- Опубликовано: 29 сен 2024
- I took a huge risk buying the cheapest 997 Turbo I've ever seen, BUT it is nearing completion. Though it's missing a bunch of parts, let's get them installed and enjoy this thing after almost a year of wrenching!

Bought a 996 this weekend because of you so if anything goes sideways it’s your fault.
Good luck.....your in big trouble.....😅
Good luck. Hope you don’t have any past-due dental work, back child support or HOA dues. Porches have a habit of taking over your wallet and personality.
wait until you start seeing the part costs..lol
It’s a 996, what could possibly go wrong??? 😊
It’s a 996, what could possibly go wrong??? 😊
Was looking forward to this next episode! You are flying through this Matt!
This car is coming out amazing! Keep up the great work Matt 💪🏼
Thanks! Will do!
Just wanted to give a big shout out to the yellow jack for helping out with all the heavy lifting when Matt needed an extra hand. I can't believe I watched both cars get built in such a short time and now they look mint. Matt, thank you for giving me something to look forward to every week. From one car guy to another keep up the awesome work, really enjoy watching your progress.
Thanks for the kind words! The yellow Jack has been mint lol
Get a mini split for garage ac. Game changer. Amazon for $1000 18,000btu 220v. All you’ll need is an electrician to wire it. AC,heat and dehumidify
I would but my little garage actually stays at about the same temp as my house.
Have loved this series, please get another Porsche
Man it looks so good
Remove window tint? Use a steamer and be patientt. It will come off in one piece .... gurarenteed ;-)
Looks amazing! The license plate 😂😂😂
All you need are some sexy wheels now like a customs set on the 996TT. Or then Apex will look good too.
I agree, wheels coming!
I think all number plates should be fitted behind the bumper 👍
Agreed lol
nice
Matt please stop teasing us 😂 I waited the whole video for that damn rear spoiler to be finally fitted and showcased and still nothing 😡 please please next video 🙏
Hahaha yes next one!
Why does it smoke when starting it up? Is that normal for something that has been sitting awhile? Or am I just seeing exhaust fumes?
Maybe be the turbos are on the way out.
@@matt13ross well keep up the good work videos are awesome man
Free comment lol, great build Matt
Thanks lol
This has been my absolute favorite RUclips content.
Kind words!!
All car lovers love the Porsche 911 and your channel is growing. Congratulations on completing this car. I hope your next project is a Porsche.✌🏻👍🏻
I'm hoping for an e34 BMW! ;)
I’m hoping he sticks to these two cars for a bit. Upgrading turbos, tuning it, and really dialing them, maybe one can be track and the other daily?
One of them will be getting power upgrades for sure! The other will be leaving ....
The license plate was hysterical. Every part you installed was a struggle. I've been there, my car fights me every time. Got to go work on it when I get home today, it'll be a fight I'm sure.
They always fight back lol
Yeah. It’s awesome to watch someone remove their bumper 4 times. Top tier entertainment here.
For next time: If you have a steam wand/cleaner, use that to remove the tint. It makes even the most crusty tint peel without any adhesive left behind.
Love it. Also love the wheels you have on it, those are some of my favorite porsche wheels. If you want to go aftermarket, maybe some RUF wheels?
Not gonna lie I didn’t like the gray at first but seeing it all together it’s looks amazing good job!
OMG, HOOD STRUTS!!! HOOD STRUTS!!!! YES, LETS GO!!
Finally!!
Making mistakes is easy, owning up to it is the hard part. You keep it real, Respect Matt! amazing content!
Appreciate it!
Your videos are very motivating I really do appreciate your videos!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾
Keep up the great content Matt!
keep up the great work!!
What an amazing job! Looks absolutely stunning. Great job my friend.
The side skirts look good with the dye but I have used LITHIUM AUTO CARE Trim Serum - Trim Restorer and it works great. It was designed to bring the oil back to the top without needing dye.
Looking mint Matt! Love it! I’d spray those turbo wheels in black they would look awesome with crayon, have the same on my white Cayman!
Looking so good. Very excited to see the final product and that first drive. That being said... Maybeeeee spray paint those black washers with Japanese writing on them?
Sideskirts are fine as-is. They're going to get beat up anyway, so no point installing expensive carbon fiber ones.
Hi Matt! (As always) Damn man I love your porsche content!
Wow the car is looking amazing well done Matt.
Russell 🇬🇧
Getting so close to being done. It looks amazing!!
Great work Matt.The 997 looks epic. Hope you keep the stock wheels.Cheers 👍
Steam is the answer to tint and really all adhesive work. A cheap steamer will get you much further than a heat gun... although it is never fun
The side skirts look great and that turtle wax black finish is a very good inexpensive fix that looks and works good. You will have to re-coat them in about a year depending on weather and usage.
Much respect from Gordons Bay, South Africa
That was a great one Matt. Cannot wait for the finally finished machine!
Looking good! Keep it up. Macan wheel and head unit.
I can't wait for the build breakdown, buying a wrecked one and restoring it I'm pretty sure is my only hope in justifying a Porsche purchase to the wife 😆
Get a 987.2 or 981 Cayman S or Boxster S. Great motors withough the IMS or bore scoring.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Dude, such a great view to see the progress in this video. Keep it up Matt
Great work!! stoked to se more progress
Awesome work with this and your other builds - kudos! Move down here with us in Texas - any part of Texas - and you'll be the BIGGEST fan of window tint, my friend ;o)
I'm sure of that lol
"My rivets pull out but I don't...." - oh that is GOLD!! Hah!!!
First one to notice!!! Ahahaha
The car is looking great! One thing... don't leave the jump pack in your trunk if your 996 has the electronic trunk pop like mine. If your battery is dead, you won't be able to easily get to the jump pack. Ask me how I know this....
Hrm. Where's a good storage location?
I've had really good luck with the turtle wax trim dye. I found rubbing alcohol works well to prepare the tri before the application.
Congratulations on the car and the series, it's been really fun to watch so far
Car is looking good. You are doing a great job.
New tattoo Matt? Car is looking good brother. Those side skirts take a beating, but painted and PPFd they visually lower the car.
I got it a few months ago.
The 997 looks great your work ethic is impressive please don’t do anything weird with the wheels 🛞 like your truck 😂
I'm putting my truck wheels on the Porsche lol
Man she is looking beautiful!
It it was easy, anyone could do it. 👍
Looks great, stoked for the final reveal 😎 ( and maybe wheels?? 🤔)
Wheel yes
The content it is awesome, I am looking for a porsche myself. I am looking forward to your next video. Your videos are one the best out there.
Awesome, thank you!
The car is looking really good!
Great videos man, keep it up!
the license plate debacle is so relatable
I use a steamer to clean plastic.🇨🇦
19:58 🤣but in the next clip you still had the broom stick in your hand, D'oh!
Stupid editor!! It's me I'm him lol
Matt, how about addressing the elephant in the room and doing an episode on girlfriend/wife/significant other strategies when it comes to spends and time? You appear to have it nailed. 😀
Oh boy I do NOT have that nailed lol
for sure replace the side skirts
Side skirts are beautiful bro
Amazing WORK ❤️ 👍🏼
Great job Matt. So close bro
Wing and Rims. Waiting!!!!
almost done matt, we see the end ;)
Cars looking great
Matt that’s my dream car
Looks killer dude!
U are the man 👌🏻💪🏻🇸🇪💯
Looking great!
Seriously great job Matt bring this Porsche back to life. It just looks great 👍🏻
Please Matt….throw some gold BBS LM wheels on that bad boy. It would look so minty 👌
Looking goooooood👍🏻
Great work Matt
awesome. job
Great work!!!
Ok that was funny those first 10 mins lol 🎉keep it going!
Looking 👍
It’s really coming together! And what a great platform, 997 Turbo (albeit I might be biased 😊)
Check out GT2/GT3 sideskirts. Subtle difference but I think they HUGELY add to the look of the car.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍🏻
Wow 😲
👍🇦🇺
Can yoyhelp me with mine,where do you located
Can’t wait to see what the Markski tune does to wake up this amazing car
Where did you source the body screws you referred to in the video?
Here you go amzn.to/45CuXkk
Hello Matt. I missed a few videos because I was Overseas with the Military, and we all know what's happening with that, lol. Anyway, Matt, you are ploughing on with the fantastic work. The license plate was so funny, time-lapse, lol 😅. Brilliant video again, Matt. 💯👏👏 🇮🇪
Thanks so much!
Thanks Matt, You work so harf making your content! I really enjoy you; keep up the great work... How about doing a trashed 993?
Hey Matt, I just used that trim restorer on my GT500 and I thought you should know any low or high PH chemical will strip that trim restorer. I put mine on about 5 weeks ago and I’d say it’s around 60%. Definitely a good product compared to alternative measures, however, painting for me has been a good full 12month option. Awesome seeing your channel grow.
lol - Stealth license mode
💯
Still kickin ass Matt
Great videos!
So you have one how you remove and install the rubber/alumimum molding on the rear window?
Need to remove mine and don’t know how. Read very important not to drop riverts inside fender.
Coming along very nicely. Doesn't look like there is much to do, however we know by now that you will never finish, instead you just keep improving everything.
Gt3 t-shirt 👕 go fund me should be a thing to be fair it’s what we all want & need….
Car looks mint thank you for the 997 content really enjoyed it 👍👍🙏🇬🇧
Great progress in this video! Excited for the next one
Mini Split in the garage !! I did it, game changer for sure
Actually my garage stays about the same temp as the house.
You are an animal bro!!! Already wondering what your next project will be.
some proper content
New one coming tomorrow
I really, really look forward to your videos. Well done on everything you have done thus far and here's to more great content in the future. Thank you for doing what you do! From Australia.
Look at getting 997 gt2 side skirts and paint to match body colour. One of my first mods and still favorite
