This is a rare opportunity to own a unique Porsche 914 conversion. This is a solid 1974 Porsche 914 with rotary conversion. Car sounds and runs great. Car has 200hp and weighs only 2000lbs giving this car weight-to-power ratio of 10:1! The wankel rotary 13B Street Ported engine was professionally rebuilt, installed, and tuned. Over $11k spent on this conversion. The whole car was completely strippped, rust prepped and repainted. This car was meant to be street driven as well as on the track. Very fast and powerful. Very agile as well with tight steering. KYB Shocks with 200lb springs in rear. The rotary sound coming out of the porsche muffler sounds amazing. Car feels very tight on the road as well.

This is the short list of things done to the car:
The power comes from a Mazda rotary 13B engine that was built up by Atkins Rotary Specialists in Puyallup, WA. The engine has a street port intake and stock exhaust port. The engine produces exactly 200 hp with a Weber SP 50 side-draft carb and Racingbeat intake manifold & custom exhaust header that runs into a SS 930 muffler. The car was completely gutted and what little signs of surface rust have been sandblasted, acid treated and sealed with Metal-Loc primer. This was a Southern Nevada car so it was not rusty, and even the battery tray area was still intact. The drivers compartment and engine bay/rear suspension has been reinforced with 1.5" x .120" roll bar tubing. Then the interior/ engine bay / trunk were sprayed with epoxy bed liner. The exterior was sprayed with SEM Hot-Rod Black and Centari Spitfire Orange both in a matte finish. The bottom pan, front compartment and wheel wells are in original condition, except for the addition of a massive Afco aluminum radiator in the nose.

This is a very clean car. The interior was re-upholstered to near original. All the mechanical bushings, guides, cables, and brake components have been replaced. The transmission has been torn down and gone through, all syncros and gears are in good shape. Essentially everything to operate the car has been replaced or rebuilt with new parts.

Recent Tune-up including new spark plugs, new fuel pump, fuel regulator, fuel pressure gauge, carburetor fully rebuilt and cleaned and jetted. All new bushings in the entire shifter linkage system. Car shifts great in all gears. Steering is very tight and nice.

Car is not perfect it needs some minor things such as: Turn signals are not working although the flasher button works, possibly the switch went bad on steering column. The windshield wipers sometimes work, steering column switch probably the culprit.The horn does not work. The windshield has a couple of chips in glass. The paint is not perfect, and there are two spots that the paint flaked off (see pics). I have new weather seals for the targa top, ready to be installed.

Title on hand. Anyone is welcomed to come see the car in person and inspect.

Porsche Macan caught completely uncovered

Wed, 31 Jul 2013

Porsche is preparing to launch its sub-Cayenne CUV, with a suspected debut at the 2013 Los Angeles International Auto Show, which means we're right about at the point where undisguised models start scampering around the cities and towns of Germany. Our spy photographers snagged just such a model, with only the headlights and taillights concealed by camouflage (no, those comically large lamps aren't a production item).
The undisguised car looks like a tiny Cayenne. Not really surprising, we know, but it's impressive to see how the Cayenne's styling works with the smaller proportions of the Macan. It looks squat, athletic and poised, like it's a small, "sporty" crossover we'd actually want to drive. Both the Macan and the Macan Turbo are shown, with the more powerful model sporting a set of quad exhausts.
The only big questions now concern the shape of the lights and the interior. From the photos, we can see a rough outline of the headlights, although the taillights are more difficult to discern. The interior remains a mystery.

Porsche releases new images of LMP1 racecar

Mon, 26 Aug 2013

Porsche has released another batch of images of its LMP1 competitor preparing for its debut season in 2014. This isn't the first we've seen of the new car, as June saw four images of the new racer undergoing testing. Where those images looked merely like someone taking pics during the test, the 11 new images seen above have all the hallmarks of highly polished PR shots.
That aside, the camo-covered cars still provide another look at what the new LMP1 car will look like when it arrives next season. The taillights follow the example set by Audi, by vertically mounting ultra-thin LEDs on the tips of the rear wing, while the LED headlights sport the four-prong look that Porsche has been pushing of late. Besides those two items, its difficult to make out many details due to the amount of camo.
Porsche's LMP1 effort will be focused on the FIA World Endurance Championship, which will see the revered brand return to the top flights of the 24 Hours Of Le Mans with F1 ace Mark Webber behind the wheel. As we've mentioned before, the German brand has set up a dedicated microsite that will cover its newest racer's progress.

Watch the Porsche 911 GT3 RS become Lego reality

Tue, Jun 14 2016

Lego might be a child's toy, but it enjoys a large following among adults. This has bred highly advanced, detailed creations, some of which take hours to build. Like the Porsche 911 GT3 RS Technic kit. The 2,704-piece kit's detail is remarkable. But the sheer array of parts doesn't really explain how long it takes to put together. For one, Brick Builder's 25-minute video, embedded above, is a time lapse. Yes, a 25-minute time lapse. It shows an assembly guide with 856 individual steps that looks like it's about two inches thick. There are less detailed owner's manuals. The video itself is mesmerizing. Watching each individual part come together into recognizable components is just like watching an actual car being assembled, only it's plastic instead of metal. In fact, guessing what the components will become is a big part of the fun. If you just want to see the body come together, you'll want to fast forward to segment three, around the 16-minute mark.
