This is a Porsche 911 restoration that was abandoned in 1994 after being converted to a race car. My plan is a twin turbo Subaru EZ30 porsche engine swap with 400+ HP to the wheels. Stay tuned.
Dude! I got super emotional watching that engine fire up. I'm so happy for you. High Five!
YO! Thanks Rodney.
This episode was a ~37 minute roller coaster with nothing coming easy, so all the sweeter when it all came together. So cool to feel like part of this. We saw the troubleshooting for the cam sensor and settings review but not what got 'ya to realizing the lack of crank sensor so quickly. Look forward to seeing it head'n down the road soon!
yea...I had to cut some stuff to keep the show semi -reasonable.
Congratulations mate. That is a huge milestone, and a great step towards it moving around under it's own steam.
Bro, I don't know how you guys run your engines in Australia, but these engines are run on petrol (gasoline) here. Not "steam".
@@rennch. Haha, we are still REAL old school down here :D
Sounds absolutely phenomenal. This was an amazing effort and a great episode.
Thanks man! I left it intentionally long so everybody could experience some of the same tension we had.
Very cool to see all the hard work paying off and the beast come to life michael!! 💪🏼😎 sounds amazing and idling so smooth already before any tuning. 👌
Yes it does!
Right on - congratulations! I hope you also document and share the Haltech calibration experience. Curious as to how much of the tuning is canned and how much you have to do from scratch.
Will do!
Congratulations from Australia. I was literally on the edge of my seat waiting / hoping to hear it start. Very exciting.
Good! That was the intention.
Yeah that sounds incredible, insane levels of dedication, congratulations!
Thanks a ton!
Congratulations. I look forward to seeing it at SEMA again next year and hearing it run.
Best build on youtube right now hands down. Favourite car matches with my favourite engine 😍
Wow, thanks! I appreciate that!!
Your face the first time you revved it!! Realising you have created a beast. Priceless. Fantastic job Mike. Thumbs up from Luxembourg 🇱🇺
Give yourself a massive pat on the back,sounds so sweet.
Can't wait to hear you redline it!!
Keep up the awesome work!
I’ve been with you since episode 1 and this is one of the greatest moments That motor that’s seen rolling around the floor in the intro is installed, running and sounds awesome. Congrats, the hard work is paying off!
Thanks homie.
I came to your channel through Jay Jarvie’s Builder Creator channel and his video on the rear deck/scoop he is building for you. Glad I checked out your channel, I’m a Porsche guy, and while I like them original I think it’s great that you found a way to get this old 911 back on the road, even if that road will be a track. I’m all for doing whatever it takes to keep these beautiful cars alive, and sometimes 100% pure may not be the answer. If you don’t mind a suggestion, I love the color you chose it looks awesome. Consider painting your wheels in a Macintosh apple red, I know it sounds crazy but I once saw an early 911 resto-mod in a similar green to yours, the guy painted the wheels in red and it looked amazing I know this sounds crazy but pick up a Macintosh apple and look at the reds and greens in the apple, it will make sense when you see it, Mother Nature has a way of getting it right when it comes to colors. Good luck with your build and I can’t wait to see the first track video.
Thanks man. I’m not sure how much track time it will see, but I appreciate the input!
Well done mate been following build from here in Portugal...
Incredible! I've watched the part at around 32:00 like ten times already. My EZ30R is sitting next to my 914 waiting for a moment like this. Poor Ben didn't know what was coming for him!
I’m a big fan of the 3.0 Subaru engine I had my dad wagon with that motor for 5 years and I loved it
If haltech wasn’t a sponsor before the better be now! Convinced me to get one for my build.
You definitely should!
So freakin’ awesome. Felt the sheer joy coming through. Keep it up!
Thanks so much!!
Been watching the channel since the start. So good to hear her growl!! What a sound! So cool Mike!
Thanks!
Hell yeah! that's a friggin beast awaiting release..Congrats High Five!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks Mark!
I was jumping up and down when it started! Awesome!!!
you and me both. :)
Awe Man. So darn happy for you. That sounds great! Congratulations!
Thanks homie!
Mike Congratulations!
Absolutely Fantastic work and your car looks and sounds so awesome!
That means a lot coming from the GOAT of early 911 assembly!
The lean mean green machine is alive!!!😃👍Congrats!👏👏👏
yessir!
Bro so excited for you. It sounds killer!
Congratulations, that was frickin awesome!
IT'S ALIVE .... awesome sound
Yea it's awesome.
That is so exciting!!! I have the same motor that I am putting in a 914. Congrats on getting it running. It is the happiest day when you here the motor start for the first time. Keep the content coming.
going to scream in a 914!
Now this is awesome. Been wanting to do a build myself but, I wanna do something not everyone and their neighbors have done. Early Boxster w Subaru EG33 or the EZ30 was what I was thinking about, I imagine it'd be easier to fit instead of something like an LY7 3.6/VQ37de or even an LSX. With early Boxsters being dirt cheap cuz of the crap engine, makes it a cheaper, easier way to have a mid-engine performance car. Esp add in a pair of EFR7163's or GTX3076's or Single EFR 7384/GTX4088 or 4294, and it'd be a hell of a party that'll embarrass those $100+k cars.
Man!!! This just made my day. I’ve had a shitty day…this made me smile. 😬
Me too! Thanks man.
It's Alive! Kudos to Haltech support. that engine sounds fantastic, can't wait until it's tuned and dynoed and running on the street.
going to be a beast.
what a milestone! So stoked for you!
I'm also so stoked for me. :)
This is going to be amazing. Good job keep it up
Thanks brudda.
Love the sound of that engine! I keep wincing watching you guys work around that beautiful paint with no protection on it.
Livin' on the edge.
I forgot to mention how great it sounds. Really fantastic.
I have no idea why Michael only has 28k in subs. Insanely low for such a great channel!
I have not been blessed by the algorithm love just yet.
@@rennch. Michael - we have stuck with you, sending tidbits, referrals and the like.
And now here you are, ready to dial in the fun stuff.
What a ride. and CONGRATS for making it here - so many in a garage don't
Nice work!! Over the hump. Best build on UA-cam. Way to go Michael
I mean...that's crazy to hear. Thank you.
Haltech is one of the only ECUs that will run all the valvetrain stuff on these. Good choice.
Yea it's the shiz.
Excellent, tear in the eye moment.
100%
NICE! Congrats Michael.
Thanks!
What a beautiful build and now with sound!!! Congrats....
Mike what a milestone for you and us passengers who are with you every mile. It's soooo awesome to hear that beast. Congratulations and, as usual, she's the muts nutz!!!!
Yea it's a big one!
I love @26:26 your assistant tech, Ben, comes flying around the drivers door to take a look at the color of the exhaust. Ben knows Subaru.
Congratulations on the first fire!
Hey Haltech - Nick deserves a trip to SEMA 2023…
ABSOLUTELY he does.
Wow it really does sound sick! Congrats
Congratulations! This moment, together with when you receive the body painted, I think is the best moments of a build. So no need to say I have enjoyed it too, the whole build. Keep going, it sounds great!
Couldn't agree more!
Congratulations! Now the fun begins
yes sir.
Congrats on the first start! What a journey it has been...
Sounds Soooo good!
Nice job!!!!
Glad you like it!
What a beast!!! Great job,,,, I think I saw a tear when she fired up. Let everyone know when you will show her at a So Cal event!!! 🎉
It's coming Scott!
I just cranked through a ton of these videos - I have a newborn so I’ve been stuck watching UA-cam.
Question on the haltech - does it use the Subaru stock cold start settings? This is always the hardest thing to get right on a standalone ECU. Does it seem like it will be daily drive able with that haltech?
After a little bit of practice I find it much faster to grind tungstens on bench grinder by twisting them in fingers instead of using drill.
I got a giant smile on my face right now!!!! Congrats!!!!
so glad you dug it.
F….ing awesome sound. Happy for you ! 🏁 Best wishes from Oslo, Norway.
Thank you Rolfe!
I dont usually like engine swaps...but this.... This is the exception. 👏🏻
Glad you like it!
Paul is a star
I am so excited - can't imagine how excited you are!!! You are a legend!
Thanks man!
The excitement mounts
Someone is making use of the word calendar they got for Christmas lol Great episode!
I'm not sure I understand?
Made up for you, Michael! You (and Paul) did it! Great job. High 🖐🏾 from the UK.
Thank you kindly!
Dude! Congrats! That's so awesome!
preeshed Jay.
woooo the turbos sound good
Good job a lot of persistence, Congratulations
Thanks pal. Thanks for following along too.
What an awesome episode, been following you since the very beginning, man what an achievement! You did it! Congratulations
Sounds fantastic, so happy for you.
Much appreciated.
Congrats! Thats a huge milestone!
yea man.
Worth the wait from day one on your build. That sounds amazing.
Much appreciated Steve.
I want to quit my bank job and start as an intern to work with you! Amazing job!💪💪💪
You know that's right it's nice to drive a old Subaru with a big boy and it keep up with the GT3.
Wow! So worth the wait! I loved the "disappointment interlude"- seriously made me LOL. Also- Ben's high five was epically faked! Also loved watching Ben's shock when it started the first couple of times for 2 seconds- Love Ben. That sounds awesome and congratulations! The rest is going to be so fun to watch you create now that it actually runs. This is the PERFECT swap motor for this car- and I say that as a guy that builds Porsche motors all day long. You da man!
That's cool man. The Ben high five made me laugh as I edited it. :). What Porsche motors do you build?
@@rennch. We build all years of air-cooled Porsches- from the 356's to the final 993's. Just wrapped up a 3.6 Turbo motor- about to start a 3.6 from a 964 Speedster- and doing a re-seal on a 3.3 Turbo this week. Had two 356's and two 912's last month- so - all of them ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ . I'm "apprenticing" at a local well-known shop and loving it. What used to be a terrible mystery is now just layers of learning ;-)
Question: 1) How was the overall fitment size wise?
Wow! that's awesome, well done!!!
wow - it sounds brilliant. loving the detail you put into the whole build up to it and setting up the Haltech.
thanks sam.
Think we all felt that one with you!! Awesome work! There happy tears I swear….😅
yea that's why I left it a bit long. Thanks.
So Great to see...so happy for you
Congratulations on starting your engine!
I am very happy too!
And... I was impressed by the very, very good sound! !
You've overcome another obstacle!
I want to see you running soon.
Thank you for your hard work.
From far away Japan...Hama.
I want to visit Japan someday!
God that thing sounds absolutely amazing! Genuinely was not expecting that from a Subaru engine, but my god was it glorious!
I had a feeling...
Congrats dude! You've just crested the hill now man! Regards from Ireland as always.
Thank you fellow countryman. :P
Congratulations. I've been waiting to see how you fared with the ez30d 2nd generation (i.e. ez30r). I contacted you about a year ago about my intention of putting one in my 914. After texting the guys at Mighty Car Modes, I've decided to go with the ez36 after seeing their success with Super Gramps. The only thing holding me back from committing to my build was your success with the 911. In the interim, I committed to welding up a chassis for a local racer in exchange for his help on my build. We should be finished with his car in a few months and I'll be free to begin my project. I'll be in touch . Again, my sincere congratulations. You must feel on top of the world. Cheers.
I would still go EZ30r because of availability of parts.
Thank you for your suggestion
Congratulations buddy!!!
Thanks!!
Sounds great what a milestone from wales uk
Dog runs away "That's not supposed make noises"
That sounds fantastic. Congrats on all the hard work paying off!
What an amazing sound! So nice to see you happy and succesfull.
Thanks!
SWEEEEET sweet noises, can't wait for the first spin out 😎👌
light 'em up.
Bad ass…super stoked for ya
Thanks bro!
Dude!!!!! This is so exciting!
yea man.
Kudos to you! Strong work sir👍
Thank you kindly
So happy for you man!
Appreciate it.
Holy smokes! What a journey! That was so exciting to see it start and it sounds totally vicious! 😎👍💪
Sounds Awesome, I have one of those EZ30’s looking for something to put it in 😁😁
any porsche!
Congratulations. What a reward after all that hard work.
Thank you!
Wow best video you have ever done! So awesome to see everything come together and it is RUNNING!
Mike, I'm so happy to hear you say that! Thanks man.
the same thing happen to me.The fuel pump would prime then turn off .
Phuck it!! 3 years in the making!! Keep pushing!!!!
so rad.
My ej20t in the Vw beetle had cam and crank angle sensors round the wrong way and then the wires were too thick and it was not registering the pulse from the sensor. Congrats on your build brother!
trials and tribulations...thank you.
Well done mate, what a milestone! Clearly the baseline tune was good for the Subaru motor. It settled into an idle very easily. Surprised the motor didn't have the trigger wheel already installed when you bought it. Can't wait to see what comes next!
you and me both. lol.
Happy moments!After all this work!
Thanks man!
Congrats👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻beautiful sound👌🏻
@32:34 Ben is not a dog. He is in fact a scaredy-cat 😁
Total wimp!
