Hey there....

Been ages since I've been on the shoptalk forums, that long I had to register again.

Here are some pics of my perverted conversion involving a Subaru EJ20T, Porsche G50 transaxle and a host of other mods.

The car was purchased a few years ago as an unfinished and crudely constructed project which has been painstakingly been rebuilt with countless hours being poured into it.

Recently a great mate ventured here and in a week fully wired the car from scratch (including the aftermarket ecu). We did get the car running...just...and a stuffed starter motor and some other minor details kept us from obtaining our goal of taking it for a spin. All in the fulness of time I guess...... :lol:

It's about time!!! I've been checking your 2 picture "website" for ages waiting for some new news! Looking very good. Ive talked to Ian Swinkels a few times asking about your progress. I'm sure you have more pics, how about uploading those things to your website so everyone else can drool!

Where did you get the CF W decklid from anyway? Looks like its a pretty good copy, how's the fit?

I reckon you should paint the W of the W-decklid. Just leave the two hollows CF.

Looks really good Reub, you must be getting very excited.

You should do a post on GermanLook.com jForums as well, I think you'll stir up all kind of excitement.

I like how you did the front - especially all the extra space. Enlighten us on how you fab-ed that. Very nice!!
