*This car is now SOLD*
This is my personal car. The legendary championship winning rally car driven by the famous Tommi Mäkinen. This is a 1998 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 5 GSR. The video speaks for itself.
Note: I tried to use Saabkyle's videos as a guideline. Please do not get offended if this video appears as a copy of his. I tried very hard to make this video in my own way. Saabkyle does not have access to wonderful JDM cars like this, since most of the JDM's imported to the states are over 25 years of age.
Cheers!

Even today, the 90's EVOs still looks good.

im a subie guy, but man, the 90's evo's were awesome
Thanks for this one man ! Saabkyle doesn't have a review for this masterpiece. Thank you so much you've got one, coz planning to get one of this !
thats a wonderful car right there, one of my goals in life is to have one of em, thanks for the great video man. it was inspirational for me :D
Awesome video man, I hope that evo is still kicking up dust in the Canadian rally trails, wish we could get those in the USA, cheers mate!
Good video, great car. I drive a 2005 Evo 8MR and it is incredible. Enjoy.
Thanks bud, I just got one so it's good to know I made a good choice.
You should fix that Mitsubishi logo if you haven't already. It looks awful in that state.
My favorite evo just beautiful. Would love to import one or convert a mirage into one some day. Great walk through
you have a nice piece there brother , take care of her cause cars like that get harder and harder to find especially in stock form. once again congrats , beautiful
beautiful machine!
that's a great video!
I've seen a few here in cali, and in the petsmart I work in, our manager has a 1999 mirage evo 4 conversion, with the dsm 4g63 in it.

You should also have cup holders that's underneath your ash tray. Would be nice if I had a sun roof on mine haha 😊 nice video

Which model do you have? Although a sunroof would be nice for the road, one without is more stable of a chassis.. I would prefer a hard top but then again it I had any opportunity to buy any Evo up to 7 in California I would in a heartbeat
I love the interior of the 90’s Jap cars. Really basic and clean, everything you need and nothing you don’t need. Lovely car 😎
Awesome car bro
Wow... The interior design on the evo V is a lot better looking than the 8 and up

Does anyone ever have trouble finding parts for Evo 5s in canada? Im drooling over one on kijiji right now but my concern is waiting a month to get parts shipped from japan when something breaks and paying a ton for shipping charges..
What did you like about the evo and the r33 that the other didn’t offer? Which ones more spacious for the driver?
it what hes on the proper side of the car
Nice daily driver bro
Contemplating importing one of these or an Evo 4. Do you happen to remember what auction grade your Evo was and how much you imported for? There are Evo 4s going around for sweet prices lately and they're all grade 3 or 3.5. I would love to have an Evo 5 though. I find that the body style looks better.
Dang I wish I had that climate control in the evo 8... this is awesome!
Nice vid
where did you buy that evo 5 from? where do you live Canada?
So jealous of the sunroof. Wish mine had one, they seem to be pretty rare.
EVO 5 RS are amazing! If only they came with the Recaros. I love that they don't have that troublesome AYC that are in the GSR.
Nice video man thankyou! What is your Evo RPM when doing around 70/80mph in 5th gear? Cheers!
I was calling the overall car reliable when factoring in the transmission and diffs. I see you have an EVO 9, the EVO 5 has some minor issues with the diffs, mainly the AYC, and in that regard is less reliable, but the motor is bulletproof. And yes to some extent the RB26 is extremely reliable, although parts don't come cheap. There's nothing like the way the RB26 adds power with so few modifications.
Drive thru killa for sure.
I looked away, look back at the video and see him showing the shifter. My reaction was "Oh shit! His is right hand drive!" lol
My dream car
Question from germany here: Is the fog light switch illuminated? I did not see that there was a light in the dash itself to show that the lights are on. I‘m currently setting my Evo 5 up to get it registered and in germany you need to have an illuminated symbol indicating that the fog lights are on.

Great video. How did you find driving the EVO RHD where LHD is the norm? I'm debating between getting an EVO conversion with LHD or RHD. Leaving it LHD would be cheaper, but RHD just seems cooler, plus I drove RHD a bit while living in Australia.

Is it suppose to have a loud valve tick like that?
pretty good find to get one with a sunroof.. interesting how it doesn't have the centre cluster of gauges though. I own one and I love it

I have a normal ck1 lancer and those after market intake is mess it best you get back the original because the blower motor tends to blow eat in that area so you are going to lost some horse power.
it is missing its evolution V markers on the rear side doors also
what about the dogfront exhaust?
Whats with the miss match interior?
was the resprayed or did you just take the stickers off on the doors?
So lucky!!
nice evo 5
will this evo ever be legal in the states??
As for the RB26 . I have a r32 GTR and never ever had a problem . Now the R32 is over 20 years old so some things will have to be changed soon , normal wear . As for the RB26 , the only "Achilles heal" is the oil pump by way of the crankshaft . At very high RPM the oil pump slips of the crank's oil ring and bad things will happen. In general Thats about it when it comes to RB issues .
I've never driven a BCNR33, but if I had to choose one, it would be an easy choice...the R33 GT-R. More reliable, wayyyy more tuning potential and that legendary roar of the RB26 takes it for me.
My favorite evo
What do you mean we can't get these in America?
i know nothing about cars but could you put a rb26 in an evo?
how much was the car?
sweet ride there!!! just wondering where u bought this?
Same 4g63 engine from evo 1-9 tweeked as the years go by.

In Canada we have a 15 year importing law (meaning we can import a vehicle of 15 years or older), whereas in the States its a 25 year law.
What was the name of the opening song? And amazing car dude.
The Evo 1-6 are the best ones for me
Very cool car man, I found your video searching for infos about the evo 5's. I'm switching from a honda s2000. May I have some questions about the car in private?

If you look at the back seat it has a blue seat belt with the male end of the buckle. The harness has the female end on the back of the seat just clip them together and your good to go. But I was always told not to have the harness going down on the back because it can hurt your spine in an accident
How much did I cost you to import? I'm gonna be Importing in the upcoming months

wow great car how much did it cost in total to purchase?
There's always a way to get around the law..but the law does stand at 25 years in the States. Most people get a wrecked 240sx and when they import a skyline or a Silvia, they stick the VIN badge of the 240sx on the other car and basically claim that it is a 240 with a Skyline or Silvia body conversion. There's definitely ways around it, I'm not aware of them all, but this is one I hear about all the time.
I'm talking about legitimate imports. Yes there are illegal ones, but I've seen cars with legitimate titles too.

They are state legal, it's easy to do that. They are not however federally legal. The rule is 25 years.
haha yup! All EVO 5's were made in Japan as RHD.
this is probably the first time ive seen someone calling the RB26 "reliable" lol.
Hmmm..I have no clue then bro lol :-)

Really? I've seen numerous imported cars less than 15 years old here in California. I've seen everything from Evos to Skylines to Silvias around here.
I don't know why you would, but hey, if you can fit a 2JZ in a BRZ, then you can do anything haha.
not all evo 5... theres a lhd version wich i own..goes to europe and central america .
