It’s like they are Non car guys working on cars

[@GOFAST951]

OMG, I'm speechless! No one, not one person in the Porsche Club has these mysteries engine and KLR chips! This is totally new tech, thats just recently become available! This car is going to be untouchable. I will now go back in time- I also have a DeLorean with Flux-capacitor to 1987 and give this technology to my younger self and become a 951 racing GOD!

[@happyfox711]

full boost on your sarcasm there ;) you could blow up someones 8v head.

[@erikwithak6555]

I was waiting for him to say “Bravo Six going dark” the whole video

[@ealoken]

Whyyyyyyyy! All the shortcuts in the world.. no inner fender work, no lowering on the torsion bars... no no no no. :( i feel sad after looking at the 944...

[@curtgervelis8521]

Me too. If you know anything about a 944 is that the body is solid. What a waste of time and money to modify it.

[@sueallen2838]

that would be laughed at on a trackday by real car enthusiasts. porsche lovers would not go near THAT THING

[@chopperhehehe]

I second this comment 👍👍👍😜🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🦄🎣😁✌️

[@tombrehony6277]

They've done great job on the aerodynamic performance. Also they throw all the good stuff in the skip.

[@deathscope1237]

Fuq u when they see how good it does ittl change their minds

[@kinlochvanderspuy6281]

Agreed, they arnt nice people

[@Geeboogobber]

Fun fact the 944 is actually one of the most successful porsches ever raced and consistently sets track records in wttac and the scca so I think you're a bit off base

[@kevinpawl211]

You better fix that car

[@tombrehony6277]

Be fair it's the 3 apprentices that need fixing...

[@sueallen2838]

Do a close up of the paint job what a mess no clean lines

[@markcozzie]

Wheeler dealer built a lot better track 944 years ago, I wonder how long it really lasted on a track day???,bet it melted on its first day out??? Them times she set are useless,all she had to do was drive slow in the non modified car lol

[@sueallen2838]

the constant exaggerated arm waving is just horrendous

[@johncrosley1]

I would like to know who really does the work. It’s plainly not these clowns.

Fair play , I'm just watching this episode . This should be marketed as a comedy show . They've just MULLERED another car. WOW. All done in the best possible taste...

[@corivian]

Beautiful car and build, but that overspray tho 3:42 😂

[@yandman26]

944 Turbo's are so rare, this is dreadful. Could of been a wicked road car.

[@Windvisualss]

First of all why would you do that to a beautiful turbo? And then you don’t even work well on it dude

[@zingythelemon7949]

Does anyone know what track they sent the 944 around?

[@333pg333]

It's like Jamie Oliver does cars. S'all pukka! Good on them for trying but there's 'stuff' that needs doing to sort it. Where's the rest of the series showing what else they did? 320hp or whatever. How did they get that...chips?

[@FehadBilgramiChannel1]

Captain Price (ref. Call of Duty game franchise) restoring a gem... what isn’t there to love!!!?

[@1234567marks]

I have to give the team credit for getting away with it!, I’ve rarely seen so little aptitude or talent, there is some comedy value in the hopeless creations they come up with though, my favourite was the beetle they did with no front wings and badly fitting bonnet, absolutely hilarious, good luck to them I say :)

[@superbrit3845]

@mark tagtag obviously you can do loads better? How come we don't see you on one of these TV shows demonstrating your talent then?

@@superbrit3845 hiya superbrit, sorry for the delayed response, I’ve been in hospital all week following a life saving operation, unfortunately for you it worked 😂, I’m not arrogant, I’ve done several high quality builds, one winning best in show, so I wasn’t being arrogant I was just stating a fact. My opinion of the work on that show is that it’s generally poor and at times shockingly bad, it’s a view that’s widely held , if you like their work, well that’s your opinion, but it does appear that it’s a minority view, by the way I’ll return the question, could you do better, have you built anything, bike, car, boat? PS you may be correct about my spelling, I’ve looked and I can’t see the error!, what was my spelling mistake?

did you get it against a 944 turbo standard 1989 250HP? I think so! that is cool that as stock is already pretty mean! good job

what is the name of the tool to make holes in the door sill?

[@Dmanpeterson]

Dimple die tool

[@m.f.r5141]

What the hell where they thinking? With this "camouflage pattern" they broke up all the smooth lines of the car and turned it into a unnoticeable piece of junk. In ww2 they had a similar kind of pattern to brake up the lines of battleships. Google it if you don't believe me. I saw every episode of the show and had to watch them make one design fail after the other! Sorry guys, but that ain't good enough.

[@sparx550]

Best car program on tele. They take great cares and reduce them embarrassing pieces of shite, seriously these people are brilliant, they would put a vinyl roof on an Aston Martin if they had the chance. Brilliant the stuff of nightmares.

[@quincyspielberger4366]

Total crap!

[@alittlebitgone]

You increased horsepower by 45%, not 33%. And the car is 8% faster, not 10. #maths

I love the PAINT you confirmed the paint colors and design is gna be perfect on the Nissan D21.

[@Pandanreis-Rice-Jasminrijst]

A Fucking piece of ART

[@richardwilliams2853]

As with most things on TV this is all fake, those 3 people are just face's for a TV program all the work is carried out by real and very skilled mechanics and body work specialist, seriously how does anyone believe any of this fake TV nonsense?

[@sabretooth5404]

what gave it away? could it be that not one of them ever appear to get dirty? could it be the woman parading round with rings on near every finger and a set of fake nails? the shows a bit of a joke tbh. but then so are the cars they turn out

[@onixbonilla4420]

Do you know David White from Subi Swaps? Last October I paid him a good amount of money for some Subaru Conversion work and parts. Up to this point I had received nothing. Every time we communicated, he insisted that everything was fine, but never show me any progress of the work “due to patent issues”. A couple of months ago he offer me to buy his business, so immediately I realized he was scamming me. I contacted another customer and he have the same situation, even he send the same picture of the Subaru engine and transmission donor car. Now it seems he closed the shop, blocked me and disappeared with my money. I was told he worked with you on an episode. So if someone know him or have contact with him, let me know. Thanks Onix Bonilla

[@iantrotman3832]

This series has potential, but seriously, that woman has to go.. total nightmare..

[@tombrehony6277]

I think Henry the Eight would have a solution...

[@enochthetrucker9735]

I hope this wasn't a customer car! I'd put a brick on the long pedal and run it into the shop that ruined this former beautiful piece of art turned piece of trash, if I'd given my 944 to someone and they gave me back this abomination! I'm all for hot rodding and modifying to extremes, but this is a whole new level of stupid! 😢

[@tui9117]

Your just devaluing the car no enthusiast would touch that thing

So you just yadda yadda'd over the the lap of the car you built?

[@TheBarnestah]

It's a shame. It could be good car show but it falls short on many levels. Neither of those porches looked like they were on the limit on the track. As for the horrendous paint over spray and awful bleed on the masking line's. Sorry More effort needed.

Its not my cup of tea with the paint and body kit but there is no need to be rude. Some People on these comments section need a lesson on manners.

[@ChristopherOvrebo]

Razzle dazzle tape line paint bleed

[@Xaltar_]

The only upgrade I saw was to it's gag reflex index. I feel the same way about this thing as I do about "modern art", it's stupid and no matter how you try to explain it it's still stupid. You can shave 12 seconds vs a stock 944 on that track with better tires, a tuneup and a suspension upgrade. Not sure what bugs me more, these guys and their butchery or the wannabe car enthusiast that will pay top dollar for this steaming pile of a ruined classic.

[@sebastianm.8383]

why not building a 924/944 GTP/GTR replica of it, this looks more like a "wanted and not skillfull" the back of the car looks half-finished..................

Too bad you start off with ugly cars that should never be modified.. That 2002 VW Beetle for ex. was a real ugly build. I know you guys in England don't have old Camaros and Corvettes lying around but at least choose sporty cars worthy of modifying. Stop making clown cars. So, on the positive side, you have incredible skills, you are fun to watch. :-)
