IF YOU ARE INTERESTED EMAIL ME AT: katelinvolle@juno.com .
It started out as a clean, rust free 70k original mile 1976 912E and it went crazy from there. the car puts out 707hp to the wheels on 18 lbs of boost and at a very conservative 12 lbs it puts out 498 rwhp on pump gas. there is a fuel cell up front running dual fuel pumps
The car has a fiberglass 993 turbo wide body kit painted seal grey. Looks great. the front lip and driver door jamb have a couple of little spots that need a little attention but otherwise it looks great. the sunroof open and closes but it does not pop up at the very end when it closes. the car also has a/c which needs a charge.
the wheels are BBS E26's 17x 9&12's with brand new toyo R888 in 235/45 and 315/35 sizes.
the motor started out as a 3.2 and is now a 3.4, single Turbonetics turbo, twin plug, custom equal length headers with borla muffler, custom intake made from a 3.2 intake, Tech3 engine management, pauter rods, cams, stainless ring head seals, huge intercooler which is sealed with the decklid closed for optimal cooling. the engine hunts for idle when cold but once it warms up it smooths out. engine has low miles since built as it hasn't been driven much over the past few years.
the transmission is a reinforced 993 6 speed that shifts perfect. the pedal cluster was changed out to a late 80's carrera for the hydraulic clutch.
there are 2 oil coolers up front. one in the stock location and another in the front dam.
the front suspension has bilstein coilovers, 993 brakes, brake cooling kit, through the body sway bar
the rear suspension has adjustable sway bar, bilstein 964 cup coilovers, 930 trailing arms, 930 brakes
car has a roll bar with some pretty hefty cross bracing with 5 point harnesses
i'm sure i'm leaving out a bunch of stuff. all top notch components used in this build

New J.D. Power Initial Quality Study puts Porsche, GM in spotlight
Wed, 19 Jun 2013J.D. Power and Associates has released its annual Initial Quality Study, and this year, Porsche and General Motors took the spotlight. The study, which asks new car owners to report problems experienced during the first 90 days of ownership, found that overall, the industry averages 113 problems per 100 vehicles.
Porsche managed a score of just 80 problems per 100 vehicles, while GMC took the second spot on the podium with 90. Lexus filled out the top three with 94 problems per 100 vehicles, followed by Infiniti at 95 and Chevrolet at 97. The study also looks at specific models, and found the Lexus LS to enjoy the best initial quality at 59 problems per 100 vehicles.
Interestingly enough, the report found that around two-thirds of most owner problems experienced in the first 90 days are attributable to vehicle design instead of mechanical failure. Specifically - echoing a refrain we've been hearing for the last few years - owners are having a hard time figuring out how to use the technology present in their new vehicles. Head over to the J.D. Power site for more information, or scroll down below for the company's related press release.
NHTSA closes probe into 2011 Porsche 911 coolant leaks
Thu, 13 Mar 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has announced that it will end its investigation into rapid coolant loss in 24,635 Porsche 911s built between 2001 and 2011. The models affected included the standard 911, GT2, GT3 and Turbo, as well as their variants (GT2 RS, GT3 RS and Turbo S).
NHTSA was investigating for "rapid coolant loss caused by coolant pipe-fitting failure, allegedly resulting in vehicle disablement and/or loss of vehicle control due to reduced traction for the affected vehicle or following traffic," according to the regulators website. "Most of the leak complaints did not appear to involve complete separation of the fittings and many were detected when the vehicle was parked," said NHTSA's statement.
There were 63 complaints and 336 warranty claims, although the investigation was initiated after ten complaints from customers. There have been no reports of crashes or injuries attributed to rapid coolant loss.
Porsche 918 Spyder already almost sold out?
Mon, 20 Oct 2014Still planning on getting your hands on a Porsche 918 Spyder? You'd better act quickly, because word has it that the hybrid hypercar is nearly sold out.
While Porsche has reportedly only delivered a little over 30 of the 918 examples of the Spyder it plans to manufacture in total, Automotive News says that production is sold out through late March or early April - just a few months shy of when production is set to wrap in July.
That's pretty impressive for a car with a base price of almost $850,000, especially one requiring a $200,000 deposit just to get your name on the list. Still, that sum is significantly less than its competitors get for the McLaren P1 or LaFerrari, both of which sell for over a million (if you can actually get on one at that price), though in fairness, production of each is limited to less than half of the 918 Spyder.
