Anyone want a widebody 951?

"245x45x17 and 315x30x17"
HA. Understeer much? That's about the right ratio of front to rear tire for a rear-engined car... aka real Porsches.

I'm thinking LS1. There's got to be room in there for that lump.

hell, the stock 4 pot is a tight fit.

dang!

I like the widebody aspect, but the front end looks like an abortion after a 300zx raped a Prelude.

hahahahaha its so true

Hot Car.

The 2.5L 4 cylinder can handle quite a bit of abuse/boost .... any engine you choose, you've got the flares to fit in massive rubber, a transaxle in the back which keeps a good F/R balance, and a much lower CG than an E30.

A built 951 can be an insanely quick car. Me personally, if I'm spending Porsche aftermarket part prices, I'd prefer the engine behind me.....

Regardless, looks like a good price if the chassis is straight.

Toad is smart. Much more so than his predecessor who had an affinity for fast cars and crashing them... TOOT TOOT!

Predecessor? You mean my contemporary? ;)

EW. What an ugly fucking bodykit. Porsche must be rolling in his grave. Distasteful.

Indeed the balance is very good. Here we've got a 951 racer, also widebody, and the handling is awesome. Gt3's are having a hard time keeping it behind, untill you come onto the strait and they have more power. Here's some pictures :
