Japanese engineering at its best , proof that they were and still are at the top of thier games !! Keep sending it Sam !!

Hey man, Its the ex-owner of the S15! I recently saw your other video today, and i am so thankful you found the location and recovered her. I can confirm that I was scammed when I tried to get my car shipped out. I no longer have the papers to the car, I believe they are still in the car. Another thing I wanted to say: I sense a strong connection with you and the S15, I can tell you are in love with the car, and it could provide great content for your channel in the future. So that’s exactly why I gave it to you. I knew you would be happier with it than I could. It would hurt to have to go and repair my own car that was trashed, torn apart, all the hard work gone, when someone, that someone is you, can rebuild it without anger at the sight of your hard work destroyed. I have bought a new car, my S13, which i have already started a build on. I’m so glad you managed to get it running again and I’m so grateful you saved it from its grave. Just hearing the turbo whistle again made me tear up. Thank you. Sincerely, Seth. 8:20 I can confirm these are stock cams, I had bought some to fit in but I never got to it 😬

I shed a tear when it started, congratulations

Man, this is awesome. That put a smile on my face that the car came to life. Congrats, Sam!!!! I had no doubts that you were able to bring it back to life

16:59 Brought the biggest smile to my face, thank you for bringing such a beautiful car back to life, can't wait to see this thing sideways at ebisu.

I think the shop owner stole the cams to sell off and replaced them with whatever he had lying around, that's why the cams were in such worse condition compared to everything else.

Yes, yes way! Glad to see another legend in the process of being saved. Way to go Sam!

字幕も説明もよくわかりやすく大変嬉しいです!

Those wheels are perfect for the car. Hope you plan on keeping them on it

Cars really do have souls and this one wasn't ready to die!!! I'm so happy for you Sam

SHEEEEEE LIIIIIIIVES!!!! God bless that turbo spool & the wonderful noise she makes!

This is trully an amazing thing, seeing an old car nand being able to turn it on, but that was fast... 😂 Grats sam. I loved it, you inspire me to work on cars as well, and continue to chase my dreams. Thank you from the bottom of my heart❤️

He is like tommy F-Yeah but he is happy is a understatement lol Love the content.

That thing looks really mean from the front, the wide wheels and exposed intercooler just works really well

@SAMMIT ...such a treasure -trove of jdm goodness.What an awesome S15 find!Love the Okinawa content too.Love ya work.

Dude. I’m so freakin happy for you, to have a find like this and then to have the opportunity to just throw a little elbow grease and bring it back to life is surreal. Congrats brother, I’m happy for you and I hope you bring back the rocket bunny fingers crossed 🤞🏽 haha

Dude you don't even know how lucky you are! That style is 15 is my dream car and it has been since I was a little kid. I am so in love with this car I hope one day I can go to Japan and find something like this. That would be amazing

No smoke, sounds healthy, moves under its own power… freaking awesome buddy!!!

Just watched the previous 2 videos on this last night and so glad this one came out this morning. Cant wait to see how this build goes man. Congrats

what an absolutely beautiful project car you managed to save. the S15 is definitely one of my favorite JDM cars. cant wait to see what happens with this thing in your care, TAKE GOOD CARE OF IT!

Excited to see this S15 cruising once again soon in a video!

The rocker arms really are a weak point for the engines. Like sam said the VVL head is one option but mazworx has a solution that has been working great for me for years. Each rocker has one guide, basically the mazworx kit machines the rockers to fit dual guides.

its heart touching at the beginning how it looks so sad, yet still so angry as s15 should...mad respect bois!❤️

I love everything about this video! I love the feeling of getting an old car fired up again, and finding all the parts that were put into it, I had that happen with a bunch of Mark two glis I had

THIS VIDEO WAS AWESOME!!!! This is why Japan is the holy grail when it comes to automotive, you can just find a relic such as this S15 and be the happiest guy in the world! Awesome work Sam!!! Much love from NY

It's very impressive that this car started after many years of sitting can't wait for the upcoming content with this sick S15

This is 1 reason why I'll take jdm cars over any other and why they'll remain my dream to own one. This thing was sitting in the bushes for years and you just washed it off and did some small tweaking and it's literally spitting flames as if it wasn't abandoned. Crazy

I had the absolute BIGGEST grin on my face when she started and idled! So happy for you, Brother!

So crazy how well that worked out. Usually, automotive restoration projects never go this smooth as you probably know. Badass!

Gonna be my favourite build to follow, nuts it ran after so long and sounds so fresh as well after it had ran for a little bit. Crazy stuff

Thank you that You give that Beauty an Second Chance and it even is running by itself !!

You should name it 天命 ten mei meaning destined by heaven (destiny). You saved an legend car from the harsh weathering of Okinawa and now it gets to fulfill it's destiny with all of us to enjoy. Absolutely amazing story Dr. Sammit , the SR drift doctor. Congratulations to you and your team! 🎉💕👏🏼👏🏼

So cool to see that thing come back to life and moving, great work Sam. My cousin had a late 90's Subaru Impreza that he parked out back of his dads house for I think two years, can't remember but I helped him get that thing going. All it needed was a battery and some weasel piss and it fired right up and drove like he never left it.

16:30 is my favorite part when the car turns on.He feels happy about the car turning on keep up the good work 👍

congratulations! been watching each oki clip to see the progress and i'm happy to see it at this state! i can't imagine how you were and are feeling right now

This is a hidden gem. I am so happy you are saving it from dying. And the airlift suspension is just wow

Awesome that you got it running that easy sammit can't wait to see what plans you have for this aswell as the other car projects you currently have underway 😀 👍

Awesome to see an abandoned car roar back to life like that! Flames and all!

That's awesome, what a find! Crazy you were able to get it right up and running with new cams and plugs.

Awesome video sammit glad the S15 is running nothing better than saving awesome jdm cars from just setting keep up the awesome work.👍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🇯🇵

Keep it going growing fast!!💪💪

That is awesome to see it running again, congrats!

For a young man can not fault you. Well done mate. You surprised me being so young. Start to finish. You know what your doing. Take care mate. Congrats

I'm overwhelmed by excitement Sam! I was thinking like you were this is to good to be true pinch me please! And she is such a beaut too! I can't wait to see how you give her your total makeover. Yes she is a steal. Glad you won't have to do to much work to get her to the vision you have for her. One awesome whip you acquired Sam. Str8 💯👍🏼

Damn,that was a big smile moment when it cranked over and fired up. Sounds good man. Nice find .

Can we get a “No way” counter for the next video 🤣🤣🤣 keep up the great work 😎

Super cool to see! So hyped to see that it actually runs! I really hope you keep a similar blue paint colour because it looks so clean!

So awesome you got it running can’t wait see what plans you have for it Those flames tho 24:57

Just started watching you 🔥 now I can’t stop watching 😂

放置にしては綺麗過ぎる

When she started I almost cried, beautiful sound. It's time for Initial D.

Call him...either blue boi..!! Or bluey!!! Great content Sam..!!! Keep it up..!! Happy that Blue Boi..!! Is up and running and moving too..!!! Yeeeaaahhh..!!!!!

Been waiting for this video bet this car used to look so good cause it still looks so great even without the rocket bunny kit it’s honestly a shame what’s happened to it I’d love to see it complete again

Its only been sitting for 2 years its not that crazy that it would start xD im just surprised it hasn't rusted more with that salty Okinawa air.

heck yeah, so glad the car is running, cant wait to see what you guys can do with it

Amazing, great job! You done great here. The abandoned Evo, skyline and this one are some of my favorites. Can't wait til you build an altezza

While I'm a Subie guy I do like an S15, and any JDM legend coming back to life is excellent

Shoulda titled the video: “there is no way”

Amazing find!! Having family history from Fukuoka I have soft spot for the culture, history and have always loved the cars

Sam.... There is NO WAY!!!!! LOL, I'm surprised too that it cranked up so easily. Sounds great, it washed up good too from a quick simple spray down 👍👍💯

Still suprises me how clean underneath was from your last video.

I am gobsmacked that s15 runs so well and even moves like there's no problems, mind blown and SUPER HYPE

The Mandalorian: This is the way Sammit: THERE IS NO WAY

OMG LMAO "What's an Ugaduga?" Mechanic Life for the LOLS ;p I hope you showed her the video of the Ugaduga origin. Hope this build turns out FTW!

"Another day, another Silvia!" New t-shirt design?!??!!

Wow what a come back story! Love to see this strong survivor still alive and well

love this car and seeing its progress. im so excited to see how it grows.

Bluebird S15 sounds nice! Solid catch Sam and what a way indeed to squeeze in to your vacation!

Thanks Sam your vids are awesome and they’re the only way to get distracted from war in my country, thanks a lot, good luck

Definitely Stoked for you. However the car came to you. Its not done and still wants to run. Props to you for getting it running again :)

that part when he said "No way"? i felt that.

Sounds insane man. Cant wait to see the restoration

That is badass I had a feeling with alittle love it start right up definitely stoked

I’m just Happy that Sam is NOT making this S15 a drift missle. And instead making it pretty again back to its former Glory.

Congrats!! Nice found!! Look forward to see more stories of this s15

Non stop smiling while watching this video, well done Sam.

26:48 even other car guys were happy and went to celebrate😂😂

Bro that color is sick!, its like a midnight purple but its blue that has some violet reflection!

Seeing you that happy makes me happy man ☺️, keep smashing it brother 👌🏼

this is such good content man, so happy for you

9:15 may's addition to the video really makes the difference. im serious, like the kind of off topic thing that she adds is just awesome

That thing is Sick!!And Loud as heck bruh🔥🔥🔥

Congratulations on the new car, it running and driving. I can tell the car wants to be saved and driving again.

God thats so cool i love to hear it idle and his excitement just made me alot happier

I cannot believe the car started so happily, I hope this car will be able to go anywhere on the road when its fixed up again, poor car had to stay alone and abandoned for years, I know everyone in the comments are so excited to see the set up in the future.

Loving this kind of video. Keep it coming!

So happy for you on this one. Reply to some comments :)

Love that you’re spending a couple hours on the car on vacation only to work all day and into the night! Much respect

IFWY bro honestly. This is some of the best original raw content I've ever seen! You couldn't make this stuff up!

Man when it started it brought back the core memory of when I got my Toyota Soarer running🥰

Nice work Sam💪

The shortest torque wrench thing I could find lol love it! Love the content always pumping that shit out man good job!
