  • Have you seen this?
    There are two very distinct schools of thought when it comes to approaching modern day classics. A lot out there appreciate authenticity, striving to bring back a particular car’s beauty and performance without striving too far from its originality. There are others of course, that think quite differently. Tomoya Watanabe belongs to the latter group. …

    Crazy build, love it!

    • I wonder if the GT2 trunk would have a little more room?

      I get that it would look a little silly on a preface lift narrow body, but the Vee-8 lurking under it may offset the silliness.

      Or time to fab up a fancy intake Box that can make the turn..

        Since you are keeping all the 911 A/C controls in the cabinet, you should keep the 911 A/C wiring. I'm not familiar with the 911 or LS1 wiring specifically, but the A/C is not typically controlled by the ECU so it shouldn't be a part of the new LS1 wiring harness. My guess would be that you need to put the LS1 A/C plug on the 911 wiring harness.

        Most A/C compressor clutches are just a power and a ground.

            Maybe something like this Techart wing will help give you a little more clearance

                      • Speaking of the Lambo, how's cost of ownership for that been for you? Maintenance queen or just a glorified Audi?

                        I'd imagine it's kinda like my 911, where it's pretty reliable and fairly easy to work on; but parts are expensive and if you need to have a shop work on it, it gets really expensive really fast?

                          • I read your stuff at Lambo DIY. I've always wondered why you don't see more exotic gearheads do stuff like that than take it to the dealership. Maybe they just don't blog it.

                            The LS swap is freaking awesome. I've always dreamed about one in an FD but never a 911. I might have to reconsider my next purchase.
