Actually it's not his exactly there, just another one which is quite similar. There no pics of his, anywhere. The wheels are also different. But yeah it kinda sucks about his motor, only Porsche AG can make the pistons for him (top-secret specs in the GT2 motor), and they're taking their sweet ass time with it. He's trying to just jam in a 996 motor or something into it just to have fun driving it around, every other aspect of the car is done.

he could always get an aftermarket motor, there are some seriously retarded flat 6 builders around

He ran a porn site last I heard.

Yeah the car has been sitting in the back of a Porsche specialist here in Toronto, the motor he's making is fully built. But the only pistons that will work are made by Porsche themselves, they can't get the specs anywhere else. It should be pushing something like 600-700rwhp when it's done.

And he doesn't own a porn site, that was a joke. He does metal machining and designing stuff at a shop his family owns, don't know the exact title (engineering...). Works his ass off though, unlike what many are driven to believe.

[Rob]

only pistons that will work are made by porsche? interesting

[Mystikal]

Apparently. I don't know all the details, just know that Porsche has the specs, won't tell them, and have his pistons sitting there waiting to be finished while they work on their own motors. He can't do shit but wait.

Which one of you fucks edited my post? :x

[Rob]

wasnt me, which post?

[Brew]

I didn't realize they made a 993 GT2.

oh yeah they did



:twisted:

Oh man. I just wet myself.... and it wasn't urine. :oops:

That one. I really could care less though.

[Rob]

dont know who did that


FWIW, my dream car is the 993 RS

3.8 liters and 310hp of aircooled NA goodness, turbo suspension and brakes, and 50kg less than standard 993 :bow:

My friend's dad has a 93 RSA (track car). It's amazing.

[Rob]

RS Americas are awesome indeed

Thought I'd bump the thread, here's Randy's stats:

I don't have any current pics of my 993, but here's a quick mod list/spec sheet of it. It's being prepped right now for SEMA/LasVegas. I'll be sure to post pics once the fender arches are back from the paint shop.

There are many, many more small mods that would take too long to list, these are the major ones. The motor is currently out getting LeMans rings machined on the Mahle pistons.

I'm shooting for around 600rwHP at 20psi. Since the car weighs around 2780lbs and is rear wheel drive (not AWD) it should go good... probably do 11.0sec 1/4mile.

Just thought I'd share. And the motor listed isn't going in as I already said, the spare one is for now.
