Any advise ?
I want to build up a special Esprit now. Chassis ans gear box of an 90 Esprit SE, engine of an 95 S4 Turbo, Porsche brakes and 79 S2 body on top. Is there anybody out there who can give me a reason that this is not gonna work ? Or any advise how it will work ? Thank you all for your help.

If you want the look of an S2, then leave it at that. There's no point having different chassis and engine, never mind the cost.
There are many places offering better brake kit for the G shapes like www.pnmengineering ask for Pete. He is also building a race car using a Stevens shape roughly about 400BHP+
He is also rebuiling two G shape esprits, ones a fire damaged one the other a complete chassis up rebuild.
Details should be on his site.
As for performance enhancements with the G shape, Pete can sort out most of your needs to suit your pocket.

Cheers,
