Porsche 944 Turbo // 20 Year Restoration Part 1
This 1986 Porsche 944 Turbo was stopped in California for almost 2 decades, then was in the woods of Pennsylvania for the last few. It was in pretty rough condition outside, inside, and under the hood.
In this new series I’ll be restoring it to its former glory plus a few extra fun bits. I want to do a custom interior and a few power upgrades then either repaint it or do a vinyl wrap. Comment any colors you have in mind! The interior is mostly black with some yellow accents already.
I had a lot of fun working on this, so hopefully y’all enjoy it! I’m going to try to upload more videos so stay tuned!

70hp Electric Go Kart build V2 // Part 3
Переглядів 74 тис.2 роки тому
I started this kart build around a year ago. I bought the frame on January 17 2021 and this is how far I have gotten till now (given that I filmed this starting 3 months ago). Its insanely fast from 0-30 probably around 2 seconds but sharply stops accelerating because of the short gearing. As of now, it is only pulling ~25Kw so new gearing will be done in the next part. This is probably going t...

I built an electric go-kart about 6 months ago and made a video about it. I always saw these videos on youtube from the 2010s and there were people using dc series-wound motors on go-karts pushing around 50kw. I wanted to do a second version of my electric go-kart with main upgrades being the power, belt drive, front brakes, and just everything is nicer. This is probably going to be a 4 part se...
Cheap Mini ITX Custom Water Cooling // $800

I Had the worst computer for a while and decided to build a new one when my friend sold me a 9600k for $115. I built an itx size just because I wanted to put it on my desk and think it looks better than any full size or atx. This is great for gaming at 1080p 180fps or 1440p 120fps. All of this and my monitors were under 1,000 dollars. Specs - i5 9600k @5Ghz @1.345v - Gigabyte Aorus Z390 mini it...

Can you tell me did you buy the electric motor, batter and the controller?
I guess part 2 never happened
Dude I’ve been trying so hard to figure out where you found the belt pulleys! And what is the gear ratio ?
Are pulleys faster then chains
Part 2?
Stupid music why music you think every 1 like music lol fool watch it your self
Electric vehicles need efficient gearbox es
music is soo annoying
Where did you get the motor?
Where did you get the axle pully and belt?
O to 30 in 1 second? BTW are those LFP or Li?
Any updates on the project?
How is it allowed to drive t on the streets what if you carash into another car which insurance pays the bill??
Where should he ride it? Most sidewalks are too small
Were do i get the motor
Electro and co has good ones
Any updates?
hey you know a place where i can learn about these things and how they work so i cant build off knowladge?
Hi, do you have a instagram that i can dm you on as would like to know more sbout this thanks
kevin.obrien44
ayyy broo how much did the frame cost and everything in the video like overall price of the finished project and how do you earn money for project because i wannas stsrt one too so bad
the frame was about 400, total maybe 1.5-2k
Car was such a health hazard my man died in the process of cleaning it 💀 Jokes aside, you good bro? Its been over a year now...
Trying to make a video about my gokart in the next few days
@@Kevin.OBrien44 That would be sick !
2 cheap car brake calipers on the back (from like a 1998 civic or GM geo metro) and one central disk brake on the front axle for an E brake/drift brake i believe would be cheap and quite doable.
that would of been a good idea if I thought of it
What’s the voltage and ah for the battery so I can buy a new battery on Amazon
why do you neeed gearing on a electric motor?
I guess this car isn’t getting restored😭
haha its a long process i guess
biuuuuutifull☠
🥸
Where did you get the battery from and how long does it last in this setup?
Thid is awesome project, and i liked it alot. Also when are you posting again?
You sir are the McGiver of go karts, very interesting use of garage tools and mad skills to just get it done. Now about that battery pac, charge controller and wiring, this all a prototype needs in concept. Love the rubber band throttle👍👍
How much Cost the Batterie Build? And how Long can you Drive with it?
That dude needs shoes lmao can’t imagine going that fast without them
How much does the engine and battery costs? And how long while the battery hold for drive it around a racetrack?
i got both used from second hand websites. about 700$ together. it lasts about 20 miles if you drive moderate and about 15 if you go hard.
thx @@Kevin.OBrien44
Hi my dad owns 3 porche 944 one of them we decided to restore
sick
Hey Kevin, I'm trying to build one of these on my own, looks like a fun project. I do have a couple questions, first, how much were those batteries, and second can I use 12v car batteries for them, and third what was the overall amount you paid for the motor, batteries, and ecu? Thanks.,
the batteries were about 200 i think. 12 is probably too low of a voltage if you want to go faster than 10 mph. probably around 600$
@@Kevin.OBrien44 I see alright, thanks man.
can you do a video on how you took apart your electric skateboard and adapted into a go kart build? cause I wanna do the exact same thing
yeah i might tough on it in a future video but the conversion only was for my first version of the kart. this video is about my second version
@Kevin.OBrien44 okay sweet looking forward to it! will be super helpful
How much did the 944 cost?
it was about 5k but all in i’m almost at 14k and just about finished it
@@Kevin.OBrien44 Nice😊, can u make an update video on how the car is looking?
@@Bazze03 yeah hopefully i can soon!
it was 5000, Ive put about 10k into it now though
Does the belt ever slip or run off track? Everytime I deal with them, they always find their way off track.
that’s why i went with one so thick. so it wouldn’t do that. i actually had it slip so i checked it and the motor bent my 1/4 in thick steel motor mount. so the belt is just fine for now
your music is on volume level 10 and your voice is volume level 1. If you make more videos please don't do that.
ok i’ll try i’ve always had that problem
What motor did you use? If you don't mind my asking...
it’s a used electric forklift motor i bought off of ebay. that’s about all the info i have on it
@Kevin.OBrien44 Thanks mate 👍
where did you get the display?
ebay
What gear ratio did you use. I’m making something similar but with 1x 8074 170kv 6000w motor not sure if it’s going to be powerful enough
That's more than enough power for a gokart like the videos. Mine is 3000w and it goes 30mph
probably will be fairly quick till about 30 mph
what controller did you use? id like to know the model name...
it’s a kelly controller 650amp 72volts. i forget the model name but it’s something like kdz72650
What was the motor name I can’t find it anywhere
I bought it used off of ebay so it doesn’t really have a brand or name tbh
this project still happening? been checking back for the past 7 months :/
sorry i’m just really bad at uploading consistently basically because i just upload when i feel like it because it’s fun and not because it’s my job. hopefully soon!
What was the motor that was used?
that is not 5kw is it
how much can i have in common with some random stranger on the internet. i found your channel through the electric go kart and now you're restoring a car i've been contemplating doing the same with. the world is a strange place
yeah it is weird. i’ve meet some people with lots of common interests. even more than just those couple you said
Imma need an update dawg
Holy 💩 that’s fast!! Geezus man this is awesome what was you’re gear ratio? Also what was top speed?
the gear ratio was about 3:1 but with top speed of only 42. then i geared it 1.5:1 and that was perfect for top of 65ish mph
That end product looks really fun, I just wish I knew what you were doing when you built it.
i finally cane down to see ur Custom water cooling set up, it's very nice i could not pull something like this off😁 you askto come in check out UR YT Ch, we where discussing OC'ing so yeah man really digging UR Custom PC.
thanks man! still using it to this day
