A VW motor in a Porsche ....hmmmm. Porsches with blown motors are cheap (and readily available from the UK). This would be very interesting.



A POSSE AD ESSE.

I live in my own little world, but it's okay, they know me here.

I have an old hot 4's magazine that has a porsche 911 with a 13B turbo (or maybe it was a 12A?) rotary in it. I almost cried... :puke

When I took my Baja to the department of transport to have the engine number changed, one of them heard it and said "does that have a porsche motor in it". I said "no, it has a Mazda V6 with more power and reliability". He then told me how they used to put porsche motors in them and how my engine sounds exactly like a porsche motor... :duh

isn't your V6 just the 928 V8 with 2 cylinders sawn off? :P

but seriously, they might sound a bit similar.

I know the rotary porsche your speak of too. I thought the same thing at the time.

But if you wanna see what makes me really annoyed, it this....

BTW, it's one of many.:puke

And another one for all the porsche purists...NOT!

Although I have to say, this looks very well done. :smirk:

And there's not much porsche left to be a purist about either ;)
