Amazing that you were able to finish it in such a timely manner while filming it all for us to join you in your journey.

[@DriveDriverDriven]

hell yeah man, glad to see it moving under it's own power! The normal 997 clutch slave you didn't use is a hydraulically boosted slave cylinder, you need that extra boost for the aggressive Porsche clutch but no issue for the RPS triple disc. Glad you were able to do the GT2 swap, it's such a no-brainer and a much easier install.

[@chickenfishhybrid44]

Like boosted by the braking system?

[@DriveDriverDriven]

@@chickenfishhybrid44 it's own separate system, but it functions similarly to a hydro-boosted brake system

Gotta give this man credit for his time hard work and effort into this car.

[@RIP911sc72]

Fantastic build! Have watched all the episodes and was very impressed at how well thought out everything was done. For track days, my only thought was whether or not you’ll pass the decibel meter test. Makes for a lousy track day when you pack, travel, unpack and prepare only to find out you’re too loud to run. It does sound amazing. Again kudos to a project well done and well presented

[@UltimateUltimaRS]

Thankfully the tracks near me don't have a decibel limit. The closest track to me runs Top Fuel dragsters and jet cars at their quarter mile strip and nothing is louder than those.

[@alangood8190]

When it comes to technical innovation, prototype development and manufacturing the British are up there with the world's very, very best hence the reason why so many Formula One Grand Prix racing teams are British or based in Great Britain. But when it comes to long term investment and commitment to 'go it alone' mass production and world marketing we are, with few exceptions, next to hopeless, especially in the automotive field. You have good reason to be very proud of your creation my friend. Top of the shop. Well done. Adrenalin is the most expensive drug of them all.

[@UltimateUltimaRS]

Thank you, Alan!

[@sorryimajerk735]

English anything is garbage, Mercedes and Ferrari are where it’s at

[@alangood8190]

@@sorryimajerk735 You say 'garbage' which suggests you are American or Canadian. There was a time when British cars and engines dominated the American 'Indy' car scene with Reynard, Lola, March and Cosworth reigning supreme. Sadly they have all now succumbed and disappeared (Cosworth is now German) which supports my reasoning but to suggest anything English (I think you mean British) is garbage is way off the mark. We're brilliant engineers, designers, technologists and innovators with a positive 'can do' attitude but long term finance and global marketing is our perennial problem as proven with the examples I have given here.

[@SMACZ28]

I have been drooling over this kit... I want to build this with my son... We'll defintely be going back through all the vids.

Your passion for your thing is a thing I can get behind. Your craftsmanship and commitment is commendable. Your ability to manage frustration and iteration is inspiring. The part where that thing wakes the dead- not cool. Put a cutout on it and play the loud pedal when you aren’t pissing off people just tying to live their lives. It sounds awesome. But wow, noise is noise.

[@TheFarCobra]

I misread that as “you must be super loud…”

[@pcase34]

Crazy you built it in less than 2 minutes! At first I saw you spraying the exhaust and was like "noooo" but it turned out amazing. So beautiful.

[@ROBSMODELCARS]

Congrats Rob and getting this far. The car looks great and sounds angry. I did notice in the video that you added a windscreen banner in orange wrap, did you do this to cut light or to make the front of the car look more pleasing. I always thought that the Ultima was a bit square on the top of the windscreen, this looks better with this as in orange, it extends the body visually.

[@UltimateUltimaRS]

It's how the RS looks from the factory so I ordered the vinyl kit they sell. It changes the lines completely.

[@user-qq2mo1ek2r]

Just superb, these Ultima cars are gorgeous and in orange and carbon accents it looks great. Been watching this build from the start and loved every bit of it. I hope you will show further updates, how it drives, how the rear view mirror/camera works out, the cabin being trimmed out etc. Congratulations on a fabulous build so far.

Project Manager here. I want to thank everyone for all the comments and praise. I know Gabe put blood, sweat and tears into this project. There are so many good questions you guys are asking, and Gabe will eventually get too answering all of them. I would answer all of your questions but Gabe, the builder is more knowledgeable on the build then I am (since I have been working on the behind the scenes end of the project). So please be patient. Thanks again for your interest and dedication to his build.

[@chesspiece81]

I found the build maybe 5 months ago or so and have watched every episode you've uploaded since. I am eager to see it completed and for you to do some performance testing against some "benchmark" cars. Maybe once you get done with this build and have enjoyed it for awhile you will begin another build. Your attention to detail and amount of effort you've put into building something really special makes me hope that you find another platform to build. Like a twin turbo Voodoo powered GT40 or something along those lines. I can't think of an KZbinrs that have tackled a build of this caliber off the top of my head and I fully believe that you could really build an extremely successful channel using this project as a springboard for other products. Congratulations

[@BIackCadillac]

It's actually incredible that you built your own supercar not many people can say that. With these things people make the mistake of thinking it's about the cost (I doubt this was cheap) and that they can get a supercar for nothing. It's about building something with your own hands and as a side bonus something that looks really fucking cool.
