@@dwayneterrell3143 yes I did. Ordered at the same time.

@@shautohaus thanks fam.....

@@xzanitygames6217 yep. No issues.

@@ayrtonm7907 thanks for the feedback. I've done 4 oil changes on this car and I only used the manufacturer recommended viscosity.

@@shautohaus Smart man, not just any 0w20, 509 spec

I'm from right there in the video. Was literally standing outside my grandparents house when I took it. I remember and know the taximen very well.

@@wonjun8042 what I mean is to remove the airbag from the cover and then try to align it and put it back together. Instead of doing that I tried to adjust it while it was still in the airbag cover and that was very difficult to do.

@@ryanzarzaur that's awesome man. Barber is my absolute favorite track.

@@shautohaus Do you live around the area?

@@ryanzarzaur no. About two hours away in the Atlanta area.

@@didou9zero I think maybe momentarily, but honestly can't remember now.

Thanks. I ended up sourcing them and have them now.

Yes and I also source parts from Rock Auto and local Mitsubishi dealers. If you watch my first video I mention my first ever car was a 1998 Mirage.

Yep. Was surprised myself, but came in great condition. Just took a while.

@@shautohaus all the little things create perfection

Good to know. I figured it could take water, but with the age of the engine I just felt more comfortable doing it hoseless. Particularly since so many of the electric clips and brittle and I was nervous of water getting in the connections.

Thanks man. You got it. A bunch of people have done it based on this video. It's doable. Just go slow and take your time.

Hey. I finally found the energy to do it today. I believe you could have aligned the little flat pins on the airbag with the notches on the black flanges. I also used zipties to hold the flanges together to slide the top bit with the electronics on the airbag. Then when all the flanges were in I cut the zipties. Anyway these are just tips for the next guys who do this! Thanks a huge lot for the video man! Really helpful!!!❤️

@@doctorschultz7139 thanks for sharing man. Great tips. Glad you took the plunge and hope it turned out well.

I am running EBC Yellows with stainless steel brake lines, r1 concepts slotted rotors, and Castrol SRF fluid. Great initial bite, but the EBCs do fade after about 10 minutes. If changing the pads were easier I might go with a more aggressive pad for the track and a less aggressive one for the street.

Gloss carbon bro

@@mahimislam3761indeed what i did.

I believe I moved everything over.

Right! Such a bummer.

@@shautohaus yes it is heartbreaking but it doesn't look to difficult to touch up

BTW did you receive my email reply?

@@UzumakiGarage you know I think I did, but now I can't seem to find it 😞. Been so busy this spring.

Hey I found it thanks. Super helpful.

Great tip.

Agreed. Honestly I couldn't even fit 18s even if I wanted to. 17s are perfect for this generation of cars.

Based on what I've found of the production numbers of the GSR only ~10% were black. Agreed though that Blue and Red were the most rare colors it came in.

Also appreciate you watching and commenting. Always awesome to get engagement from folks.

@@shautohaus Clean car, take care of it. 5-10 years ago you could get a evo 4 for $7k-$11k all day long. Now they hardly exist up here. They rust fairly easy. I use to have a 6, fun cars. I miss it.

I'm not sure if you can get it already put together. Never seen that honestly. Don't think any company would take on the liability, but could be wrong.

Thanks. I'm not sure why it won't separate. Honestly, that part surprised me with how simple it came apart. Do you have a small plastic tool that's a little curved at the end like I have in the video?

Yes i got lots of them that I used, but it really doesn't even move slightly. my airbag cover is pretty dented everywhere already. Funny thing is everything else was quite easy, like the airbag came off very easily from the steering wheel

@@shadowofflame_ is it dented from trying to pry it apart or other reasons? Do you want to message me on IG with some pictures and I'll take a look. @sh_autohaus

​@@shautohaus I sent you a message on Insta but I don't think you've seen it yet, might be in Requests

Took me 20 years so don't give up hope.

Thanks man.

So I actually contacted the local Mitsubishi dealer here in the Atlanta area and never heard back from them. Left a voicemail and email with their parts folks. Will have to try again if I need large parts like this.

Love to hear that. Thanks for commenting.

My friend, I got 9 videos I don't have enough time to edit. But at least I have content.

🤣🤣🤣. I'll preorder if you make them. And ain't no money in CZcams my friend. At least not for me.

@@shautohaus ...Definitely a market opening. hope the TSVs work. I'm contemplating the TFRs in 17x8et45 to replace my wrx base 17x8 wheel...cheers

Thanks! I love the fogs on the Evo 4 & 5. A true rally car look. Yes it is manual. You honestly get used to shifting with your left hand pretty quick. The turn signal and wipers being switched is harder to get used to.

Love it. Absolutely love my Audi everytime I get into it and love the Evo. Both so different, but both a blast to drive.

@@shautohaus both are 4wd so you can test who does better

Thanks. Yeah I'm starting to realize that. Gonna get the car aligned and get the brakes done and then determine what to do regarding the wheels and tires.

Let me know how it turns out if you try it. Thanks for watching.

Thanks. Absolutely love the look of them on the car.

Awesome man. What kinds of things have you been doing to it?

@@shautohaus I've done Evo8 brembo brakes all around. Wheels/tires and maintenance. I will need to do coilovers next. Saw you did the Fortune Auto, so waiting to see that vid drop before I decide what to go with.

@@JDMTasMav hey what wheels and offset are you running? Are you getting any rubbing? Also, I did the coilovers this week and they are exceptional. Will hopefully get the video out in a month or so, but excited to see how they perform on the track.

@@shautohaus 17x7 +38. I also have +23 spacers all around to clear the brembos. They do run on hard dips

@@JDMTasMav oh wow. That's a lot of spacer. What size tire are you running?

Thanks! One of those cars that you just always look back at when you get out of it.

Don't worry, my wallet is just one giant hole with this car at the moment 🤣🤣🤣😭

Good advice. Been using it so far and it has good clearance so no issues to date, but electrical tape is a great suggestion.

What do you recommend for the 4? It may come down to new wheels and tires in the end. We shall see soon.

I'm really hoping that you won't need to try another set, but I guess you'll see how it goes, step by step.

@@narsylvester it's all part of the journey in the end. It will be a bit before I get to editing it, but I'm doing the coilovers this week, so by week's end I'll have my answer.

@@shautohaus Yes indeed on the journey. Looking forward to seeing the follow up videos. Cheers.

The offset for these wheels are a 35 (17x8). The old wheels were so old I couldn't even find out what they were. They were some kind of Bridgestone wheel from Japan. I spent a bunch of time researching and most of the Evo community said 35 and less were okay. We'll see how it turns out.

​... you know you could measure yourself. back spacing - (1/2 the width) should result in the offset (convert to metric unless you started in metric.....

@@K03sport I did a bunch of calculations before I bought, but I wasn't going from stock which was the problem. I have since done a bunch of measurements, but always good to hear from the community and understand their experiences 👍🏽

Grazie per aver guardato e commentato. Purtroppo manterrò l'originale nel caso in cui ne avessi bisogno in futuro.

Ok peccato, ma condivido il tuo pensiero

Thanks for watching and commenting

It's been a fun journey, but it comes with some challenges for sure. My hope is that these videos will help shorten the learning curve for those that come after me, but preserving and restoring these cars is no easy feat.

Thanks for watching and commenting. Lots of content coming for sure if I can find the time to edit.

My wife thought I was gonna swap them out. She said they are hideous 🤣🤣🤣

Yep, very aware of the potential crank walk issue. It's why I don't depress the clutch pedal when I start the vehicle.
