So i want an AWD 911, but they all cost around 80 grand here.
There are some RWD ones, for about 30 grand.
Is it possible to transplant AWD parts from a turbo into the chassis, or are there fundamental differences that will make this impossible?
I know it's a bit of a broad question, but i guess i'm just asking if it's possible to get one as a project and work on it over time, or if i should just save up and buy an existing AWD one.
You'll end up back at 80k.

I figure this, but i would still have my dream car in the meantime to work on slowly, which would be fun.
As long as it's not going to end up at like 200k in the end.
Does shit fit in easy, or is it a ton of fabrication work?

It'll fit. And 80k is exaggerated. It'll be expensive and kind of dumb, but go for it.

where are you? why not just look around for a carrera 4s. Its not a turbo, is awd.
Why do you want a awd 911 if it isn't a turbo?
AWD was and is a sinful meme for that chassis. The 911 should always and forever be RR.
And besides for the cost of converting to AWD or buying an AWD, you could spend that money elsewhere on a 911 and get much better results in laptime. To be honest however, the thing that makes a 911 faster is the driver, so the most prudent thing would be to spend that money on learning to drive RR layout at it's limits.

if you have to ask you can't do it. if you undertake something like this you should be able to fab anything necessary.
Where do you live that you can't find an AWD 911 for less than $80k? Are you limiting yourself to a specific generation? Your AWD price puts you in 991.1 territory whereas your RWD price puts you in 996, possibly high-milage 997.1 territory.
