Group N class and were ordered from the dealers as such. That is why the came sparsely equipped. Down to the front brake calipers that fit dirt dia. rims (15") and the Brembo's where installed from factory on the car and the dirt calipers where found packaged in the truck of the car. That is also why the gearing in the RS is so short as those cars top out at 130mph in short dirt stages.

[@meanman6992]

That’s my dream car! Used to have a 1g GSX, 2900lb 340awhp… 360 and 200lb lighter. 😮‍💨

[@thekingmezger]

The V RS is the best of all EVOs The RS gearbox has closer ratios (gears 3,4 & 5) compared to the GSR gearbox for better acceleration. Top speed of the RS model to around 140mph while the 0-60 time is a fraction faster than that of the GSR. The RS model doesn’t have ABS or Active Yaw Control and the car is 100kg lighter due to lighter panels and lightweight window glass. - Black door handles and black wing mirrors - No rear wash wiper - No front fog lamps, - Fitted with 15" steel wheels (optional to have GSR wheels) - Only available in Scotia white - Smaller leather Momo steering wheel (365mm) with no airbag (380mm with airbag on GSR) - No central locking and no radio-type keyless entry system - Quicker steering rack, 2.1 max turns (2.3 on the GSR) - Option of either a normal open front differential or a helical gear Limited Slip Differential ('worm gear' type) - Rear differential is a mechanical LSD

Wrong on the colors, 20 in red, 2 yellow and 1 silver were produced. Obviously extremely rare. A red one was on the market recently and have seen pictures of one of the yellows

[@thekingmezger]

@@yerrsquadtv6394 you are correct but they are so rare I question if they actually did in fact build the other colors!

[@yerrsquadtv6394]

@@thekingmezger they definitely did. Saw one of the yellows was a rally car, and one red one was on the market recently in Australia (I think). Either way good luck finding any other color for sale other then white lol

[@thekingmezger]

@@yerrsquadtv6394 you are right I remember seeing the red one for sale! Definitely chimaeras !

[@cvillalobos27]

Made for customer racers. That is the reason is void of equipment and the original wheels were iron, and crap brakes. The customers were to strip them down and put rally gear

[@AndyTHC4me]

Man fingers crossed! I’ve never won anything in my life and I need a ride (.) my work truck threw a rod which the motors are known for 4 months after paying it off. So I currently am ride less, and I can’t afford to get anything right now. It’s making life suck literally walking and taking busses,rides from friends(which is rare tbh). Not trying to have anyone feel sorry for me just venting to the computer screen. This is a dream car of mine as well i used to have a vr4 back in high school. This would be a dream, who needs an oil change in July!? Gonna start asking everyone I know, make some money on the side and win this baby!!! Let’s go!!!!

[@josemarrero9979]

Awesome survivor build. It will be mine. Oh yes, it will be mine. Remember Chelsea ripping on his bmw at the "yard" on a daily transmission when Hoonigan channel was on its peak years ago.

[@scottmaz4063]

Great video Louis

[@russellcollier1599]

Great job with the interview.

[@karriemsodfbt6166]

Love it... whoever wins this will love it...From a GSR EVO 5 Owner

[@thekingmezger]

Agree

[@_elfego]

facts, I love my 5 GSR

[@Lukemasonmedia]

Evo 5 is probably the Evo I would want most ❤

[@KamikazeBRockets]

That dark grey MRS was at All Star Bash a long time ago and was an absolute ripper. Never seen anyone drive one the same way since.

[@lokaj1474]

Thats a long #2 Larry lol

[@LarryChenPhoto]

Lol, I was in Malaysia 😅

Lol, hey Larry in Malaysia 🇲🇾

This has to be the coolest giveaway car I've seen

[@knowntalker135]

I'm going to get oil to get entered... subaru guy at heart but can see how amazing this car is and would be my first right hand car

[@pauljohnson7382]

Love when vehicles are given a second...third...even a fourth chance...Nice Upload Non-Larry sub! 👊 Chelsea!...🤘

Louis, please use some wind protection on the mics!

[@vincentloh1330]

It's a good car for keeping the ledgen of Evo

[@spookydog6959]

Louis dude👍

[@garlenseong38]

Sweet street car build....

[@schnell_mutt6902]

I went to this event and saw the evo in the parking lot and thought,”I wonder who’s evo this is.” Didn’t expect it to be Denofa’s, talk about a diverse collection.

Thank you for this ❤

Does anyone know the outro song?

I've got an ultra rare ARC wing blade for this for sale

[@Carfans256]

🔥

[@Delta19G]

Nice dream car for someone. Hope i can win

[@erickgoesbeep]

Why were the camber plates installed in that orientation? I always thought for BC the "L" and "R" symbol should be facing outwards the engine bay? Is it for a different camber/caster setup?

[@ChasingPerfection]

I would assume R is for the right side aka passenger and L is for the driver side. 3 bolt plate will only go in one direction that orientates the adjustment in the camber direction.

[@erickgoesbeep]

What I meant was how the L and R symbol is suppose to face outwards instead of inwards meaning the plate is technically flipped upside down the way he has it, but i’m not sure if that was intentionally done or not.

[@chelseadenofa]

The caster was wrong (0.5° off) for US roads. so we flipped it to get it perfect.

[@obsidian....]

So much better than Larry doing these. You should always do them 🙏

[@rotorhead5826]

If it were the perfect daily, he wouldn't give it away!

[@autosim7]

Is the front bumper cracked!??

[@chelseadenofa]

Yes. It’s not perfect but well enjoyed.

[@autosim7]

@@chelseadenofa that's awesome

[@datnippadaz]

Sometimes people make fun of Americans from all the shiz they do like using miles instead of kms, ounces and gallons instead of kgs and litres or more serious stuff like starting trouble with every other country around the world or sanctioning other countries for doing things they can’t do themselves but nothing is more hilarious than seeing a couple of yanks still excited over an old EVO like they just only now discovered it😂 God f***ing bless them! Aside from that, EVOs are good cars and worth being excited for even if it’s over a decade later 👍

[@juddy953]

That engine is a grenade waiting to go off at that power level.

[@chelseadenofa]

Not with proper tuning and e85. It’s 340whp on pump and 400 on e85.

[@juddy953]

@chelseadenofa evo 5,6 and 7 have weaker rods that are only good around the 300hp mark. Anything more it's risky unless u pull heaps of power out of the down low and mid range

[@Floz000]

Not really a 5 or 6 issue. There were some years that affected most 7's (but not the latest built), and I think some TME's, but otherwise the rods are the same as 8/9. The car is old though, so might have some rod issues, but not due to differing design weaknesses. The 4 (the first of modern gen 4G63Ts) had crankwalk problems though.

[@meanman6992]

Settle?? Insulting

[@RandyLe-cb2eb]

U saw tj hunt evo ? U saw thjunt r34 skyline got offered like $600,000

[@shunsloman9313]

My guy has a ladies name

[@ZakuIIKai]

Hopefully whoever wins this has the thousands of dollars lying around for when they have to pay tax on this.

[@RICARD01]

Not at all. State values are not what we see them as. They listed my r32 as $850. Lol.

[@ZakuIIKai]

@@RICARD01 ARV on the car is listed as $55,000 any prize over $600 is considered taxable income. I'd have to pay 12.5% tax on that in my state.

[@RICARD01]

@ZakuIIKai nope. Transfer to family member...then buy it for $1

[@ZakuIIKai]

@@RICARD01 it is not taxed as a car. It is taxed as income. They give you a tax form declaring the value of the prize. You are then taxed accordingly. That's why a lot of large giveaways also give cash with high value prizes, it's to cover the taxes.

[@RICARD01]

@@ZakuIIKai taxes, schmaxes....transfer, then buy. The loophole is there.

[@Nicky_GTR]

Buy my Evo 5 RS. $18K USD

[@stevemasters4748]

An EVO RS is far from a perfect daily

[@omgness1234]

KZbin cars is 4 door = perfect daily

[@chelseadenofa]

Why so? Cold AC, reliable 400whp, big trunk, etc. it’s better than my current e36 daily in terms of capabilities.

[@lyttonwilliams7161]

let Ben from gears ⚙️ and gasoline ⛽️ drive 🚗 it.
