Oh, how she purrs! Passing cars on interstate like they’re standing still. And so sleek! I appreciate the work you put into this video. Nice to see you again.😊👍
Buen trabajo, lo mas importante es que TE estas entreteniendo con lo que amas.
I always enjoy your creative videos.
Such an inspiration! I have a 62 bus and I’m really wanting to do this same swap!
In 1969 when I was in the Navy at Pensacola, Fl, I painted one of those VW buses a bright yellow for a hippie friend. Actually, I really liked his bus. To show his appreciation, he drove me to the beach and treated me to lunch. After lunch, we spent 4 hours watching silent surf board movies. The seafood was great but the movies sucked!
I’m putting same but non turbo. Turbo is nice but considering it’s a bus and they don’t corner, not sure the extra power is worth the work. A Cool novelty. Plus here wrx very exey here. You sound like u know your doing so I’ll check your other vids. Great job.
Nice bus.
cool...txs for sharing
Man.... I need that on my 71 Westy...
I'm totally doing this. I've watched your other videos and if I can find a decent van shell this isn't too expensive of a build. Where did you get your engine? Is it a JDM motor?
Where did you put the gas tank?
Sounds nice! Looks fast! Must be somewhere in Florida?
Sound is not VW ! No Porsche ....
Subarus the oil seals for the turbo will go bad that’s common for burning oil, valve stem seals, and piston rings
What did you do with your old VW motor and parts? I could always use spares
Enjoy your videos...how did you deal with the electrics in a converting from none computer to todays complexity
I am using a programmable Links ecu computer
Please share where you get your motors, would like to do this to my ‘73 type 2
if there's another Vee-Dub where the Subaru 2.5Flat-4 Twin Turbo 300hp STi motor fits best?
....... it's none other than the venerable Karmann Ghia😎🚗
It looks like you removed the gear reduction units?
Where did you relocate the gas tank too? 🤷🏻♂️
When you install the Subaru engine do you lose the availability of using the heat inside the car?
What happen to your Log Cabin building?
Hi Jonathan, what's stopping you? Disc or drum front end? I have subie conversion with discs upfront and on the rear. Makes a huge difference. Great videos as always mate. Regards Jonathan
Oh for sure i put disk brakes on yrs ago. When i first got the bus. Always a good idea :)
Oh hey i have seen your videos :) good stuff :)
Long time no see Jonathan, glad to see you pressing the red button. Stay safe m8
What about brakes? HOW DO YOU STOP THE 300 HP.?
How do you like the 227 ? Not as good as the first turbo ? Think I just have to get it off the engine hoist and get it in the split...who wants to top out at 50 mph ?
Yip the sti motor was cleaner looking , nicer valve covers. I will put it back in eventually :)
