tacker Posted December 16, 2007 Author Share Posted December 16, 2007 Runs a hiflow kkk turbo and is pushing out 430 ish hp at 1.2 bar, has upgraded suspension and is still quicker than most new turbos on the track have seen it at a few porsche track days. Have driven a few times now and its quite a rush with the the big single turbo on a 3.6 litre going to be a daily driver for me though Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/197740-slipped-over-to-the-dark-side/#findComment-3535356 Share on other sites More sharing options...

tacker Posted December 16, 2007 Author Share Posted December 16, 2007 Roy not quite. this old girl is a 964 and its the last of the aircooled single turbos. The 993 is the last air (or oil as they really are ) cooled engine, and they are twin turbo and is a mighty beast to boot. And nearly crapped mine too this weekend .... 3 times in fact. must say its a very raw type of power delivery whoo hoo Chuckie, yep less than 2000 world wide and only 768 LHD, one of the rarer 911 for sure. Awww say it aint so Russ! say it aint so! had a few nibbles on the 33 and its been posted in the UK as well this week i believe.

Roy Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 911, 930, 964, 993, 996, 997 ...lol only Porsche die hards know the difference. To me they are all 911s. But its the last of the rwd ones isnt it? Around 1993? So many of the old 911s getting around today with update kits/bars etc and look the part at a casual glance. Would so love a lates 70s 911, you see them around for 35k in good nic Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/197740-slipped-over-to-the-dark-side/#findComment-3535444 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whiplash Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 nice i've been spending more time around 911's lately (last weekend with a 996RSR). Turbo ones are great, speaking to a mate on the weekend who has 993's, 996 GT2 and just ordered a 997 he swears by them as both street and racing ones as the turbo engines are more reliable than the na ones as they are stressed less to make the power. as long as they are maintained properly Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/197740-slipped-over-to-the-dark-side/#findComment-3535450 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im well aware of the asking price of them....my point is there are plenty of 1978-1982 Porsches with the update kits so that a quick glance at them and yo uwoudl think they are the 964 Turbo. This has a crazy rear spoiler but gives you an idea of what i mean. Click here another one The panel beater that sprayed my old Impala did a update kit on and old Porsche, it was nicely done and very nice car. Personally i like hte late 70s 911s, though the mid 80s ones with those horrible California bars (the low speed front impact test bars) can do with the update kits Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/197740-slipped-over-to-the-dark-side/#findComment-3535472 Share on other sites More sharing options...

phunky_monkey Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 Very nice indeed mate, top choice! Looks to be in fantastic condition. Troy, the 993 GT2 was the last of the air cooled RWD 911's, with the 964 being the last of the single turbo rwd 911's.
