Giugiaro Porsche

I am working on installing an EG33 into my Porsche 914 and came across this website.
http://porsche.magma-net.pl/index.php?id=cars/tapiro
It turns out Giugaro's design studio made a design for the Porsche 914. I love the looks of the SVX, but I'm also partial to my 914. Interesting still...

that's really cool, you can definitely see how the Delorean came to be among others, that wedge front end is sexy for sure!

Look up the membername KCPaz, he put an eg33 into a 70's 911 s/c, he can probably point you in the right direction as far as tips dealing with how to get the engine in there. He's also a real talent at fab work, definitely look him up

Yes that is a classic. ItalDesign is know for their outlandish Porsche concepts and some actually look quite nice.

Building yourself a homebrew "914-6" eh??? That'll be a fun fun car when it's all together. Couple guys here in the area running 914's with some wild flat sixes. Couple 3.3 turbo's, some 3.6L, one 2.8l short stroke MFI that just screams. Some with WRX motors. So much you can do with that platform, and do it on the cheap too.

Nice timeless Porsches

I'm gonna guess guigario has a split window fetish of some sort

Though I gotta say, he got the lines, size, and proportions for such PERFECTED on the svx. nearly all other split window designs look slightly awkward, unusable, or clunky
