  • For the Twin Turbo Subaru EZ30 Swapped Porsche, I've got to stop! Today's show was about getting my Wilwood Pedals installed, but I had to hit a few steps prior to getting to them. Custom car fabrication takes a long time!
    In this video, we'll take you through the process of installing twin turbo on a Subaru EZ30 and swapping it into a Porsche. This project definitely took longer than we expected, but the end result is worth it! Watch as we tackle the challenges and share our tips and tricks for a successful Porsche Swap.

    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.

    Coming along nicely Mike!!! I'd weld a thicker strengthener plate on the left of the pedal box just like VW and Porsche would have done to spread the load of the pedals being used. The motion of the pedals is likely to fatigue the thin sheet steel of the floor.

    • @rennch.
      @rennch.  5 місяців тому

      Well, it's bolted to a 1/8 inch steel plate so I feel like that will do a good load spread.

    monumental episode, great progress, all your touch surfaces, pedals and seats, it's like a real car. The thing about the AN lines, I'm glad you eliminated the extra fittings at the bulkhead, but those are never under pressure, just gravity fed.
    And, those seats, very sweet. I bought some cheap, generic slip on covers so I wouldn't get mine filthy when rennching. I just wish my mechanic in Socal would stop putting greasy wrenches on my uncovered passenger seat.

    Hey Mike at 3.53 when you are assembling the seat, on the box it says “Passenger side”, when you place it in the car the adjustment knobs are in the centre of the car, most seat controls seem to be fitted facing the outside ie the respective door…… not sure if it’s an issue or oversight 🤷🏼

    • @rennch.
      @rennch.  5 місяців тому +1

      Just a bit of movie magic there. The
      seat you see in the car is the driver side, and I never brought the passenger side in.
