Great meeting you Nick ! I love this project and concept. Take a great car and insert the best motor.
Thanks John! - Really great to meet you too.
@@tuningbynick You too Nick. 👍🏻
When Speed Academy said “K-Swap the world!” some tuners and mechanics took it literally 😂👍
💪💪
I LOVE seeing honda engines in porsches. Iv wanted a k swapped boxter for years.
Awesome car guys, fantastic work!
I’m obsessed with this project !!! Hopefully can join the porche K swap team one day !!!
Reliable engine and beautiful car you getting the best of both
Nick great to meet you. Car sounds so amazing!
Loved that this car is getting noticed more .
I am so glad you took this vacation. Looked like you two had a blast. Time with Brent and Kyle too. 911 Kswap is a winner at car shows too.
Beautiful car. New sub and fellow Canadian. Found you through the Boostedboi's video. I'm looking forward to watch this car progress. Cheers!
Wow.. happy you went to LeMullet/FL. Seem such a fun and great event to be at. It awesome to see you meet other UA-camrs that I watch. Such a small world. Cool that so many these event bring builder/racing/etc.
I saw your car on a recent LHT Performance video. I was hoping HondaPro Jason would cover it too and perhaps find more content on UA-cam. Your video found me first thanks to UA-cam algorithm. I look forward to seeing more. Subscribed.
Just the fact you made it to Florida and did meet the boostedboiz will get you more view and now a project between you and Kyle would be awesome !!! he really need's one !!!!
Really loving this build! Makes me want a turbo K series at some point. I'm all for the custom stuff! Nice work Nick.
This is so crazy!! I'm a straight og boosted boiz... brought me to you.. but I actually only live 2 hours from yous!!! Iv built so many hondas an just feel like a part of me lost something not knowing you existed... you must get bugger
John and George are Fl legends. Glad you got to meet them. Definitely should make a collaboration soon.
Awesome build Nick., I'm so glad you were able to take a break and visit Florida. Can't wait to see the car in person. To fix that brake squeak,[it works Nicks, I've done 1000s of brake jobs ] give the brakes a quick inspection, make sure the caliper slides, pins, etc have a quality brake lube,anti-seize, etc Make sure any anti-rattle clips springs, pads are in place . Remove the pads and clean both the caliper side and rotor side of the pads. A quick scuff on any sharp edges with 400 sandpaper is always a good idea. Purchase a can of Permatex disc brake quiet spray. I recommend clean gloves while spraying the pads and another set of disposable gloves when installing them into the caliper .. Cleanliness is important, as the product is extremely sticky.
1. Lay the brake pads on a flat surface with the metal side up. You want to do this on a surface that can be sprayed upon and dirtied, in a well-ventilated area.
2. Put on rubber or latex gloves to protect your hands from the disc brake quiet spray. It is an irritant and sticky like glue..
3. Shake the can of disc brake quiet for 15 -30 seconds, then remove the cap.
4. Spray the metal surface of each brake pad evenly and in a sweeping motion until coated with a thin layer. Keep a clearance of about 12 inches between the pads and the spray nozzle when spraying.I usually give a few lights coats, allowing each coat to dry a little.
5. Allow the brake pads to dry for at least 30 minutes, preferably in a warm place or in direct sunlight. This will ensure maximum adhesion of the disc brake quiet. Once 30 minutes have elapsed, the brake pads are ready to be installed on your vehicle. Pump the brakes before you drive, check the fluid, The noise should be gone.
Lol it’s the particular compound the brake pads are made up of. Nothing you can do, it’s the trade off of having a racing compound pad.
LOL Ask the owners of their new 200,000 dollar 911 turbos if they accept the dealer telling them the brake squeal coming to a slow speed stop is normal.? They shouldn't squeal; he didn't just run the 24 hours of Lemans before stopping by Kyle's place. Did he say which brand, compound,etc? And would he use a race-only pad for a street performance car? Even so, most high-quality race pads are rated for road use. The squeal is a result of the pad vibrating and not maintaining even pressure on the rotor
. I've done brakes on all kinds of performance cars using a variety of different compounds, and most have giant brake surfaces [pads, rotors,] Of course the surface finishing has to be done correctly, rotor thickness, run out, Porsche style dampens, caliper operation, etc None of them squeal unless something is wrong or they've been beaten up badly on the race track.
Mate the car looks and sounds beautiful, you've done an amazing job.... wish I had a quarter of your talent 💥👍❤
You got it mate... Keep wrenching everyday!! 😁👍
I’m simultaneously swapping a new m96 into my 996.1 while kswapping my childhood ek. I think I’ve missed an opportunity here 🤦🏼♂️
I would LOVE to K-Swap my Boxster! Why would you not want to go with Double the HP for half the cost?
Between you and Bayside Fabrication, I have been on Copart almost every day drooling over 911's!
Definitely want to get a 997.2 or 991.1 that's been wrecked or a flood car and K swap it. The body harnesses electronics are my main concern with a flood car tho...
Good stuff. Sucks it was raining when you and Kyle went out
OMG, someone please make a Boxster K-Swap Kit! Please!!!!
You can buy decent shells for less than Miata money...
Great to see yall together🤘
Great video!! Love that swap 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Nick!! I've been eyeing your channel for sometime and keeping you on the radar, especially this build!
Now that the border is open, I'd like to chat with you regarding plans for my Element, and get your input! You're expertise with K-series tuning shows, especially with Ktuner, and your work with the Speed Academy Civic build!
Thanks - Always happy to discuss, best way to get ahold of me is email - nick@tuningbynick.com
Cool to see channels I watch meeting up. Never thought I'd see you on boostedboiz or LHT.
This makes me so happy. Finally saw Jimmy Oakes with BoostedBoiz at Sema now you make an appearance. All my fav UA-camrs comin together! We def think alike haha
Dude much respect and keep it up!
I love this build!
Another great video Nick
Also im in love with the K swap 🔥🔥🥵
20:16 Then try out the roads in Greece/Turkey first ;) The reason is the heat and the smoother asphalt surface and the effect (grip loss) gets multiplied with wet surface. Your roads in Colorado are maybe in a worse condition than in Florida, but they're more rough/porous, so the rubber of the tire can claw into the gaps.
Wild, have a fun trip. Been a boosted boizz fan since the wago days, nice collab 👌
That’s so awesome!!! Need a kit for sure
Hey Nick, love the Porsche. I realized in the videos you were cruising around Woodbridge. I would love to do an exhaust in the spring time on my 2019 Acura ILX ASpec, can you give me some suggestions. Thanks!! Keep up the great content.
Keep up the good work nick
Shout out to LHT performance!
Thanks buddy.
Welcome to Florida!
I have a 2006 C4 in Arctic Silver Metallic. If the engine ever goes, I plan to copy your swap haha
cant get enough of this thing
That Altima wanted all the smoke lol
I wonder if a k series could fit in a cayman similarly to the 996/997
987.2 Cayman here. I'm curious too. Love my flat 6, but I would be interested if I ever lost the motor.
When you are a business owner, you are also the person that wrestles the garbage cans.
Sounds amazing....
So this is why Kyle just bought a cayman s
This car is so sick!!!
And Kyle just got a Porsche
Horsche Power
Can you throw this in a cayman?
Do you do quotes for a full swap build if a chassis is sent to you?? Either civic or 997?
You should try and take it to this vs that i think its in nevada with hoonigan boys plus youll have a closed track to give it the beans 🤘 🔥
Hey Nick, so awesome! Can you do me a favor and talk about gear ratios and how it works out as a street car? I would think it would be really tall but maybe not.
N/a carreras have short gearing , I have a buddy with a LS3 swapped Carrera4 and the gearing is way to short for a 6.2 V8 so it would be perfect for a k series.
Love your build! I say repaint the 911 in Honda Fiji Blue 💙
shoulda brought it to a Honda meet.
Big ups to #tuningbynick shining some light on Canadian car builders, tuners and youtubers! #boostedboiz #LHTperformance #escargotboostedgarage #tuningbynick #cleetusmcfarland
Still 412! wtf! that good hp! you have less weight as well, if i'm not mistaken. i mean H6 or boxer 6 is heavy, more then a k24.
Hope Kyle gets a C4S for a Kswap. Traction.
Man that is kinda sad the $10,000 haha engine made 260whp lol. Make sense to go k swap in these older 911. Porsche drivelines can support so much more.
Great build Nick. Would love to Dyno my MK7 Golf R at your shop.
I'm down for the Cayman swap. Do you think longitudinal or transverse?
Badass car that’s what I wanna do with a 993 tbh.
I want pov movie!
ARE YOU settimg up to sell full bolt on kits for this k swap, im asking because im in Barcelona spain and plenty of k motors here and im thinking of doing this swap. Let me know a bit more about this swap and the chances of setting up a full swap kit.
Put it at 20psi! Life is too short! Go big or go home!
Did swapping the Honda power steering alter the steering feel?
Is this first kswap 997 or 996?
Always hot there
love it
Any plans to offer a turn key swap service?
I wonder how much weight you could shape off.
Better horse and flat torque production, the k is superior
I’m have 02 996 automatic with bad engine
I need help with swapping
Im gonna put a k in my 986 boxster i need information on it does anyone know exactly what i need as far as parts or know how i can get in contact with anyone that knows i would appreciate it
Blasphemy!!
When will the Cayman be finished? I have a 2006 S and have been looking at the LS swap. I like what you have done with the 911. Will you offer a kit for these cars?
The goal for the Cayman is end of Spring time - I plan on offering kits for both the Cayman/Boxster and 997/996 cars. the 996/997 kit is almost done
That's exciting to here. I just sold my autocross 911. Cracked heads. Wish I had seen this before letting it go. Looking forward to following the cayman build.
@@tuningbynick How would you like to do two of them at the same time?
What transmission is being used?
How to make a German car reliable.
Are u Ontario based
How much lighter is it?
How long u guys are in st pete
Nice
the dude with hat in the last part of the video, he mentioned his nsx. Curious what's his ig?
@boostedboizkyle
Just got to ask.. why a honda motor?
We actually answer that question multiple time in the video - The Porsche engines are old and expensive and dont actually make that power - The K series Honda engine makes more power, costs less money, and is easier to work on
👀🤔😏😍😍👍
