GTR converting my Datsun Sunny pickup… in just 7 DAYS!
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
The Datsun Sunny Pickup might be the coolest JDM car that is still cheap to buy. Adam lost his MX5 in the fire and wanted to build a Datsun that was different to the rest, and we think he achieved that! Custom wheels, GTR front end and Lamborghini suspension, yeah.. it's pretty wild! Let us know that you think of the old Nissan Sunny Ute in the comments guys!

Absolutely love how you guys doubled down after the absolute worst case scenario and are going even more wild now than even when you had the studio. Don’t stress on it, it’ll definitely pay off.
Definitely has to be an mx5 engine or a 13b

Rotary for sure, their reliability gets a bad rep but that's from people cramming a ton of boost through stock motors then beating the hell out of em because they take it. For a bit. But an inspected and rebuilt stock 13b REW running ~15 psi will make 300 whp all day and last years, make all the right noises, and generally be cool as all hell. I feel like it's the only choice that's wild enough to match the energy of this incredible bodywork.

MX-5 engine for sure. It’d be an amazing homage to the MX-5
A bridgeport 13B would be sick , the brap² sound coming from a hako truck , you cannot beat that
Hands down one of the cleanest Datsun Sunny ive seen

That thing is so frickin cool, absolutely incredible ensemble kit
seeing driftgames escalating stuff so quickly just amazes me and i love that, keep it up guys!
‘Shut up for two seconds and turn around’ 😂😂😂
1st of all,, yes!! Please use the Mx5 engine . Keep that memory alive. The way I see it. You guys did not lose a thing, you guys gained new hopes and dream from a fresh restart. 2nd, you did not do a good job, you did an outstanding job. I consider you guys & everyone your involved with the best at craft & it shows entirely through your builds. My dreams are living through you guys. Thank you for the wonderful content.
When there was talks of this getting a kit I was hoping it would be the hakotora kit. It's one of my favourite jdm cars and I'm extremely jealous.
literally proving "we will never give up" each and every day and what a comeback it has been so far. so stoked for the Drift Games future lets freakin gooooo!
A Datsun L16 or L20 with twin side draft carbs would go so good in this thing, everyone does sr or rotary builds, doing something old school in an old school car would be a good change from the normal!
More Adam on videos going forward. What a cracking dude.

This is by far my favorite Datsun pickup ever built. Beautiful 😍😍
The truck is SICK!!! Definitely needs a turbo on whatever motor you do! To have a GTR front end it has to rev high and shoot flames!!! 🔥🔥
You can use S13 for the complete front end. The LCA's fit you just drill out the hole in the cross member to put a larger bolt. Then use the the S13 knuckle to fit the strut. For the steering if you use the original steering set up you need 2x right hand inner tie rod ends then flip the the thread section on the left hand side threaded link around a use S14 rack ends ( only S14 have M14 threaded ends ) then you use a adjustable castor rod with treaded bar in the front removing the rose joint to fit in the original mounting. You gain around 25mm front track when completed. 👍

Let’s go boys 😍 was hoping you would do this conversion since the reveal. But didn’t expect it this soon
It's so freaking SICK!!! Out of the ashes the BEAUTIFUL DATSON rises. Congrats
So beautiful. It’s a masterpiece. I thought I heard R34 front, got worried, then realized, oh no it wasn’t modern. It stayed true to the roots of the design. Very well done to all that touched it.
Hakotora swaps are sick! I fully agree on the mx5 engine swap idea. There's always a rusty nb/6speed waiting around to be a donor. The engines are light, the box feels good. Everything is cheap and easy to replace. 👌
Ohhh yesss the update we’ve been waiting for! ❤
Hell yeah Brother, team work, that is bad ass!
You've got skills, keep honing them
Make an RB fit in there !!
That's one of the cleanest tastefully done Sunny's I've seen. You guys knocked it out of the park even with such a short turn around time.
Those wheels and tires are fyre! The people that are helping you are mint! So awesome.
That Datsun looks simply stunning!!! The only thing i would change is the exhaust tip 😉
Well done, I agree it is an upgrade. That GTR front is sic and love the look of those back wheels and the tray. Welcome back, hard work always pays off.
Man... I've been dying to see this truck again!! 😁
I would have to see side-by-side pictures to spot the changes because the change is so complete and smoothly realized! On the surface, I would think an MX-5 engine would be borrowing trouble but I can see how it would help tell the story of the rise from the ashes.
It's beautiful. Great job on the looks department, and can't wait to see the repowered engine bay next!
Love how the Datsun is coming long. Putting an mx5 engine would be awesome to see as a tribute to the mx5!!
Absolutely outstanding.
Turned out AMAZING! That's definitely my Dream Ride right there!! Wow!! 😁You guys Nailed it!!
Looks amazing , great job can’t wait for more 🇳🇿
That Sunny is going steal some hearts. Well done boys!
The transformation on this truck is unreal. So happy for you after the loss of the mx5 ❤
All that work and the stickers are still on the tire... 🤣 On a serious note, that thing is awesome! So cool. Great work!
Maaaaan that truck looks cool. I thought it was sick when it was first revealed on the channel but definitely next level now. Can't wait to see what the future holds for the Sunny!!!
As much as I'd love to see this beauty with 13B or 20B, the MX5 engine replica is much better choice by me for sentimental reasons. Keep it up guys!!
Drift games forever ❤🎉
DOPE!!!!!! Glad you have piece of Lambo on the Sonny.
The Hakosuka is literally my dream car so this build just makes my heart so happy! Absolutely gorgeous machine!!
The car looks mint. Love what you’ve done to it & the nod to the old cars. Can’t wait to see what happens next with it 👀
Looks killer! Love that front end conversion! Watching from the USA!
Team Hakotoooora !!! Yes! Sweeeeeet Adam!! nicely done.Hope you can get some of those carbon stuff we were chatting about....Continuing on my build next week.....Mx5 engine yes please
Absolutely love the Truck looks so good 🤙 Drift Games is coming back with some great builds to come can’t wait
ADAM put a rotary in it mate!!! Proper job ❤❤
WOW Loving this pickup build.. Top Marks Adam.. Perfection!! 🙌🙌💪💪
Uummm...yeah, that body kit...looks so good! Damn, yo. For real, the car looks dope AF.
Love this kit. I really love it with a paint matched cab on the back, but the TuffTyle looks really good. Can’t wait to see it when Adam puts the finishing touches on it.
Dude from one Adam to another. Go with what you had in the mx5. I think the feeling and almost biter sweet nostalgia will be unmatched.
13b!!!! And those wheels look SOOOOO Good!!! WOW!
That looks soooo rad. The front end skyline... epic what ever engine. Make sure it sssssssshhhhhhh do do doo
Fair play Adam that looks class. The Strom wheels look savage.
An absolute inspiration, the passion involved in this is next level. Cannot wait to see this yoke finished.
Definitely sr20! What a gorgeous truck

So great to see Adams enthusiasm back. Trucks amazing. Congrats man.
Very tasteful changes, looks Great!
Ho Lee Phak... What a badass Datsun and the greatest i`ve seen. Frontswap looks so freakin amazing, tuff title is such a great idea and the overall pakage is way more then beyond incredible. I could understand, if you`ll swap to Miata engine, but wouldn`t it be way cooler just going completely crazy, investing the same amount of work in an engine you always wanted, but never had. You`re Miata will be lifetime memorie for sure, so full flat out insanity. ;)
Adam you definitely deserve the Datsun and have definitely made it more personal to your liking and have inspired me to think outside the box with my personal car build
Awesome job! Really cool.
Absolutely stunning work .
Absolutely stunning looking Ute Mate! Them tough tiles are over the top. But those WHEELS...... 😍😍😍😍😍
That Datsun look fire!🔥 nice work!
Damn, that thing looks sick!
Been looking forward to this... Few road trips needed this year if you ever get a chance from the schedule.Would love to see you all out and enjoying the new cars. Not sure about all the vents on the front but the old skyline look is class. Main thing is Adam likes it and TBF, it looks nuts all done GTR looks, any way to stuff an RB in there 😂and have those sounds? If not an RB, then rotary or something high revving and loads of intake noises. Again, whatever makes you happiest.
13B 3 rotor or a nicely tuned twin turbo dual rotor, you got the best of both worlds. Nissan and Mazda. Light and easy to work on. Plus the sound and the look ( insert drool )
I love these old Datsun Sunny pickups. Adam you’ve built the perfect one in my opinion
Damn... The Datsun looks awesome!!! Nice work guys!
That thing is sick, I would like to see a 13b in it!
28:47 the truck is amazing, but there is one thing i would change, the headlight, i would go for black headlights with only a chrome ring, soo that the black lights fits the black front grill, kinda like old timer dodge muscle, sorry for my basic english
Buzzing for you Adam it looks insane 🔥👌
13B for sure! It's looking great so far.
Great job so far on the Datsun, can't wait to see more.
That's so awesome and sick,love your builds!
This super cool Adam, congrats on the build.
What a beautiful truck... Well apart from the exhaust looks like you gave Rosie Jones a welder to play with. 😮
I absolutely LOVE how it turned out. Can't wait to see what you have planned next for this little truck! Gonna be following it close as I'm really excited to see what you do with it! Cheers
Got to be one of the best ever built. What an absolute cool looking car. Mx5 engine and the bay tidied up will make it top level. Nice work lads 🤘🤘
keep up the good work looks awesome.
