Power Up - Flipping the Switch on My Porsche 964 for the FIRST TIME!

[@2of2DCH]

You're sorta insane for doing this build. Yet I 110% admire, and am impressed by, all the time, effort and energy you're putting into it.

[@islandworks]

Most definitely insane! I hope it works in the end lol!

[@jeff.5380]

This is a perfect example as why race cars are so expensive. Such amazing attention to detail.

[@joseywales3789]

*If a job is worth doing.......... It's worth doing RIGHT!* and this is most definitely done right (although I'm sure that it's a bit like going down a rabbit hole) and it's proof of the quote "the last 10% takes 90% of the time, effort, money and energy!" But it's one step closer. Thanks for posting your content, it's really appreciated 👍

[@paulsimonsson]

This project is so impressive, alongside the videos. Wow!

[@KeithProctorArtist]

So much time and effort put in to this exquisite project.... "amazing workmanship" .

[@MrUltralove]

You're actually making my dream come true. And my dream is not to have a car this cool, but to see someone, somewhere in the world build this type of car. I'm an industrial designer myself, and the best thing I like about your progress is you keep aesthetics with functionality always together. Love watching your content!

[@islandworks]

My moto is simplicity is the ultimate sophistication :-)

[@jetset8888]

Love the attention to detail

[@eventsmania]

You should call it the 2 million $ project but I think this masterpiece worth more....

[@islandworks]

For 2mill it might be for sale :-)

[@eventsmania]

@@islandworks it will make, you just need to finish it and get a good photographer ;)

[@hilbilchillbil]

Watching that boot almost curl up on itself then just sort of straighten out and go to the correct spot very satisfying

[@islandworks]

It’s alien technology!

[@hilbilchillbil]

Looks like it epic amount of work and super neat 👍

[@Alex-ns2qq]

An amazing build and amazing skills.. Thanks for creating such fascinating and interesting content on reengineering our classic Porsche cars..

[@terrenceyang8798]

Never a disappointing episode ! Enjoy how you are so focus and motivated.

[@SupercarSeany]

There are a lot of great build out there, but this has to be one of the most meticulously thought out and executed builds I have ever followed. Love it.

[@HellaBuggin]

As an audio engineer who's been making custom cables for decades, I commend you good sir. Very nice work. Getting components to communicate through little wires is a complicated rabbit hole. OCD is an asset in this pursuit.

[@islandworks]

Gotta love the OCD! Painful way of making great progress ;-)

[@HellaBuggin]

@@islandworks Love your videos. Keep it up.

[@grippgoat]

I was wondering why you made the leads to the ECU so long in the previous video. It just occurred to me that the engine is in the back. 😂

[@islandworks]

Yes, a proper car with the driver in front of the engine :-)

[@ldadol]

This is quickly becoming my favorite channel! Very exciting stuff powering it on! The long wait between videos is totally worth it, take your time doing it right!

[@polloloci21]

This is crazy!! How do you not have millions of subs 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@islandworks]

Spread the word 😄🍻

[@stephanjansen9824]

These videos always highlight my day when a new one shows up. Thank you for all you do!

[@kennethsibert1067]

Excellent video. A lot of thought went into the design and execution of the electronic components of this video. Keep up the incredible work and look forward to the next masterpiece. Ken

[@robin_marriott]

Very impressive job on the wiring, it’s one of those things which people do so badly so when it’s done right it stands out. I shouldn’t be surprised, because everything you’ve done on this build has been excellent. Looking forward to seeing more.

[@jimbalsdon9867]

excellent work , really like your attitude towards form and function you mentioned you are new to can bus, Google, Can Bus termination this will eliminate communication problems Love your videos

[@islandworks]

Thanks! My issue right now is understanding canbus messaging. I’ll get it, but need a bit more time ;-)

[@hifiandmtb]

Such a brilliant build, Jonas. Whenever you get a video out is good with me!

[@chancextw]

Your video truly amazed me and taught me a lot about the knowledge and skills that I have been longing to learn. It is extremely helpful for my long-planned project. Thank you so much for sharing! I wish you all the success in your project!

[@mikaeloberg1460]

This is the most interesting channel I know, everything is done so well. great fun following you.

[@RT-kr7dk]

This is by far my favorite channel. I build my own stuff similar to you. You educate us all on your passion. Thank you!!

[@islandworks]

Thank you!

[@ebdbjr]

I have enjoyed your videos and I'm sharing your build experience though I am not at your level of Build experience or knowledge. Can't wait to HEAR & SEE the finished Build. MUCH RESPECT!!

[@islandworks]

Step by step I learned the hard way by not giving into the easy way. Thanks for watching!

[@p0intdk]

It looks great, the extra work you put into there wiring is beyond what I would do 😄

[@anidiotinaracingcar]

Oh, *that* power, *electrical* power....

[@vmm4858]

NIce to have you back, been missing your videos. Excellent job as usual. Thanks for sharing. 👍

This last piece was very difficult to find a way to finish! Too much distractions ;-)

great work! that came out super nice

[@darylmorse]

Really impressive!

[@robbell4339]

Absolutely love this project! ❤

[@Contune]

Wow, the work you put in to this is super impressive. Getting motivated to do a complete harness in my project.

[@its_dhazardous]

Great video again dude! Also a note on the loop at the terminated end, it’s also used for safety in case of a snag so it doesn’t immediately rip out of your connector/break the wire.

[@islandworks]

Good point! A bit of strain release is always good!

[@27jpski]

Great job! Impressive work

[@sats7819]

Lovely wiring mate

[@southney7211]

Awesome work buddy 👍

[@lowlygentleman1466]

Nice Job !!!

[@GarageItYourself]

Ah yes, the joys of wiring and even more time consuming for motorsport spec wiring. Coming along nicely and the old 3D printer is paying for itself now 😉

[@dacky3320]

Top work

[@jakeaharvey]

Beautiful work as always, keep it up!

Welcome to the fun!

[@MrLolimnot]

Perhaps you've already explained this in a previous video but where have you purchased your bodyparts? (Carbon roof, wider fenders, etc.) Oh! and btw, keep up the great work!

[@islandworks]

Check our DRS Development 👍🏻

[@timburton1080]

Done a much more rubbish version of that myself, so can understand your time in it. If I did another I'd go multiple pdm to avoid big snakes.

[@deman6772]

awesome

[@_MacGuffin_]

amazing!!

[@drbrownbear2973]

Tidy setup

[@all-flat-engines]

Truly amazing craftsmanship. Where do you get your connectors from? You’ve inspired me to go back a redo all my wiring

[@islandworks]

All my connectors are from Souriau which is kind of similar to the Autosport ones. I ended up with them since RS-components has a good inventory of them.

[@all-flat-engines]

@@islandworks thank you

[@tomasis7]

very nice work and high quality components! I personally think ABS enclosure is robust enough :)

[@islandworks]

The Deutch ones are really good!

[@weduhpeople8504]

What shifter is that? CAE made in Germany? I have a Motec c127 on order and contemplating in getting that c1212 to connect to my m142 for my 2018 Honda Civic Type R fk8. I think I’ll also get the PDM30 and rotary knob. My engine builder says he can install the c1212 in my dash. I just have to make sure the dash can be programmed to display everything the oem dash displays like turn signal indicator, fuel level, coolant temp, gear display as I will be having a Quaife sequential gear box into the car.

[@islandworks]

It is indeed a CAE. Sounds like you have an exciting project ongoing! Go full in and build your dream!

[@SJLaine76]

Nice work! I noticed that when the display is on, it creates reflections on the dash. I don’t know if it’s going to be visible by the driver or disturb, but may I suggest some matt finished black film underneath the lip?

[@islandworks]

That’s a good tip. I think the top of the dash towards the window is the bigger issue

[@SJLaine76]

@@islandworks it probably is a bigger issue, but I think you are going to solve it 😀

[@Lindau32]

Great work! Can you tell where you got the mil spec connectors from?

[@islandworks]

RS-components brand is Soriau

[@HansonLinek]

You forgot to abrade the heat shrink ends prior to applying the epoxy and shrinking.

[@islandworks]

What does that mean?

[@HansonLinek]

@@islandworks you're supposed to sand the dr25 heatshrink exterior to help the rt125 epoxy to stick to it when you do the boots.

[@islandworks]

@@HansonLinek I’m a beginner ;-) They seem to be sticking nicely though

[@RobbieD.]

Really enjoy seeing the progress and everything coming together. Another channel I follow is this one with the link. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jXrcqaWshJiXiM0 At the 12min mark to maybe give you some ideas on how the mount your stunning wire loom. Keep up the great work. And sure we are all patiently waiting for your next video 🙏😊

[@islandworks]

Thanks! What I didn’t mention in the episode is that I’ve pulled the harness in a way that I’ll be able to use the original mounting points and plastic hardware.

Yo when’s the next vid? Thanks

Hi Dear, I want to tell you something for your future good. I saw your KZbin channel & video.Your video is good But your video thumbnail quality is not good and the writings are not clear. I will complete all of your video thumbnails for design by Photoshop. & Complete SEO of all your videos. If you complete all these tasks, your channel will have a good future

[@FriendM2010]

Mad science! Very impressive. Getting really exciting now. Did I miss where you fabricated those wild looking doors? I’m not far from where Singer builds cars. I can see them wanting all your electronic doo-dads. 👍 They’re gonna want to talk to you someday. 😂🤓. I’m just excited to upgrade my 964’s audio. 🥴🥳🏌️No wait, Elon may wanna use this monster you’re building as the next moon rover. 🤘

[@islandworks]

I’m all for the moon rover conversion and looking forward to the call from Singer! The doors was covered in “Kevlar dress up” I think… but it was a while ago. They are from DRS development.
