Just wanted to take a second and say you are killing it on the content lately. Nice work man and keep it up, you are basically one of my favorite automotive channels now.
Bro you have got to be one of THE most underrated creators in the automotive RUclips scene.. love your channel and just your general vibe and attitude. I could be wrong but imo you just seem like an all around happy and content person. Keep it up and much love from Hammond, Louisiana USA!
Learning about the rb from you. Thanks for taking us with you on this great journey! Also, I'm looking forward to your r32 project!! Its my favorite skyline!
Really can’t wait to see and hear the SR running! It’s exactly how I’d like to do it when I had one and planned to do from the ground up. Hope to be able to get in the scene when I’m financially stable again 🤞🏼😣. But oh boy I’m just so excited to see and hear yours running mate!
l.e.d. lighting is definately the way to go for all garages. i switched from four 4 bulb flourescent lights to four 2 bulb l.e.d. lights and it is a night and day difference. i also added a 2 bulb l.e.d. light over the work bench and another over my toolbox.
I have been using mid 90s Altima Fans on my S13 since 05. It's a cheap alternative. They are 3 speed and while the shroud will need some trimming, they cover decently well. I'll definitely keeping an eye on that trigger set up. Not sure if it will work with my Empathy ECU
Woo0ow.... That shifts so tight, I do have over 213,000 miles. it dose move "A Lot" when In gear⚙️ lil wry'ed now but never has popped out of gear. Great vid😊👍
Currently rebuilding my Sr in my 180sx and Its been good timing watching you rebuild yours. Eve. Though you are going to complete different legnths the concept has been the same. Should do a video covering all the tips when rebuilding sr20's.
Give a nissan quest alternator a try? 125 amp iirc... its been years since i did mine on my sr20 lol. But it stayed 14v all day and had no dips when running dual FALS and bunch of extra electronics
It’s always a good idea to change the damper pulley on old engines, since the rubber often used on stock ones degrades over time and in engines where the oil pump is driven off the crank it can mash the pump gears.
Nice to see another person tryin gthe 5-0 Ignite trigger kit! I am using this on my sr20 build as well! It's such a nice kit. EDIT: I just noticed that your kit looks different than the one I got from them about 6 months ago.. I wonder why they changed it.
Excellent Sam that you replaced the Harmonic Balance... one item over looked by many engine builders.... ps hope you change the oil in the new tranny when you sell it ...Be good karma for the next owner.
No lie, that R154 might of cost more than it should but I can't wait to see it go into the Chaser to bring it back to life. I wonder if Sam is talking about PAR Engineering who makes dog gearsets for the R154 but we'll see. I can't wait to see the S15 come back to life!
$3000 usd for r154 is a rip, it only costs about $3300 AUD (about $2500 USD) for one in Australia straight from the dealership and with shop discount its around $2800 AUD
On the alternator upgrade, a company I used to deal parts for called Tuff Stuff Performance does billet upgraded amperage LS alternators, as well as many other accessories like power steering, etc. Lifetime warranty, made in USA. Might be worth looking into if you want to go the LS conversion route.
No I don't believe he is. Dual guides are definitely the way to go if they are measured out and done properly. I have an old video on my channel explaining dual guides.
Yo Sammit. Send me a link on the CAS replacement trigger kit. Im liking what I see. And reference alternators. The C11 Tiida has a 140amp alternator while the SR20 has a 90 amp. Im considering using that on my SR20. Whats your view on that?
when i rebuild alt 's it is all luck in how much amps they put out its like a crap shoot and depends on the parts that you put together , they only have a few pieces inside once you get one open
@@wickidtoymaker742 check the rear strut towers, they have a tendency to rot(depending on region). The oe suspension is better than most of the eibach and similar lowering springs, far more balanced(atleast from when i trying stuff out in early 2000's). Unless you are going decent coilovers setup by someone who knows what they are doing just get new struts if the springs look good and replace old bushings around the car. Check over you brake lines, bleed all the fluid, and i would just replace the rubber flex brake lines just for peace of mind and a firm peddle. The brake setup was very nice and an upgrade for alot of cars back then, but even economy brakes of today have larger rotors than early 90's sports cars. The nx2000 has a 4x100 bolt pattern which kind of limits rim choices. but if you are every looking to go larger brakes look into versa/b15ser front hubs and see if you can make that work, it would get you a 4x114.3 bolt pattern 280mm rotor and decent pads that are still cheap. Along those lines im pretty sure you can make j30/q45 duel piston calipers work with versa/b15 rotors so that would be another upgrade. Change gear oil and hope its been done over the years so the lsd still works. Get used to a cable clutch :P above anything else good tires, make sure fluids are flushed and good. Enjoy a super light well handling car. Also alot of the b13 ser forums will be off use, most of the platform and hardware are the same, nx just had better brakes and suspension so alot of questions can be asked there, aswell as ideas for how to tune the car if you go that route
@@nickgrundtisch6798 wow ty man I will look into everything you pointed out. Lol I just don't know what motor I have in it everything is in Japanese but it's a left hand drive
Damn we get them cheaper in the states how's that? Think they are at $2800 now. Makes me not want to change my mind on my cd009 swap. Cd009 u think is $1900 lol ill take $1000 less for a stronger trans. I really wish these were more stout but they just aren't:/. Hope u have better luck on a new box.
Hey Sam you could always get some probably off of Adam he'd be able send you a couple of the alternators from ls cars I'd bet he'd have some at his shop
Brand X Electrical will build you an alternator to spec, and will even powdercoat it the perfect pink to match. Look them up on FB.
Bassheads always recommend brand x or mechman😂😂

LZ sucks. Sams better

The body of the car is in good condition after 20yrs and that's insane. I think that car has a soul lol
Definitely keen to see it happen as well🔥
I can help with the Alternator and Compressor. I am a Rebuilder based in Japan if you are interested.

For the alternator you could search for a nissan tiida 140 amp alternator should be easy to get in Japan

That engine is simply a work or art and appreciate all the work gone it to getting it to such hi standard.
Check out the dcpower alternator for the sr. High quality, high amp, and looks bad ass

I'd honestly hold onto the new r154
Why theres like 6 on gumtree at the moment, theyre rubbish
Excellent Sam that you replaced the Harmonic Balance... one item over looked by many engine builders.... ps hope you change the oil in the new tranny when you sell it ...Be good karma for the next owner.
Hey Sam, will you be doing a full run down of the build once finished? Might help others who are looking at upgrades for their SRs myself included 😉
Engine is starting to look so good! Hope it treats you well :)
Love the videos Sam your my favorite RUclipsr man. I can't wait for you next upload.
A projector generates a lot of heat which can make a room pretty hot quickly fyi
Look into Toyota Prius Cooling Fans, If I recall correctly they a good bang for your buck fans if you buy them used…
No lie, that R154 might of cost more than it should but I can't wait to see it go into the Chaser to bring it back to life. I wonder if Sam is talking about PAR Engineering who makes dog gearsets for the R154 but we'll see. I can't wait to see the S15 come back to life!
Awesome content man cant wait to hear the motor scream
dc power inc does high output rebuilds on alternators theyre in california so if youre not changing to thermo fans instantly that might be an option
I was secretly wanting you to straight pipe the Hiab Crane truck
🤘🔊🔊🔊😎
I think the ar5 transmission is basically just a r154 just alot newer they share alot of similarities
Engine is looking amazing! Are you not using the Yashio water neck upgrade though?
slanted head if want no rocket arm problem
Keep up the good content , love ya @sammit !
jzx110 r154's sell for 2600-2800usd brand new here in the states
Have you never just used a mechanical sensor before, like a tick gauge?
Sucks about the transmission, but I feel the pain, just had to pay over 2,600 for the Jasper transmission in my truck.
Dammit Sam-it look awesome.. the SR Engine that is ;P
Looking forward to see it in the car again and hear it purrrr.
CHEERS!
$3000 usd for r154 is a rip, it only costs about $3300 AUD (about $2500 USD) for one in Australia straight from the dealership and with shop discount its around $2800 AUD
Sam do the Nissan Quest 120amp alternator grab the Cody ace bracket. I have 0 power drop! It’s killer!
LS Alternators can be adapted and have even more amperage.
On the alternator upgrade, a company I used to deal parts for called Tuff Stuff Performance does billet upgraded amperage LS alternators, as well as many other accessories like power steering, etc. Lifetime warranty, made in USA. Might be worth looking into if you want to go the LS conversion route.
man i cant wait till that sr20 starts
can somebody help me, what paintcode does the yashio factory pink have
like in 0:40
when Sam originally had his car painted he said it was candy pink but they don't have an exact code the painter mixes it up for them
I've just blown my sr up in NZ and with the price on things thoughts on trying to go threw japan? And eny info on how to go about it sites ect?
yo sammit whens ur next drift comp ?
also your chaser is a MISSILE!!!
longvenjivity hahaha
you can get a brand X 270amp alt thats a LS alt, the BrandX is top notch bro
Have you looked at the dc power inc altenators
I don’t recommend shifting gears in trani with no fluid set in
Hey Sammit, do you think the market for jdm cars will go down again? Really depressing how crazy the prices are rn
It should but then again we’ll see what happens since you know inflation ….
If the availability is less prices will go up
I wonder if this would be compatible with Megasquirt.
500K in notime with this fire content mate!
My SR20 in my S13 looks garbage to me now. Time for a rebuild and a tidy up 😃
Careful with the crane truck mate, can go wrong pretty quick if you don’t know what your doing
Thats a jzx110 r154 i believe. When i bought mine new it was 2300aud from toyota haha, that was before the whole jzx drift tax
Time for the sr to roar into life
How come you didn’t do the dual guide mod for your rocker arms?
Mechman alternators they can powder coat pink
Love from Portugal man! Keep it up
Cool upgrades man but whats longvengivity? Lol. About 13:40 ish.
I like FuelTech i think thats name from the Brasiliam ECU THAT IS SO COOL
Really liking the content!
Sammit quick question is it possible to import 2 jdm cars from Japan ??
Sammit i think you become my favorite RUclipsr
Hey sam are you running dual guides on the rockers ??
No I don't believe he is. Dual guides are definitely the way to go if they are measured out and done properly. I have an old video on my channel explaining dual guides.
@@SylasG I just sent mine out to mazworx

The trigger kit is made by 5-0 Ignite. Pretty easy to find the website.
@@SylasG thanks. I'll look into it.
@@conradsealy9603 check the description the link is there
@@oussema7807 thanks. Got it already. Already looked at it on the website. Its Australian. Looks good.
Any updates on the R32?
It looks great mate.
Send it...😍😍😍🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Notification squad! Love your videos Sam, keep up the good work! 🤟🏽
Literally commented 2 minutes before you ☠️
Sammit you need to go tell Adam LZ about that trigger kit!
Mate Ross make a complete trigger kit:) take a look
Is that Ignite trigger kit compatible with Nismotronic?
0:09 sam is sus, those trucks are used to steal cars 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
That’s one pretty SR motor
Glad Sam never removed those GT decals on the van's hatch from the previous owner.
Sammitさんの動画が大好きです！^~^ あなたの動画はいつも私を幸せな気分にしてくれます 😎😊✌🏼
Hey sammit, are you planning on going p12 20v head anytime in the future ?
0:46 is that your old front bumper in the trash pile?? cause I WANT IT
when i rebuild alt 's it is all luck in how much amps they put out its like a crap shoot and depends on the parts that you put together , they only have a few pieces inside once you get one open
IS the company PPG...?? and or OS Giken
Rem and EMT: Husband filmming us
Love the content! What is uncle's channel?
For your cam inlet/valve sensor?
Nissan tiida alternator, where I'm from bass heads and rb guys use it
How do you get the cam cover like that? Grinder to get the effect then colour clear?
That HIno crane truck probably has a beefy alternator... just sayin'.
Lmao funny enough this comment made my day lol
I don't have a GTR but what are your thoughts on the 93 Nissan NX2000?
Great cars, agile, handle super well. I have been trying to find one again for years to no avail.

will that trigger kit work with a AEM series 2?
Nissan Quest alternator ?
Hey Sam is there Like TÜV in Japan Like in my Home country Germany?
when will the evo come back or any update on that
Yes Sammit. 😎
Aren't they like double the price in the us correct me if I'm wrong here
Wanted to let you know, that R154 is for a JZX110, not a 100.
When is the vid for the evo coming
Since you're in Japan upgrade to the Nissan tiida/versa 160A alternator
Love the vids mate
Why for some odd reason, I always spin out on Ebisu circuit.
Haha you didn’t mention Mazda RX tax 🥺
Yay Sammit!
