In this day and age car manufacturers compete on a world wide basis and many of them offer cars which seem to be modified directly from the factory, this is where our current feature starts. Many people would be happy owning an EVO 8 but luckily enough for Intuned Online our friend Daniel doesn’t want his car to be just another assembly line machine. To say a bit about Daniel, he’s a JDM enthusiast from his head down to his license plate and started his project with the amazing EVO 8 and transformed it into a JDM beast you see today. On the exterior Daniel was meticulous with choosing his parts like a Chocket front bumper, Ings+1 side skirts and Voltex rear diffuser along with many other JDM touches. Under the hood was a barrage of high end JDM items from HKS, Toda, ARC & Cusco. Suspension is always important so Daniel chose a Tanabe Sustec Pro kit with some help from the Beatrush front & rear bars.

The interior of this EVO was not only unique but looked like a JDM wish list with Bride seats and matching custom Bride work, Takata Harnesses were installed to hold Daniel & his passenger safely in place as well as Defi gauge setup to monitor all the power under the hood. Daniel’s EVO is one of the nicest we’ve seen and another great example of time & research spent building a JDM dream machine.
