1997 Porsche 993 Carrera 2 Coupe - 3.8L
/ 6 Speed 3.8L RS touring style engine
built to maximize reliability, street drivability with pump 91-Octane
fuel. Easy pass emissions OBD II car. To maintain a comfortable yet
sporty drive, the flywheel and clutch assembly were updated to a RS single mass
middle weight version. The clutch and gear selection has smooth, easy
engagement with the updated G50 cross shaft update kit. Nothing was ever
left to chance with this car. Most miles from sustained highway distance
driving. Not autocrossed or beat on, just my daily driver. Everything works, regular maintenance. Beautiful flawless wheels
with great rubber. Paint in great condition but some small rock chips in front. See associated photo. Equipped with Blaupunkt radio
with Bluetooth hands free phone. Elephant Racing equipped suspension, provides
tremendous handling but feels comfortable on street. See more information about these legends in
the 911 community or visit their website.

The Von Pair-Matched
Advantage: Regardless of brand,
identically configured shocks can generate widely varying damping
forces. All shocks are built with
manufacturing tolerances that make damping forces deviate from the design
target. Despite using good designs
and precision components, the best commercial shock manufactures accept
finished product tolerances that are typically +/-15%. That means that by luck of
the draw two new, "identical", tested-good shocks picked
from the shelf could vary in damping forces by up to 30%.
Cheap shocks can be much worse! Imagine the quirky, uneven
handling caused by left and right shocks that vary by
30%. This can cause an uneasy feeling of not being planted, a hard
to quantify sensation that the car just isn't "right" despite
seemingly having all the best parts and setup. The car doesn't
inspire driver confidence, and it doesn't go fast. Worse yet is the difficulty
of diagnosing these types of problems. Without access to a
computershock dyno, the suspension tuner is left groping in the
dark. Any serious suspension tuner
absolutely must have a computer shock dyno plot for
all shocks. This simply cannot be
over-emphasized. It doesn't matter if
your shocks are brand new, or freshly custom valved, or come from the
most reputable manufacturer, or the best-known shop - you MUST have a
computer shock dyno plots for your actual shocks (not a
sample from a similarly configured shock). Without the dyno plot,
you simply have no idea of what your shocks are doing, what
irregularities they may contain or conceal. Testing - Every
single Von shock is tested on our
computer shock dyno. The dyno plot is delivered along
with the shock. We keep the dyno plot in our database to
support you going forward. This dyno plot is used as a
baseline of comparison should we ever test your shocks to analyze
wear, damage, or help you diagnose handling quirks. The dyno plot
also let's us Pair-Match your shocks. Pair-Matched - Von shocks are
built in batches, and every single shock is tested on our
computershock dyno. Using the batch's dyno plots, we hand select
pairs that have similar performance curves. The shocks are then
delivered as matched pairs. Pair-matching
allows Von shocks to deliver performance consistency that is
unrivaled. You are assured that your shocks are tested-good and
will function as a pair to deliver matching damping
performance.

RM Sotheby's Turbollection features exotics from the '80s and '90s
Wed, Aug 14 2024If you have even a passing interest in cars, there's little doubt you know a thing or two about Porsche, whether the topic centers around a classic name like 911 or the more mainstream Cayenne and Macan crossovers. Bugatti? Sure, most people know about the historic French builder of world-class, record-setting automobiles, though admittedly the EB110 we're about to show you probably wouldn't be the first to come to mind. Fewer are likely familiar with the likes of Vector Aeromotive, a tiny American company with history that dates back to the 1980s. And we'd wager that most have never even heard of the likes of Isdera and Cizeta. Brush up on your history, (super wealthy car collecting) folks. RM Sotheby's has an exciting array of cars coming up for auction during the Monterey Car Week festivities on California. Among all the expected Ferrari, Lamborghini and Shelby classics potential buyers can wade through, the so-called Turbollection collection features much rarer oddities.
Porsche acquires Kyalami race track at auction
Mon, 28 Jul 2014With more victories under its belt than any other manufacturer, you could say, in a figurative sense at least, that Porsche owns countless numbers of race tracks around the world. But here we're not talking about figuratively owning a track - we're talking about literally buying one. And Porsche has just bought Kyalami.
Kylamai, for those unfamiliar, is a grand prix circuit near Johannesburg in South Africa. Between 1967 and 1985, and again in '92 and '93, it was home to the South African Grand Prix, and has since hosted a variety of local and lower-level international races, but apparently fell on hard times. As a result, the track's owners - listed as Universal Property Professionals - put it up for auction. Bidders had to deposit four million Rand (about $380k) to participate, but after just 50 seconds, the auction was over.
The winning bid was placed - via telephone from the local press launch for the Macan - by Porsche South Africa CEO Toby Venter, who bid a reported 205 million rand (about $19.5 million) to take over the complex. The German automaker's South African division reportedly intends to keep the track open for racing, but could also be expected to use the facility for testing, customer track days and such moving forward.
2015 Porsche 911 Carrera GTS [UPDATE]
Mon, Dec 1 2014UPDATE: An earlier version of this story referenced the 911's six-speed manual transmission, but of course, Porsche uses a seven-speed manual in this car. The text has been changed to reflect this. There are no fewer than 19 different models in today's Porsche 911 series. While each appeals to the enthusiast, the race-bred GT3 is the pinnacle of the automaker's rear-engined lineup. Unfortunately, and despite the GT3's racing circuit prowess, its rigid track-tuned persona is too grating for many as a daily driver. To satisfy those who put sporty driving dynamics at the top of their list, but don't want to compromise comfort, Porsche has introduced the 2015 911 Carrera GTS. Raising its performance quotient, the GTS model boasts a handful of standard features that elevate it above its Carrera S siblings. Mechanically, it features an enhanced 3.8-liter flat-six bolted into the tail of the widebody platform (shared with the Carrera 4 and GT3). Other goodies include Porsche Torque Vectoring (PTV), Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM), a black-tipped Sport exhaust system and centerlock 20-inch 911 Turbo S wheels (five-lug wheels are a no-cost option). Cosmetically, the GTS is differentiated by its darkened lights, painted black wheels, Sport Design front spoiler, Sport Design exterior mirrors, black engine grille, rear black louvers (or lights on all-wheel drive models) and a 'GTS' logo on the lower doors. Inside the cabin are standard Sport Plus seats, Alcantera upholstery throughout with contrasting stitching, black gauges and anodized black aluminum trim. Offering us an excellent opportunity to put the second-generation GTS through its paces on a variety of roads, Porsche tossed us the keys in the LA Basin and pointed us towards Willow Springs Raceway, in the Mojave Desert. Driving Notes The GTS is offered in coupe or Cabriolet body styles, each with a choice between rear- and all-wheel drive. Buyers are also offered a choice between a traditional seven-speed manual gearbox or Porsche's seven-speed dual clutch transmission (PDK). The GT3, meanwhile, is only offered as a coupe with PDK. We grabbed the keys to a Guards Red rear-wheel drive coupe with PDK for our outbound drive, and a GT Silver Metallic all-wheel drive Cabriolet with a seven-speed manual for our return trip. Finding another 30 horsepower from the naturally aspirated 3.8-liter flat-six required some old-fashioned tricks.
