Thanks for the nice words guys!
I am so keen to see this thing finished. There is not much left to have her fully finished and ready be driven on the roads if I am able to get her registered anymore. Here's few pictures of the Datsun at the show and a video where to see the best bits. I AM NOT the owner of these photos. If you are going to repost, please send me message so I can send you a link to the owner of the photos, thank you.

Thanks man!!
I got super excited when I received a message on fb "bro, your car is on speedhunters post" Now.. This is what I've been thinking for some time now. Will I go old school with mechanical "race" switches or will I just get something like Ecumasters PMU with CAN keypad and replace the full body wiring harness with it. If you have something to recommend, please let me know! Ecumasters only have 12position keypad and it really does not have enough buttons for my use. :/

seeing as though you made it on speedhunters and are clearly fairly well known for you build maybe they would be willing to do a bit of sponsorship and make and make a panel with extra buttons for you, if you ask them?
I cannot imagine it being that much extra work for them. |

___ Just got some 3" stainless steel tubing for exhaust and started to look how I'll be able to mount the internal wastegates to her. I'll post some pictures when I start actaully doing shit instead of just planning.

Well hello hello hellou!
Downpipes are 90% finished, no update pictures on those yet. Going to order some more piping, 3"->4" stainless steel adapter and some small bits soon. This is what I've planned so far. A bit "extreme", but when I look at this monstrosity it makes me feel like it suits the car. I've heard mixed opinions about it, but I'll go with this for now. Also trying to make the exhaust straight as possible as I am afraid that the 3" exhaust is not large enough for 2bar boost levels. We'll see after getting her on dyno. I'll be driving this thing to a another show in two weeks. It's only 60miles away from me so it's a good "test drive" to do some adjusting to the map during normal driving. Also installed the wastegates and made a bracket for the lower turbo wastegate as it does not have enough room where garrett has it designed to be installed.

Well hello hello hello!
I hope someone is reading forums even tho Final Bout is here. Keen to see some videos and photos from the event! Seems to be something I'd love to go see some day. I decided to try give this car a first long test drive a week ago. There was a car show 60miles away from me and our "team" Lunatics had their own booth there so why not? I drove around 40miles before the car shutted itself down suddenly. Drove the car safe spot and removed battery negative terminal to be safe. Opened up the hood and everything seems to be fine at quick look. Installed the negative terminal back on and turned fuel pump on and there was ethanol spraying to the engine bay! O-Ring from the 1st injector popped out. Called buddy of mine to pick me up with a trailer.. As a co-owner of Lunatics, I went to Kajaani on different ride. At Monday I went back to garage to see what is wrong. Seems like the injectors are not sealing or rather going deep enough to the fuel rail. I shortened the spacers between the fuel rail and intake manifold and the problem got even worse. Seems like the spacers were machined too short from the factory for these injectors.. Welp, with some washers I got the fuel rail and injectors seal properly and now the problem seems to be solved! I'm lucky that the car did not burn to ashes from my own stupid and mistake... Well, everything and everyone is okay! ____ Before leaving to the show we finished up the exhaust and I installed rest of the power steering parts. This driftmotion billet oil reservoir is really really nice! All the lines are now AN and the pressure line from pump to the steering rack is from driftmotion too. Everything bolted up nicely and I found a nice place to mount the reservoir too. Pretty happy with this!

Well here we are with tuned S13.
We went to dyno on Saturday and she made 509hp and 566nm of torq. That's on E85 with 1.7bar / 24.5psi boost. We did not push the engine more as the stock 1JZ cams are the problem here. They do not flow enough to raise the boost and it makes no sense to add boost since major changes to power is not happening. I am more than happy with this setup now! <3

Time to move on. Soarer is sold and handed over to the new owner. Luckily I knew him personally and I promise you that she got a good home from him. Still sad for having to let her go, but I have something big in my mind to replace the Soarer. You'll see what I am after next week if the car is something as promised.

Just went trough the whole build. Very very cool. I love the paint (I'm a big fan of flake, especially on motorcycles), and the current wheels are my favorite. Very cool setup and it's nice you get to build it with your dad in that cool shop. Cheers from Florida

I wish it would be.. Yeah I’ll keep it somewhat stock looking. Nothing crazy tho like cutting up the body etc.. just some simple bolt-on’s on exterior.

Congrats on the pickup. Good to get one sooner than later for those in the market. They are uncommon enough to see in Japan, I can only imagine how rare they are are in Finland

Hey guys!
Some updates. Not much, but something. I did straighten up the frontend from the S13 to around -8 degrees so it's about 50% what it used to be. I've been working on interior wiring with zero to none of motivation to that shit, but oh well. Gotta do something! I've driven the R34 daily and I've done around 6000miles on it. I still love it. Few photos for you.
