Hello everyone
Been planning for this backdate project and engine rebuild for the past year, Finally starting this project on June 8th, 2014.The car is a 1984 porsche 3.2 Carrera with 63,000KM.
The engine's top end was rebuilt less than 9,000KM by PO but its been leaking badly, so I decided to have the engine rebuilt and while-im-at-it get the bodywork done. Engine rebuild/tune up parts were order from our Host.
Body work will be done by Akira Nakai of Rauh Welt-Begrieff (
| RWB/RAUH-Welt BEGRIFF is a Porsche tuner located in Japan), Engine work & tuning will be done by Hiraoka from UZI (
UZI Porsche Tuner) previous owner of Promodet Japan. I've worked closely with both of them over the past year and they have been extremely helpful, and I consider my self lucky to have the opportunity to have met them and be able to learn from them first hand experience mechanical skills and hear of their stories.
I will be documenting the process of this project and would like to share it with you over this thread.
