Teppei Kaneko
Teppei Kaneko is a man that Salazar fears. When Salazar loses the race to Logan in Chapter 2, he scratches Teppei's car in retaliation. Teppei forces Salazar to smash up his own car to make them even. In Chapter 9, Teppei tells the crew that they will be working with Salazar to take down the Brotherhood. When you question why Salazar knows the plan and you (as well as Logan, Ximena and Toby) don't, Teppei says it is because he doesn't care if Salazar dies.

Logan
After Salazar wins Vaughn's food truck during the sideshow, Logan decides to race Salazar for it. The younger man bets Teppei's car against Salazar. If the first wins, Logan gets the food truck back. If he loses, Salazar get's Teppei's car. Playing dirty, Salazar tries to win the race by having his goons attempt to take Logan out. Unfortunately for Salazar, Logan wins. In Chapter 5, he seeks payback against Logan for what Teppei made him do to his car, and jumps him in the drive-in movie theater.

Your Character
In Chapter 9, you can decide if you want a truce with Salazar or spit in his face. In Chapter 12, if you did not help Jason, Salazar locks him, his task force, and you in the vault and releases a gas grenade. If you did help Jason, Salazar is only shown walking the casino floor and halls. In Chapter 13, if he locked you in the vault, he tells Logan that you were collateral damage before the younger man rescues you and unhinges Colt's plan.
