He's got the spirit and not to forget, the correct woman. He decided correctly when he moved to Japan and with his dream and met May. Maybe I don't know enough about this love story, but I think it also belongs to his history. I would love to here more about this, if you like to. Not a must, just a plus ;) I follow your channel for a few years now (frequently) and I just start to put the puzzles together. I guess these rare and awesome cars, driving, drifting and building these things are in first priority of your channel, but I would also appreciate the story behind the scenes. I'm not finding the right words at the moment, but I think you all know what I mean. A story about May and the history of you two maybe would be nice for some videos. Also some more about yourself, May's family and Yashio Factory's history would be and idea. Cheers from Germany. Tristan ;)
@@tristanrs1398 He did a video about why he came to Japan where he explains a lot of things. I'm pretty sure he met his wife through a church group when traveling to japan where they became friends and eventually became a couple.

Separation is in the preparation...my Brother 42 years ago built his straight six in his '63 Biscayne for the first time! I got to help and it was a great experience...my Dad checked the work, but it was a stout build for the time and it had a decent body from a stellar platform in those 2 dr, '63 Chevys...
Every time I see an engine building video, I think about the engineers who designed the engine and all the math and calculations they had to do to get it right.
I just can’t get over how much okachan seems like a father to Sam he pretty much does everything with him like if Sam was his own son. This is why okachan is my role model
not sure if okachan knows about the “dual guide” mod. Its where you grind a lil bit of the rocker arm that sits on the flat shim side to allow for another guided shim so each rocker arm now uses 2x guide instead of the flawed factory design of 1x guide shim + 1x flat shim. This should give a little more aid in keeping a shim from getting spit and a rocker arm from coming off until the owner decides to shell out the $$$ and put a VE vvl head on and just totally eliminate the rocker arm issue. So anyway to any readers seeing this, just make note to use a same size guided shim that would be replacing the flat shim that you are changing out and, this is so you will retain your lash. Have a good one and enjoy your rwd sr20s 👌👌👌
Okachan is such a great humble man love it everytime he makes a appearance in videos. And the fact that he's always down to help sammit in any situation. Keep up all the great content.
realy infomative video for who is going to build a engine for the 1st time ... and for me wacthing this is realy remind me alot of things about to rebuild the proper engine 👍🏻
congrats ! first engine build is so nerve racking and exciting at the same time, it’s a different feeling. really good video and looking forward to more content !
A VE head would have been a nice touch no need to worry about those rocker arms popping off then. Seriously reminded me of the time I blew my sr16ve N1 engine and rebuilt it as an sr20ve. Excellent work.
My favorite videos on your channel! More Okachan content please! Also, I was always under the impression that the oil pump cover had to be milled down with the head whenever putting on a new one cover, so that the headgasket sits perfectly flat against both the cover and the block.
After you torque bolts use a paint pen to mark the bolts. Then if you really need to know take pics of all the paint marks that you've done. So later you won't be guessing if you remembered to torque something.
Sam you’re the reason I want to get into drifting and wanting to get into cars. Don’t get me wrong it always interests me my whole life but you’re the reason I’m actually gonna do it
Ive been using the DTI (micrometer) to set up workpieces in lathes at my college and im fairly sure the scale is 0.1 of a mm but its shown on the dial as (10) so the readings you had were out by 0.01 as you had 0.41 and 0.40
its interesting watching him meticulously assemble this when I've seen so many videos of people putting connecting rods in a k20 and sending it to 600 hp
Great video, Sam what an exciting video to watch you assemble your first engine at Yoshio Factory. Loved it, I happily watched every single second! Arigato! Joshy San.
something just relaxing watching an engine come together. I did most of this to my SR in 07/08 and really brought back some great memories just jamming the in the garage. thankfully, I have never jacked my Greddy oil pan in the 14 years years or so. but now that i have said that, i will... F me... LOL Never heard that about the ARP studds. I'm been running them the whole time and running between 14-20 psi daily no prob with a 2871r. BUT I DID the same thing with the studs. LOL we all do it the first time!!! :) I may have a nissan SR shim service plate from a Dealer i found some where.... :) the next most critical thing is getting the damn CAS gear lined up properly.... GOD I CAN NOT STRESS IT ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!!get the gears lined up right!!!!!!! this is motivating me to pull my SR again and so some maintenance. it and the engine bay just need a good cleaning and some wire management. also plan to do a Silvia front swap that i've had the pieces for, like 10 years now.
all arp headstuds are not the same. the arp will bottom out on the last thread of the stud to the last thread of the bore putting the pressure on the thread, the bullnose type stud bottoms out on the rounded tip of the bottom of the bore, which is better.
it’s a good day when he uploads
Agreed
I love to watch car builds
He upload everyday
@@sam915 not atm
Totally.......JDM with a Aussie twist
Love Okachan's money sign at the end 😂🤑
Ya that was pretty cool seeing it from the bottom up being built. That was one relaxing and rather quick 28 minute video.
Sammit is the future of Yashio factory

Dude, your videos are getting better and better. Max respect from down under. Aussies do it best.
For the micrometer or DTI every 10th on the scale is 0.1mm
Soooooooooo pumped. Congratulations Sam. You’ve seriously come sooo far
hardout!

13:06 is SUPER satisfying
I missed these long video's. Even if they take 3 hours, i will still watch them completely.
same bro
i like how the soft hammer sound changes when the piston bottom out
Okachan is literally one of the best guys ive never met. What a guy!!
Man I got chills when he put on that beautiful valve cover to top it all off, cherry on top 😍!
Watching Sam build the engine is like asmr for some reason
that table is at your knees damn
Okachan is such a great humble man love it everytime he makes a appearance in videos. And the fact that he's always down to help sammit in any situation. Keep up all the great content.
High respect to you and to all engine builders!
Love it have my exam today thought of a bit of break from revision u really relax a person with tht way of showing jdm culture keep it up pal
Well done Sam. Thanks to Okachan 👊🙏🇦🇺🇯🇵
Yup torque by degree is an odd feeling my first Mitsubishi gave me that feeling when I did the head gaskets
realy infomative video for who is going to build a engine for the 1st time ... and for me wacthing this is realy remind me alot of things about to rebuild the proper engine 👍🏻
Those lights inside Yashio factory made a HUGE DIFFRERENCE!! Looks great :)
Love seeing the excitement Sam. Appreciate you and all your work.
Congrats on your first build Sammit!
Under Yashio Factory's wing like Sanford and Son, i'd expect no less; u got the connect
Dude. One of my favorite videos. !!!! Love the time lapse of building the engine.
It’s awesome to watch OG engine builders man 👌
Okachan clearly has alot pf great knowledge, skill and tools to build engines correctly. This is why experts with experience are AMAZING 🤗🤩🤗😎
Congratulations on the 1st build 👍🏼💯☝🏻
I can’t wait to hear Gate from that bad boi. Good job Sam, you’re doing awesome!
congrats ! first engine build is so nerve racking and exciting at the same time, it’s a different feeling. really good video and looking forward to more content !

you are so lucky Sam to have such a great teacher as Okachan
Okamura San is a damn funny guy and is a very nice man, period. Oh and a Barbeque lover too !!!
Another awesome upload ...thank you for sharing your journey.
Now you have come far well done. This video was a very good one.
watching this was so therapeutic.
great job buddy i realy enjoyed watching this video
Nice and clean good job Sammit

Can't wait for the spicier sutututu
I can't wait to see your first comp with that fresh HKS SR

Sam you’re the reason I want to get into drifting and wanting to get into cars. Don’t get me wrong it always interests me my whole life but you’re the reason I’m actually gonna do it
Can't wait to hear that beauty
Even after all these years, Okachan still scares me🥲😂💔
I love the videos when your driving around japan. I miss it there:(
Yashio factory for the win!!!!
lol 2:45 that reaction time oka-chan. You just playing lol. You funny guy!
Man it's nice that she's good for big power now.
You had to do dual guide shim conversion. It disable that the rocker arms can get out of place
Probly most exited about the first Sutututututu when this is all done
I’ve seen that hotrod in yashio factory for ages , what is it ? Or what was it used in or something? I just need a backstory or something of it
Ive been using the DTI (micrometer) to set up workpieces in lathes at my college and im fairly sure the scale is 0.1 of a mm but its shown on the dial as (10) so the readings you had were out by 0.01 as you had 0.41 and 0.40
Nice work. Balanced and blueprinted. This will be one snappy motor with crisp throttle response.
Yeah Sammit! You got more patience than me to tackle that👊
I can't wait to hear you start it for the first time
Congratulations for the 400000!let's go the first mil! Keep up the nice contents! Many greetings from Greece!
Excellent job. 😊
Better than therapy. Thanks Sammit!
its interesting watching him meticulously assemble this when I've seen so many videos of people putting connecting rods in a k20 and sending it to 600 hp
you know you gotta drive even harder now 😌😌
Tell Okachan not to undo with a torque wrench 5:01
That was a brilliant video, what these videos should all be about.
NOW THE FUN PART , TESTING
Great job Sam!! You should be proud!!
so nice to have someone la okachan as a mentor !
Miata engine: "Am I a joke to you?"
Was thinking the same
He mentions the Miata engine at the end
The Miata engine was partially built by Adam's shop.
Hell yeah brother
more engine builds!!! love them
Okachans payment could be written off I reckon 🤙🏽
Awesome rebuild, cant wait for it's first start.
A sr20 passionate lover, like me
A few of my friends have had those sr20’s in the old se-r Sentra with a snail on em they get down and are great motors 🤘
Great video, Sam what an exciting video to watch you assemble your first engine at Yoshio Factory. Loved it, I happily watched every single second! Arigato! Joshy San.
congratulations and best luck with the new setup engine
I was really hoping you would solve the girdle kangaroo mystery in this vid.
Piston rings assembly missing!!!😫 For the rest of the video, perfect👌🏼
Good shit keep it up bro
Hope you had the complete ROTATING ASSEMBLY BALANCE. It make the difference in a strong lasting engine of a 10k mile it got for knock engine

great job, Sammit! I would also take 50 yakiniku dinners over money.
Great vid!
Great video!
Took off from Oki to QLD. Hopefully I get to see some cars out here. Keep killing the videos.
So excited for this!

You got yourself a good sensei!
Excited on how much power the Silvia is going to push good job sammit keep up the good content ✌👍😎😎
must be patient guys to see the drift again xD
I love how your sharing the knowledge! Can't wait to build my sr20det too!
Next video first start of the engine let’s go
