On this episode of Mighty Car Mods, the team delves deep into the restoration of the Gemini Coupe, a classic gem from Japan. They tackle the nitty-gritty details, such as reviving the heater boxes and refoaming them to ensure optimal performance. With a keen eye for authenticity, they work on the wiring, swap out the throttle pedal for a Subaru Liberty one, and meticulously trim the interior to perfection. The dedication to preserving the car's original charm is evident in every meticulous step they take.

As the restoration progresses, the team expertly refits the glass with new seals and meticulously installs the rear tower lights and surrounds. The front of the car sees significant advancements, including fitting the intercooler and intake manifold with precision. The focus on details shines through as they work on the fuel system, opting for a custom-made fuel tank to meet high-pressure fuel requirements. The commitment to excellence and performance is palpable in every decision made.

With the introduction of the htech Nexus R3 for engine control and the pd16 for power distribution, the team showcases their technical prowess and dedication to enhancing the car's performance. Collaborating with a friend, D, they plan the integration of sensors, ignition upgrades, and boost control to ensure the engine's vitality. The meticulous attention to detail and pursuit of perfection are evident in every aspect of the restoration, showcasing a true passion for automotive craftsmanship and excellence.
