Nice to see Susie getting some love on the channel. Even nicer to see her working on the car. 🤙

[@syygnis]

Good pickup! I remember Hawko's 997

[@MafiaboysWorld]

Nice little score Susie, can't wait to see the birthday it gets and whatever extra in the future. 😎👍 Andrew, a pair of G30-660's for a birthday present for Susie to put on the Porsche wouldn't be a bad idea. 😉

[@David__]

Great to see you finally getting your own project car Susie! Look forward to seeing if you take it as far as some of Andrew's projects :)

[@jethrox827]

Always thought the S would make a great project track car, don't see many with turbo kits or good body dresser kits to give them a modern look

[@arthurtwp]

Following! About to embark down the rabbit hole with mine in WA! Keen to see what you guys do!

[@MK-su6eg]

Nice, great overall checking and replacements! Basically did everything that a 20 year old car needs from wear and tear. My 2006 boxster S ,since 2019, was a well maintained and a 1 owner car ,every day driver. Aloha from Hawaii MK.

[@dorifthor]

Great choice. I made the move from JDM to a Porsche 944 turbo and never looked back. I love the way the paint and leather seats clean up so easily.

[@gearheadindustriesmedia6890]

Great job Susie 😊 iv always wanted one.. wide body nice wheels… just a very affordable sexy weekender

[@dimensions1026]

Excited about this series!!

[@danielbrealey2924]

I see Motive. I see "new project car". I see RWD and manual- I'M IN! Let's goooo! 💪😄

[@jrbuch]

From memory I think you can fit a 997 airbox (just - it's a tight squeeze) and larger throttle bodies from a 996 which give a slight bump in power. There's been a handful of these modified in the UK to extract the maximum from the engine without going overboard.

[@ChristopherHallett]

A 997 airbox? These can be LS-swapped if you're crazy enough. Besides doubling the torque, it also drives Porsche fanboys absolutely mental, always an admirable goal.

[@mediocre_moto]

Can’t wait to see this out on the track, nothing sounds quite like a Porsche six at full noise! Susie is going to need a nice tweed cap to keep that hair under control 😁

[@midnighteightsix6919]

Well done on the project car Susie! Looking forward to more episodes

[@TheCluelessEnthusiast]

I never would have guessed for you guys to choose an older german car. Very nice choice! Can't wait to see what happens with this porsche in the future 👍

[@baldis12]

Cool project! Nothing more satisfying than driving a car. after servicing it yourself :)

[@aDaWaN]

Great choice of car! These are intentionally held back by Porsche, so very rewarding to modify. Would be cool to have Susie on the channel as a regular host!

[@ZeeLover123]

Need an update video on Nissan Z drag time! Put better wheels on it yet or made it able to do a burnout?

[@linchester8464]

def wheels, tyres and brakes sorted who knows how old are the tyres on the car and if they were replaced. new rotors, brake pads and braided brake hoses

[@johndc2998]

What song at 0:52 ?

[@StreetDreamzTT]

Niceeee. Due to the rise in jdm car prices. I been looking at euros. This is a pretty sweet pick.

[@markreyes4627]

Yes love the first gen boxster s. Keen to see what you guys do with this car!

[@JohanH1990]

Go Susie go, good luck! Get some marks on those nails

[@jeanphilipbonin8033]

why the s2000 wasn't in the option?

[@shadowred1980]

Good base for a project. Keep us updated how you get on. :)

[@ChristopherHallett]

Fit some mesh (no, not AutoSalon shiny expanded aluminium, some powdercoated black 10mm square wire mesh) behind those vents in the bumper to keep all the detritus out.

[@ben7020]

A BMW e93 335i is a category option too 👍

[@26Petermc]

Cool car . Can only imagine with a tt in it

[@hyper8545]

Though we were about to see a s2000 xD they have gotten expensive tho. But more than the Porsche really?

[@jamdc2000]

This will be interesting, cannot wait

[@tombackhus7212]

high quality, yay

[@Tom-lf8hx]

What a awesome little beast! Any reason for the royal purple? I know its a good oil, but do porsches love it more?

[@MotiveVideo]

Also a great product and we’re friends with the Australian distributor. Sometimes you just got to share the love.

[@taimaishu-nao1922]

The 986 would make a perfect Day Job project!

[@Chilicharger665]

This will be cool! It is good you will get some sponsored parts to offset the maintenance costs on these things lol

[@daz6269]

Best aftermarket parts get the from bob whyms automotive is seven hills mate

[@antonisp6629]

cool project

[@bvward]

Susie, tough decision on who get to ride with you... Any thoughts on a roll bar for it? In the 'States we're seeing Boxsters with trashed engines getting the Subie turbo treatment☺

[@vasilismz7382]

Background songs ??

[@markoz673bajen8]

OMG A for once a Golden Goddess to start my day. Keep up the good work. Goldez

[@ricepony33]

Great value for money

[@drewtarrant7321]

Go Suzie! =)

[@hkpandaray7877]

What about about the S2000

[@MotiveVideo]

Too expensive

[@richieduck67]

I approve

[@kevinmiller4757]

go susie !!!

[@slickman5969]

love women who love cars! supa rare

[@josesupra]

S2000 would have been a great choice honestly. Why didn’t you guys consider it?

[@MotiveVideo]

Price.

[@brettro8210]

I thought you learnt your lesson from the last Porsche project car you had?

[@chewdoobautomotivedetailtm2883]

[@tturi2]

lucky you live in Sydney and don't get cooked instantly haha

[@MotiveVideo]

In Summer we do!

[@lmo2021]

Um think they completely neglected a Suzuki cappuccino or like a Honda beat

[@kentbeitel9966]

Are Susie and Andrew married? Or together? Australia has the be the best place to own a convertible , especially being close to the coast

[@inshallahbutcher1464]

looking good Susie .keep up the good work

[@Liemciemdk89]

Jet 200 please

[@igvtec]

Come on now just them three, don't forget Honda S2000.

[@MotiveVideo]

Too expensive now.

[@igvtec]

@@MotiveVideo yeah fair enough.

[@808vws8]

A Boxster...I’m not trying to sound like a dickhead but I’d had pictured you with a 911 Turbo or a 991.2 GT3 or maybe even a GT2 RS. Anyways I hope you prove me wrong&we eventually see it turn into something cool Aloha🤙🏽

[@MotiveVideo]

All cars we would love but can’t afford. Simple mathematics.

[@renatoperez8792]

k swap the world

[@muntee33]

I'm only 3 seconds in but.... 🤞🤞🤞🤞GTSt 🙏🙏🙏 (What is this spam BS?) (👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇) Edit: DAMN IT!!! You guys are missing out. 4wd is fast and all, but 2wd is just so much more fun. It's like dirt bikes, yea the 4-stroke is the pick if you want to lap as fast as possible but if you just want to have fun and grin like an idiot, even when just messing around, then the ol 2smoker is probably the best choice of the 2. Common, build a decent street/sport GTSt... And since you don't need 1 billion power watts for such a car. You can showcase your skills at building something that is absolutely relaible as well as sublimely configured & tuned for; lag, fueling, spool time, throttle response, idle, etc etc. (In real world applications) Further more, it'd be interesting to see how you guys approach building the ultimate street/sport engine with low - mid torque requirements. *Even more so if you was building it to look slick but not look outlandish, so to speak, in a real world attempt to not overly attract the eyes of the law... I'm talking low mount, subtle bov/bpv, minimal performance modifications that stand out like purple or red anodised fittings, braided hoses looking out of place running directly from one point to another, etc etc. (The engine bay of that insane R32 at SEMA comes to mind for the conceptual style to aim for. As in, emulating the appearance of an extremely rare, limited edition version that was built by a car manufacturers performance/racing division for use on public roads.) I'd be happy to see ANY GTSt / Rb25 build from U guys tho. The GTR /RB26 hogs the spot light and the other great skyline Nissan built misses out. *Just please don't build one with timeslips or an outright dyno power figure in mind tho please. A better measure is how much power you can get to the ground, with excellent throttle response and fueling throughout the entire rev range. And is completely usable in everyday circumstances, (like rain and/or peak hour traffic while also being able to be driven at 100% for extended periods of time without breaking a sweat and if driven well, can reliably do so for at least 40tho km's before the engine and drivetrain need any maintenance/repairs that require the engine/box/diff to come back out.

[@danielbrealey2924]

What the hell was all THAT? Geez 🤦🤦🤦

[@otownhardcore]

I don't know guy, the first thing I would ask is... Why is the Porsche in the same price range as a Mazda... As a previous owner of 3 German cars I can pretty much guarantee the worst car experience you will ever have will be with that car

[@MotiveVideo]

There are bargains to be had and cars to fix up. Sometimes the risk is worth it

[@deciplesteve]

Sounds like you bought already flogged cars, flogged them yourself, or just generally have no clue what you're talking about. German cars are fantastic, especially Porsches.

[@elitecol69]

For those of you who don’t understand what this video is all about, let me break it down for you and when she says that... Read more
