    Hey Frank. I'm modding a US WTL and started down the same path of making it reversible but I'm losing faith about the point in doing that. Do you think we'll be able to drive these freely in 10 to 15 years time? Have converted to 2wd with a 993 trans, suspension brakes and wheels next. Do you have any experience with the Tractive coil-overs?

    Nice visuals with a backdrop of beautiful Porsche. I admire Frank's passion but after 10 mins found myself focusing on the one downside....when you have someone who talks that much and at a very strong pace it would be so much more enjoyable if he could slow down a bit, lose a bunch of the 'umms' and introduce intonation, just too monotone for me to enjoy this as I wanted to. Watch Chris Harris.

    At 6:30 you stated that 1989 was the only year that came with the G50. Are you specifically speaking of European Turbo variants? The reason I ask is because my US Spec 1987 has a G50....but it's only a Carrera. Totally different animal, but this would be an interesting tidbit that I didn't know. Thanks.

      He’s referring to the overall look matching a specific aesthetic, not the engineering or basic design of the sheds. As he goes in-depth explaining what he’s talking about, he’s discussing the electrical being surface-mounted, the color of the steel and other such surface treatments. Not that I really needed to expound, but this whole video is one big pedantic exercise so there you are.
