  • We did it. We finally finished the project car of my dreams. The Coyote Swapped Nissan 240SX drift car PROJECT KITANA has finally come to a close...for now. In this video we go into running my drift event Cosmic Drift, the final stages of building the 240SX coupe, and so much more. Let's get into it for our finale.

    The hardest project I’ve ever worked on. The longest video editing sessions I’ve ever done.

    No lie, I said it on a community post you did and i'll say it again here: I love this series, and I almost want you to get another project car just to create another adventurous series. Love this refreshing content, thank you so much for showing us the reality of showing us what it takes to build an epic drift coupe. :)

    David thank you for coming back to it years later, and closing the book on it. It is actually somewhat refreshing to think that this has been so long in the making that my life is entirely different to what was going on when i first watched a video featuring this car. I certainly hope this goes on to inspire people to not quit on anything really.

    David, as a participant in the car community, as a viewer of your channel. I want to extend a heartfelt thank you for allowing us to be part of this journey. I've never been so happy to see someone complete a project car. I find you to be a real inspiration to the rest of us car folk. You keep doing what you're and I'll be right here to keep tuning in and hopefully one day I'll get to join you out on the street

    Props David for promoting a respectable car scene. I grew up driving in 90's early 2000's. The car scene was awesome in my area. Now it's completely gone. But you hold these events that remind me of those times. Thank you for your work keeping it alive!

  • @CPT_Haddock__

    your 7 years project actually inspired me of working on my little dream didn't had the BASE car yet up until november last year ...I can finally start
    project Yellow Flash
    2017 BRZ Yellow Series (inazuma edition, for me in canada)
    with an engine.... that could very much take 3 to 5 years to source parts and make it fit/work... more on that eventually
    I still am at step 1 ....planning
    BUT! the passion is there and is still strong ever since that day you went to that random Paul Walker Memorial meet in that random city of St Eustache..
    signed.. a guy with his Yaris that wouldn't stop talking about it back then...

I'm glad good things come your way cause in general you are a good person and anyone would be lucky to collaborate and have you as a friend. Thanks for being such a humble and inspiring UA-camr. I hate that this build series didn't get the most views but in my opinion this was the coolest project you've ever done. You've done the unorthodox, the unthinkable and made it come to life with the help of others. Thanks for sharing this journey with us.
