Few builds capture the imagination quite like an unconventional engine swap. One standout from the Mahdavi Motorsports archives is the audacious project that saw a classic Porsche transformed with a Subaru engine swap. This unique build blends the precision engineering of German automotive design with the robust, rally-bred performance of a Subaru powerplant.
The project began with a vision to combine the best of both worlds: the timeless aesthetics and handling of a Porsche with the reliable, high-revving prowess of a Subaru engine. The team meticulously integrated the Subaru engine, ensuring it not only fit seamlessly but also maintained the balance and performance characteristics Porsche enthusiasts cherish.
Every detail of this build was handled with the trademark Mahdavi attention to detail. Custom mounts, bespoke wiring, and a fine-tuned ECU were just a few of the modifications necessary to bring this vision to life. The result is a car that offers a thrilling driving experience, blending the iconic feel of a Porsche with the unique, turbocharged punch of a Subaru engine.
This project is a testament to Mahdavi Motorsports’ innovative spirit and technical expertise, showcasing their ability to push the boundaries of conventional car building. The Porsche-Subaru hybrid remains a highlight of the Mahdavi Motorsports archive, celebrating the boldness and creativity that define the company’s legacy.
