The key is on the left for Le Mans starts, it’s a racing heritage thing. You would run to your car, jump in, use your right hand to put it in gear, left to start, drive off and buckle up.

[@CrossfireGamingNetwork]

Yup this

[@HacksawJimThuggin]

Thanks for the info

[@fortnitegaming3212]

I read a while ago it was due to a copper shortage long ago and to save wire they moved it to the left side.

[@dcskate1022]

Has nothing to do with that. Porsche already came out and explained it.

[@abcsteve]

I’ve always thought this was super interesting and cool 🎉

[@Jupiterider1]

As a Porsche 996 Turbo owner, I watched this series with great interest. I am very happy you have worked out most of the issues and can now enjoy it. It has turned out awesome! You have given me plenty to think about regarding mods to my own Porsche. First and foremost the bitchin’ carbon fiber roof panel conversion. Please keep the great content coming. I can’t wait for the next one.

[@7seriesmax]

Honest to God dude you had my heart pounding with excitement when you went to fire it up and it actually had oil pressure. One of those fuck yeah moments that comes so rarely.

[@WayApp]

Wow, your honesty and transparency in sharing this experience is truly commendable.

[@benn106]

This channel deserves way more viewers/subs hands down one of my favorite channels to watch! Keep up the good content!

[@ctvette1318]

So glad you got it running and no damage!! Car looks and sounds amazing!

[@bmfenn]

Love the drive-by of the Crab Deck in the background during the test drive!

[@Mabes156]

4:32 building oil pressure is the best moment in KZbin history! Amazing series’s

[@andrewbeetz2196]

Way to stick with it, glad it's almost done! Can not wait to shelf this thing and get on that 3000gt!

[@PrismIsAPuck]

Fernando loving Big X is awesome lolol. Great video guys! Yall produce some of the best, most interesting content with the builds yall have been taking on!

[@scraplifegarage]

I spent too much time in TX the past year, Big X has been in the main rotation!

[@RickheadWashington]

Really happy you finally got it on the road brother! Congrats! Lots of hard work. I'm sure it feels awesome to finally drive it.

[@yammy1000]

Hope this isnt too late to say, but the coolant has to be vacuum filled on these cars. For one, it would have shown up the leak before filling. And the second thing is filling like you did can cause air pockets in the water jacket leading to hot spots & warping, putting you back to square one... Hope it goes well, as thats a stunning car now!

[@cucamongaduke3600]

My eyes were GLUED to the oil pressure gauge while you were cranking it and when it first nudged up I got so happy for you. Awesome solve!

[@charlesshamseldin9555]

Your enthusiasm for the hobby is infectious. I don't own any of the cars you feature, but enthusiastically subbed

[@stevebarnette]

I have a 997 C2S 6-speed with the turbo’s carbon ceramic brake option and the brakes feel bad until warm. When cold, the brake petal doesn’t give good feedback and the brakes don’t bite. But when warm/hot, best brakes I’ve ever felt. Can’t make them fade when trying.

[@dcpowered]

Your enthusiasm and excitement are contagious! Great video!

[@johnw3638]

Sitting on the edge of my seat on this one! So many ups and downs....starting with"OH NOOO" then "YEA", then another OH NO, finally at the end YEA!! You certainly have perseverance

[@concernedcitizen2868]

that cop must watch your youtube and seen all the cameras and said not today :) its good to see.

[@geoffhallimond3711]

my heart was in my mouth waiting for the oil pressure needle to go up you have done fantastic job of it its a stunning ca🔥🔥🔥

[@davidmanning1474]

I loooooove the sound of turbo whistle. Even in my little poko, it sounds awesome.

[@weldchip]

you need to plug the ecu diagnostic tool in and run the brake bleed routine to get all the air out, manual bleeding wont work.

[@williamcalia2465]

It's Running! I knew you would get it solved. Once you get it all dialed in go enjoy it.

[@geraldturner3935]

I’ve really enjoyed your videos and admire your tenacity to finish your Porsche project.

[@Far2hip]

When you pull those paper filters, it’s a better practice to cut them down once from top to bottom and spread out the paper. This makes it easy to see any trapped sparkly bits. Makes it easy to see the color of those bits to determine the possible issues by metal types. 👍🏻😎👍🏻

[@qitexas2516]

nothing beats the turbo whine. i love my gl63 turbo whine.

[@roberttowsley8958]

Awesome build. Channel just keeps getting better!🎉

[@chrischallis4240]

Love that colour..purple metallic rocks..!

[@skylerjones2302]

that is so cool y’all got this thing running, inspiring me to start building my truck

[@SLASHMANISM]

gotta use a scan tool to activate certain abs valves for that brake bleed

[@brainz006]

This. Must use a scan tool to purge the ABS.

[@808SSCamaro]

Let’s go! Happy to see you were able to figure out the oil pressure issue!

[@bentickner1]

watching this build has given me way too much confidence in tearing apart 911 turbos and putting them back together. I just ripped a 911 turbo engine out today and I think I am putting in an ls7 in its place.

[@aksgarage3230]

I have done the same thing with that brake issue. I had to do it a bunch of times for it to work. Drive around and slam on brakes over and over again .

[@RipRoaringGarage]

I drove my 1320 without any plates at all, NY State Trooper right behind me, turn by turn, then stopped following me. I still havent opened up that car! Spring is here though Time to burn some rubber! And you guys, get to the Demon!

[@EgTwizzy]

That purple looks so good man. Happy to see this beaut making spooly noises on the road 😍

[@peterrule8107]

I knew the oil pump wasn’t the problem (from experience), I’m so glad it was an easy fix. Having to rebuild the engine again would have sucked real bad.

[@gettin-sendy]

Great vid, cheers guys. Why didn't you plug the scan tool in and cycle the abs module whilst bleeding the brakes, it's a real thing, more people need to do it more often.

[@InitialEngineers]

HELL YEAHHHH !!!! So glad you figured it out this is awesome !

[@giordano3570]

So happy to see that you got these problems fixed and its driveable and you actually show the bad things to! Very inspirational and motivates me to work on my car! I recently purchased a Bmw E30 and plan to swap a motor in the near future!

[@junktionfet]

I was genuinely bummed by the last video but wow what an incredible outcome. I've been wanting to see this beast move under its own power for a long time

[@AcXr50]

My man, so EFFING happy for you.

[@hometheatre9978]

I never rated the 997 but yours looks awesome and I'm now considering one myself. Well done!

[@Ragnarok_79]

Been following from the start and I'm so happy for you bro. The finish line is so close 💥

[@kuksgarage2715]

its the ABS system you gotta shock the system after doing a bleed job. Just hit the brakes couple times locking up the wheels and maybe should work

[@blaya58]

If brakes feel bad, and are aftermarket, maybe deleting brake booster will help / or different master cylinder

[@nobodyshero200]

Great news! Awesome video. Loving the seats!

[@gezdipz5425]

And finally!! The car looks immense worth the wait, let's see what it does on the dyno. Keep up the great content guys 👌

[@WildDigger]

It's beautiful! And I am glad you guys dodged a bullet with the pressure valve.

[@wilfredocaban3542]

The paint on that car is gorgeous.

[@jezcrook]

Wow amazing to see it run after all this time. That is one sick car I love it.

[@vxracing380]

Sick car! So nice to see it moving now! Love this build you do an awesome job!

[@dsetter608]

Lucky it wasn't the oil pump as the last couple of bolts in a complete strip of the block are on that oil pump. You can't go any deeper into a 911 engine build than the oil pump. Whew! Test drive at 2AM was totally responsible as it was already warmed up Now drive the snot out of that beast! Well done!!

[@MikeAarset]

Been waiting SO LONG for a 930 (997) 911 vid. This vid fully Satisficed me.

[@sigvision4189]

Love hearing those turbos whistle

[@lukea3072]

It's awesome to finally see this build on the street! Great progress, dawg

[@scraplifegarage]

Thanks dawg!

[@benturnbull6245]

glad to see youre enjoying yourself

[@jimamizzi1]

Great diag, you just wouldn’t think anyone would be dicking around with those. I’m leaning towards your theory, drain plug

[@thierryblanc9000]

Hello its necessary to take a special tool for New liquide cooling système ...good job man

[@daveeyrich7524]

Wow a lot of hard work, congratulations!

[@c5doob]

Amazing to see it moving

[@nigelw598]

Congrats man! All the trials and tribulations just make it that much sweeter. Keep pumping out quality content like this and you’ll be moving up through the various Supercar ownership ranks in no time! This car is a credit to you, Congrats 👍👍🍻

[@murk1352]

Car is so perfect…! I love the color & the wheels! I run Apex’s on my 650H.P. 135i….💪🏻🔥🏁

[@Viking8888]

Glad you were able to get a win with that doo dad that helps with the oil pressure. Hope the brakes won't set you back after figuring out what is going on with them. Looking forward to the next update.

[@EdwardNey-d2e]

Lee, great job on the Turbo. Can you tell me the make and model of the tires?

[@gd1996]

Couldn't help not to laugh because I feel your pain with stuff like that. I build cars from bare shells and rarely do things go as planned and easy.

[@chrissweeney6876]

All over Kent Island my stomping grounds… bring that porshe to the ego alley cars and coffee

[@richardschultz2413]

Key on left for old type racing start. Driver runs to the car

[@Timrsnakess]

Worth the wait!

[@omerkurt9406]

SOUNDS AMAZING

[@christianomerlino7308]

Congratulations guys. After all that hard work, you finally get this is awesome 👏

[@davidfalk8953]

that was a great build,i was happy for you on the oil problem good catch,car looks amazing ,although i thought it would be a lot louder ,anyways have fun enjoy that car

[@hugoperez3584]

I love this kind of videos, I love them

[@Texwill06]

Cop looked and was like nah to much paperwork 😆😆

[@joshuatadrous7351]

It's a good day when you post

[@brandofromdaband0]

BIG X DA PLUG ONLY KNOW FOR THE STEPPIN

[@n55Rob]

Actually the keys on the right side….it was made like that for the Le Man drivers so they could crank the car and out it into gear so they could be faster off the line when the Le Man race had tuning starts.

[@Notasheepleandneverwillbe]

Porsche finally decided to put proper dual A arm suspension on the latest GT3 . Every single person that's driven the new one , says that it makes a huge difference . MacPherson strut suspension is just like front-wheel drive . It was designed to save money , at the expense of performance . Maybe someday BMW will follow suit , instead of spending the money on convincing people that they build the ultimate drivers car . Maybe one day they'll actually build the ultimate drivers car .

[@Mattmazz77]

If you're still having problems bleeding the brakes, try opening up all 4 bleeders and let them gravity bleed for a while. Sometimes, old tricks are the best tricks..lol.

[@Supra0024]

This video gave me serotonin 😂 between the oil pressure finally building and the initial “irresponsible” first test drive at night, I love it hahaha

[@Webuildcoolsh.t]

These videos are really encouraging

[@IlovemySubaru]

I love the stance on this car looks great

[@johnw3894]

Videos keep getting better and more hilarious, keep up the good work

[@lindsayhanson620]

Glad you got it sorted but can't believe the engine specialist did'nt check the relief valves! Especially since they are know to give problems

[@LT64444]

Long time coming... congrats great to see it driving

[@scottyrousay1608]

Same oil filter as my 2000 golf TDI

[@barborisov]

Video was hilarious! Glad it's fixed and was almost a simple fix. Try bleeding those brakes manually, pump pump pump hoooold

[@Nickyb801]

Congrats man!! Fuck yeah! Earned that win. There would be no learning at all if it wasnt the hard way.

[@enlightenedmystery9019]

Your voice is so similar to David Wilcock's voice. Incredible 😳😲

[@cflwhat]

From the color to the carbon fiber, even if it's been a huge pain in the ass.... It's fucking 🤌🏽🤌🏽🤌🏽, seriously. Gorgeous, sounds great even through the microphone...even when Fernando stalls it🤣 I'm sure once you get it mostly worked out it will RIP too!

[@BackRoadsAndTurbos]

It gets pretty grimy around the turbos - would imagine you'll be cleaning the filters every few weeks unless you only drive on perfectly clean and dry roads... Imagine it gets a fair bit hotter there than the engine bay as well.

[@KARLBERGs-Garage]

Looks som freakin clean😍😍 Put a GT2/GT3 wing on it

[@jasonpermenter6765]

SPECTACULAR BUILD!!!!!! 🔥 🔥

[@Murminator660]

Looks good .....is that a spoiler on the next smoked car on the other lift?

[@frankm8533]

Funny seeing you guys in my hometown Lol loving the builds

[@hussainzada79]

What good machine good luck with it bro🔥🔥🔥

[@vincentcarrano6329]

Another cracking vid great to see you drive it

[@wattleyracing]

HAHAHA ITS DEF NOT THE BELT!! I had the same squeaking and wasted a bunch of money on parts only for it to be the exhaust tips rubbing on the bumper. Wouldn’t be surprised if that’s the same in yours

[@LatheWerks]

I see you did the "water vacuum" air intakes by the back wheels

[@taylorbaldt8296]

Love ur content keep it up car came out sick ❤

[@markodria7121]

Thanks for the awesome video!!
