I know we have emailed each other and I know you are busy but I’m still wanting you to get my 911 going. Everything is ready to transport to you, motor is built, car is beautifully prepared. I have a lot of track days coming up this year and I am willing to pay you a lot to just do the swap and tuning.
I love the brappy sound of the Kseries in the Porsche. I also love the dedication to these projects/products! Well done!
Your silver car sounds rlly rlly good tbh.
I love this project, please keep making it. Nice to see you working on the car too, that was so easy to lower the engine. 👍🏻
Hope you can show us start to finish how to get a K swap into one of these Porsches, to give anyone confidence on how to do it from your garage.
I think the plumbing and wiring would be the most challenging, the mechanical part would be the easiest for me.
This is a project I would love to do someday, if I can find a cheap 997 manual too with a blown engine. 😊
100% agree, 997 are still crazy money!!! One day..... 🤞😎
Love the sound of the turbo K
an awd k swapped 997 sounds amazing.
Thanks for sharing the sparkplug change. Very impressed that you have thought through the processes. I can't wait to see your kits hit the market as it's going to be huge for us that don't like the Porsche tax and love Honda reliability.
YES MORE!
I will always appreciate someone, that takes his time bringing a quality product to market instead of rushing things to ride a hype train.
I really hope you are the "Renegade Motors" of K swaps 💪
great job
Sounds great!
Would love to see you running laps at the freedom factory 😊😊
Awesome job nick!!!
really is so well thought out ,,, very neat and tidy.
Great video. You got me thinking.
Nick once again thank you for these engineering marvels! And the in-depth review! Thanks!
Your 997 sounds great! Keep up the great work.
Yes!
K sounds really nice in there. Good video showing the ease of lowering, being new to porsche it takes a bit to wrap your brain around engine removal or lowering but I think with quick disconnect coolant fittings, etc it might be cool to make the engine so modular it only takes a 1-2 hours to have it on the ground, imagine working on it then, super cool! I am interested in a V8 swap but I keep checking on this one! The cayman with K and honda trans is SICK! That will be the max fun car for sure!
i love the sound of that turbo k!!!!!🤌🤌🤌
Happy New Years Nick! 👍🏻 glad to see you back, I watched the speed academy episode was awesome 👏
Favorite car with my favorite engine
Awesome video Nick! I'm eagerly waiting for this kit to come available. Would also be interested in a tune after the fact. Keep up the great work !
Can't wait for my Porsche engine to blow so I can buy your kit!
Love what you're doing @Tuning by Nick !
Looking fwd to finding a 997 on its deathbed so I can do this swap :)
I recently sold my K-swapped Exocet, and look forward to K-swapping a 997 Porsche soon!
Might be an outlier but I think the turbo honda noise fits the car better. Esp since the exhaust is short and it doesn't really sound like what it is.
That transition at 1:20 was sick…
I'm hyped for the k986. You need to finish before my tired engine gives up.
I feel that. My 987 has already gone.
woohoo!
Hey Nick! Great video as always! I appreciate the care into serviceability. Any early idea how the top of the engine lines up in the Cayman?
Bore scoring ?? Do these kits fit a 997.2? Great work!
I'd love a 986 Boxster K swap with DSG. Would be a street weapon for under $40K all in
PDK 😊
@@jmsterdam well it wouldn’t be a Porsche transmission technically, although it would be IN a Porsche haha
You talk about how your original valve cover all the modifications had to do it to make prevent it from leaking you should test the production model, so you can get some actual results on it as well. That’ll be nice to see a video on that.
Hi hope your good I know swapped my 88 Merkur using bmw 8 speed transmission worlds only
Do you sell valve covers
Are you planning on using the MK6 DQ250? What TCU?
the K20Z1 in my 06 RSX-S has 180k miles and it does burn oil but the car runs absolutely perfect. Common issues that I can look at to fix the oil burning issues?
How different is it to use a k24à motor,as in the uk we can only get the k24a not the k24z motors, i know that the throttle is run on a cable on the a motor
I am definitely interested in the kit I have a 997.1 that has bore scoring slightly and I am looking at my options on engine swap. I’d like to know what the complete cost of a kit is and what is included
Give motoiq a call as well
One question I have is will the 911 kit fit a K20 as well.
Can we do a kswap using the original dct and a donor 997.2 911? Or is it only for the manual 997.1 911s?
Would you need that valve cover for a k20?
Hey Nick, I was wondering how much does the engine weigh with the K vs the original engine? Is it significantly lighter now? Does the weight distribution change in the car?
Your K997 sounds great! I like it more than the stock car, I don’t know who said it doesn’t sound good 🤷🏼♂️
I have a video with the weight difference - ruclips.net/video/nGzaLvBZtjE/видео.htmlsi=wWVyCYc_3JB1MEVC
About 160lbs. 😮
do you want to do any builds with the ford voodoo engine?
Tuning by nick 2 question for you sir ! Where is your shop located and do you do e tuning too ?
How much boost are you running on the Silver K24 Porsche?
Porsche wants you to take stuff off. So for spark plugs you take off the rear bumper cover, some heat shields, the rear wheels, etc. Then you have a straight shot at them. First time I did them on my 996 Turbo it took me maybe 3 hours. Second time took me a little over half that.
How are these swaps going to pass emissions with a Link ECU? What about all the fuel evap, charcoal canister stuff? That has to follow the engine, so be the Honda stuff, not the Porsche stuff. Or are these swaps only for areas that don't do emissions testing or these are track only cars?
Can you build me a K996/7? There is a YTC that has a K997/6 sawp with an access panel.
Do you just use a Porsche clutch kit with the Kennedy adaoter?
Don't forget the 996 guys
Yes, currently we utilize the Kennedy Engineering adapter. Don't worry, we are working on the 996 😉
Finally these 😂vw bugs a get a new chance at life
Unfortunately, I live in the restrictive and horrible state of California. Curious if you plans to make kits to be CA emissions compliant? 🙏🏽
Crazy how these Porsches just wanna be sone civics 😂
Very cool build, but it’s misleading saying it took you 4 hours to do coils on a stock car and 45 minutes on the K swap. I think it’s a fair assumption to say you have thousands more hours of experience working with the K swap in that engine bay than your relative 0 hours of experience when you first did coils.
911 GTK...not K997 lol or Carrera K
