IF YOU ARE INTERESTED EMAIL ME AT: katelinvolle@juno.com .
It started out as a clean, rust free 70k original mile 1976 912E and it went crazy from there. the car puts out 707hp to the wheels on 18 lbs of boost and at a very conservative 12 lbs it puts out 498 rwhp on pump gas. there is a fuel cell up front running dual fuel pumps
The car has a fiberglass 993 turbo wide body kit painted seal grey. Looks great. the front lip and driver door jamb have a couple of little spots that need a little attention but otherwise it looks great. the sunroof open and closes but it does not pop up at the very end when it closes. the car also has a/c which needs a charge.
the wheels are BBS E26's 17x 9&12's with brand new toyo R888 in 235/45 and 315/35 sizes.
the motor started out as a 3.2 and is now a 3.4, single Turbonetics turbo, twin plug, custom equal length headers with borla muffler, custom intake made from a 3.2 intake, Tech3 engine management, pauter rods, cams, stainless ring head seals, huge intercooler which is sealed with the decklid closed for optimal cooling. the engine hunts for idle when cold but once it warms up it smooths out. engine has low miles since built as it hasn't been driven much over the past few years.
the transmission is a reinforced 993 6 speed that shifts perfect. the pedal cluster was changed out to a late 80's carrera for the hydraulic clutch.
there are 2 oil coolers up front. one in the stock location and another in the front dam.
the front suspension has bilstein coilovers, 993 brakes, brake cooling kit, through the body sway bar
the rear suspension has adjustable sway bar, bilstein 964 cup coilovers, 930 trailing arms, 930 brakes
car has a roll bar with some pretty hefty cross bracing with 5 point harnesses
i'm sure i'm leaving out a bunch of stuff. all top notch components used in this build

2013 Porsche 911 RSR makes official debut
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Porsche is ready to go racing in 2013, showing off a new 911 RSR today that is scheduled to compete in several endurance events this year. Based on the current 991 911, the new RSR will compete in the 2013 season of the World Endurance Championship and the 24 Hours of Le Mans. It will not, however, make an appearance in a North American racing series this year.
The 2013 version of the racecar has increased in wheelbase by some four inches, features a new wishbone front suspension in place of the last-generation's McPherson strut setup and boasts a new, lightweight six-speed racing gearbox. The engine, meanwhile, is an "optimized" version of last year's car, a 460-horsepower 4.0-liter boxer six-cylinder. Extensive use of carbon fiber and polycarbonate windows help the RSR shed weight, and Porsche has also balanced the weight more evenly with a lower center of gravity.
Porsche has thoughtfully dedicated some space to celebrate the 911's 50th Anniversary, with the number 50 clearly visible in the top-down view of the RSR, as well as along the doors. Scroll down to read the full Porsche press release, below.
Porsche resurrects V8-powered 911 prototype from the Eighties
Wed, 14 May 2014These days, we take it for granted that the Porsche 911 uses a flat-six engine. That's because every version of the iconic rear-engined sports car has had one. Right? Well, for the most part. There was the 912 that joined the original in the late Sixties with a flat-four. And in the mid-Eighties, Porsche toyed around with the idea of a V8-powered 911.
After the first-generation 911 had been in production for over two decades, Porsche began development of its successor, the 964, in the 1980s. And one of its ideas was to use a V8 engine. So it took a 964, borrowed a V8 from Audi, gave it the rear bodywork from a 959 and dubbed it the 965.
The idea was to create a more affordable successor to the 959 that included its advanced all-wheel drive system and active suspension. The Audi V8 would have been replaced with one of Porsche's own design - possibly based on the it had built for Indy racing - but Dr. Ulrich Bez (who was then head of Porsche R&D long before taking the reins at Aston Martin) ultimately killed the project.
Can a Corvette really be compared to a 911 with options costing more than the Chevy?
Wed, 29 Jan 2014In this latest video from Drive, Chris Harris asks straight away, "Can you still compare a base Corvette to a Porsche Carerra?" That's an particularly interesting question in this film, as the 911 in question is a 400-horsepower Carrera S model that's been fitted with $60,000 in options. Base price of a Corvette Stingray? $51,995. Harris' tester features an automatic and some other goodies that push it right up to that $60,000 range. So yes, the options on the Porsche cost as much as this entire 460-hp Chevrolet.
Harris stresses that this isn't a full review, but he does exercise both cars in a more composed manner before reverting to his traditionally exuberant driving style. The impressions are, as always, spot on, with Harris favoring the pointy nature and V8 power of the Stingray, while enjoying the gearbox (Porsche's exceptional PDK transmission) and just about everything else on the 911.
Take a look below for the latest video from Drive, and let us know if you agree with Mr. Harris' views on these two sports cars.
