Rnellums and I have been playing around with a Porscharu logo for fun. I was goofing off in the garage tonight and I engraved it into a piece of plastic. I think it came out pretty good. I am planing to engrave it on the block off plate on my Subaru transmission.


That logo is pretty darn slick....I like you again...hahaha

Unpacked and ready to mount. I just need to drill the holes for the concrete anchors. I should have the 914 up in the air by next weekend. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)

Right? So far I have a friend that asked if we could do a clutch on his cousins car and a friend that wants to do a cat back borla exhaust on his wrx. I haven't even bolted it to the concrete yet. Haha. I don't mind. It will be fun.

The key is having your car on the lift so it is taken. LOL
Seriously though nice score on the lift. Hands down the best purchase for my 914s I have ever made

Ray, nice project & nice progress! I like the Subi SOHC motors. Got a similar one in the 01 OB. Bought intentionally as a future donor.

Enjoy!

I am not going to make it to the RRC this year, I don't think my car will be ready. I am hoping to have it running by the end of September. I am working on the radiator install right now. I fabricated the mount and I am working on the shroud. Attached Image Attached ImageAttached ImageAttached Image

I am a Subaru fan as well. This will be my fifth one, first one in a Porsche. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) It just seems like the right choice for my 914.

I made some great progress this weekend. I completed my radiator mount/shroud fabrication. Hey Mueller, I put the shroud together with solid rivets, nut plates and a few rivnuts. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

The tranny and the engine are mated. It looks like I have to remove some sheet metal. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) The starter, clutch relase arm and the tail of the tranny are hitting the sheet metal.

Where did you pickup that radiator? Looks good and I like the fan shroud.

I picked it up off of e-bay.

I also ordered the correct lower vibration mounts. Found the Toyota part number and ordered them from Amazon. It worked out pretty nice.
