behind the wheel editor s letter w thinking about an old porker e ve been having some heated discussions about the next project car to build for the magazine now that 2.slow is effectively completed although more mods may follow we wanted to replace it with another budget build one of the recurring ideas is an old porsche 911 possibly a 964 or 993 with so much being interchangeable on the different 911 models it s relatively easy to update an older model with modern exterior panels and running gear the reason we haven t dived in with both feet is because we re worried these older porsches or any porsche come to that could be a money-pit and while we can pull favors from friends and acquaintances to keep a car on the road and modify it is this something the average reader could do on the other hand nearly every vw owner i ve ever met hankers after a 911 so it would be a great project to show people some of the pitfalls to help us decide we ve chosen to do two things the first was to track down the awesome rwb porsches from japan as seen on this month s cover for any euro owner anybody with oil in their veins this is about as good as it gets old-school 911s built like the race cars of their day painted in modern colors decked out with modern wheels but everything is then left slightly unfinished to give the cars an instant patina extra character hopefully you re like all of us who simply drool puddles of saliva whenever we see these cars our first encounter was at the tokyo auto salon last year but since then they ve been appearing in magazines and online regularly inspiring us to dig a little deeper the problem with contacting rwb is the lack of communication the owner speaks no english and doesn t seem too bothered about whether or not people know about his cars and somehow this just makes it even cooler as a result there are tons of photos of the cars but very little is really known about the company and its products hopefully we ve been able to add another piece to the jigsaw and a snippet to the body of information about this incredible company the second part of our voyage of 911 discovery is to have a 993 owner confess the reality of owning and modifying an older porsche while we imagine it s all about canyon roads and giggling girls the reality appears to be slightly different frequent and expensive maintenance appears to be the biggest obstacle to 911 ownership so we ve commissioned a story to expose the underbelly of the daily experience that story will follow in a few months the car needs some work before we can photograph it heresy speaking of the japanese we should apologize for the e-shift story in this issue in case you haven t got there yet it s about a company that drops japanese engines into perfectly fine german automobiles again we debated the merits of this story for months finally deciding it was a relevant piece on the basis of its cheap tuning options and low-cost maintenance certainly one of the regular complaints from bmw owners is that it s relatively expensive to tune their cars beyond the regular software exhaust and intake and while we re hoping there isn t a huge rush of bmw owners wanting to transplant toyota engines into their cars it is an interesting option that can reach 500-600hp relatively easily with 800hp possible on a stock block so while the story will inevitably upset some bmw purists understand that we were as dubious about it as anybody else but we felt it was something the wider euro community might like to know about like to help out wherever we can in the past we ve given away a number of performance products to some lucky readers and this month we ve got another great prize for one of you thanks to the generosity of tsw wheels we re offering a set of its forged nurburgring wheels to one of you it s our experience that most people don t bother entering because they don t think they stand a chance as a result you d be surprised at how relatively few people bother to enter magazine competitions in general fortunately ours are well subscribed but your chances of winning are still very high and with this particular competition the first 200 entrants get a tsw t-shirt as well just to encourage your participation entry is very easy you simply have to identify eight racetracks from the maps that are provided i won t tell you how to find them but they may also be the name of some tsw wheels vidz as always you ll find a host of exclusive online videos at both eurotuner.com or youtube.com/eurotuner this month we have footage from the brembo brake install on our project m3 as well as from the dyno session for the vw cc where we installed an intake and exhaust finally sam got some video form the continental tire test he attended in germany so take a look when you re online it s all there and most of it is in glorious hd we update both our website and youtube channel on a weekly and sometimes daily basis whenever possible so why not subscribe and we ll alert you to any new videos online you should also check out eurotuner.com for daily euro news stories event listings desktop wallpapers etc tiger since we know it s difficult for everybody to
