Seeing all of this work always makes me appreciate the mechanical wonders that cars are. So much time and effort can go into these builds and restorations. I can't imagine working on all of this stuff, let alone being the one who designs it.

Very exciting build, thanks for posting !! :) Good commentary/explanations along the video. keep up the good work ! James

I just found this video series today and I immediately fall in love with it! Thank you so much for sharing this awesome stuff!

Respect to the channel and especially the mechanic on showcase. Whenever I need a reference I'll definitely look to this channel.

Awesome series. Absolutely loving it.

The freezing and heating of the parts is not only recommended procedure; it makes the frozen, inner part to contract, and the heated, outer part to expand, so the tolerances widen A LOT, making mating them possible. Once the temperatures equalize again, the parts return to their regular sizes and are now press-fit to one another (and since they then only heat or cool together, they also stay like that).

Fascinating! Thanks for sharing this video!

amazing series!

As usual, super informative!!! Keep it up guys!!

This is so awesome to see

Loving the Porsche video series!! He's not a watch maker but hey, he did fine!

Wow.. I enjoyed your two part video..very inventive, practical, fun...as my 915 just self destroyed yesterday....sad..after 455k miles of service,,Best regards...Thank you

Never have seen that heating/freezing method before. Love seeing this stuff.

drinking game.... watch this porsche series and take a drink everytime Pete says 'look at that'..

Another great video. Just a tip for the future, A thick leather belt works pretty good between gears to lock them in place while torquing the gears down. Just fold it up to desired thickness and put it between the gears just like you guys used the aluminum. It'll eat up the belt but not the gears.

Great work

Great work, and thanks for videoing the master at work! On a side note, does anyone know what the tune in the background is?

great vid, thank you.

Tony is the bomb.

So much good, useful info in these videos. At least I'll be able to watch them back when one day, I buy my dream Porsche...

I will probably never own a Porsche, but I love watching a master craftsman work!

So much satisfaction hearing that torque wrench beep.

Loving that Mk3 Supra, makes me miss my old one.

I know this video is a few years old. I do have one suggestion that will help anyone working with tight tolerance. You saw in the video when they went to the freezer to grab part of the gear and then to the boiling water. And time was getting away from them. What I discovered many years ago and I still used to this day is can of air that you would use to blow dust out of a computer. Can you turn the can upside down and within seconds the shrinking is mediate. I always keep one part with a propane torch and then I take my air and cool down the part. The best part is that you don't have to hurry. You can always refreeze the part immediately. Instead of having to wait for it to cool down in a freezer. If you do a lot of work like this or even work on cylinder heads it's cheaper to buy it by the case. All you have to do is Google it and you can find your best price. I go back and forth from eBay to Amazon whoever is cheaper that. Great video I'm thinking about buying my first Porsche and I like to see how difficult something that I buy is to work on.

Ive said it before, hands down the best carchannel on youtube. A shame you dont get more viewers

god this is good content! keep it up boys... i learnt about anaerobic sealant a couple weeks ago when researching how to drop the pan on my Saab. i guess there's less concern when laying it on thick as the excess that makes its way into the oil won't have hardened

Tony is the "Task Master!"

@ 4:50…. we think it's always a good practice to pack the roller bearings with grease and also apply to bearing chase, then if you want to spray assembly lube then go for as well ….

Nice

the magic is you meeting lots of great friend who loves car

I enjoyed the whole series ...and your channel. I do have a question ....I have similar black 79 930 @outlaw3.4 How long - once on Tony’s bench did that take ...first bolt off last bolt on ?

That guys knows his shit!!

There's a press tool to separate the dog-ring from the gear, I've rebuilt about four 914 gearboxes and it's been a lifesaver

Hoping someone see’s this. Just picked up one of these for myself and I’m having issues w my transmission. Could you give me estimate of how much does the transmission rebuild cost.

how much did the engine and tranny rebuilt cost??

FWIW that gasket can be relatively easily reproduced. Anyone with a fiber or CO2 laser could cut some new gaskets, out of whatever material you want, in no time for you.

After going to this trouble I'm surprised you didn't replace the bearings for extra insurance.

Just a clarification only g50 and newer (MY 1987+) transmissions have one piece dog/gears. All 915 derivatives have removable dog rings getrag and Porsche sell replaceable dogs. There is also a special tool used to press the dogs off the gears so you don't have to grind them off. Each gear pair is about $1000 it's worth buying the freaking tool for $100

That mk3 supra though ;)

spellbinding seeing this porsche transmission rebuild

and look at that one more video done

Did I get it right it's got an open diff from factory?

is this guy located in California

why not putting it in a lathe and turn the synchro's off, awesome video btw

greit wen close the up whit alluminium!!

2nd april 2020... it has 911 likes!

No LSD?? I think that box comes apart again as soon as you begin using it :)

hope not to offend anyone but when your trying to remove dog teeth on 930 gear you can tig weld some tabs on the dog teeth and use a puller.

Who's maroon mk3 supra was that? 1:05

Is there a break in period after such a rebuild? Thanks.

(1)@16:00 why do you need the paper gasket? can you make one by yourself by cutting a regular paper?(2)19:30 - 19:40 what is Tony doing? Is he making marks for 2 bolts? why?

Love the video series, but that carousel music in the background is extremely distracting.

Is butter really smooth?

Is this a G50?

Fastest 21 minutes ever...

140 ft/lbs would have been LOVELY... 300+ 1/4 turn (roughly 350) for the axle nut on the 944 :( Had to go to a truck shop to get that much done.

Why does the freezing and heating thing work?

I want some gum now

These guys don't charge enough for what they do. No way in hell I could do that. I could, it just wouldn't work and most of the parts would still be on the work bench when I finished. ;)

you can make your own gasket using loctite 518. honestly it's alot better than that shitty paper.

why does the gear have to be put in the freezer? edit: probably should have just watched the rest of the video :)

No LSD? You're on LSD...

its 4:14 am :) why am i awake

great video...didn't think tony could do it .....but did we need that annoying bing bong bell music in the background....???

I would think the 930 would be a 5 speed.

I am surprised that there isn't an alternative to the Shitty Paper Gasket!

23 nov 2019 7:33 am est:thanks.11:57 show open-differential. i wonder whether open-differential use bevel-gear to connect to transmission-gear 23 nov 2019 8:35 am est: i assume bevel-gear connect transmission-gear to open-differential after watching this other movie: (1)kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jtWTfL16msfPiH0.htmlm40s (#2 Porsche 996 transmission Core Factory Limited Slip.No!

I'm disappointed Pete. All this money spent and you kept it open diff? :(''''' Shouldve opened a new loc and gotten one if u needed to. Totally worth it!

I love these videos, but the constant out of focus hurts me eyes

We have a very different method for taking off the dog teeth ring.

Still hurts my eyes and heart to see it being all rebuilt without cleaning the case and housings 100%. Or even just a basic VHT paint :(

That music is so annoying. Or is it the phone? Somebody answer that!

What the actual fuck, thats not how you remove those.

_italics_ has a porsche 997 so dislikes jk

This guy obviously has skills and has been working in his field for a long time.....but i can't stand the messy work station and nuts and bolts being put everywhere and the bashing of parts. Feels like a hack job. A clean job is a professional one.

skill tech. very dirty bench. don't like.
