Sarasota, Florida, United States
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

Porsche revisits its remarkable SC East African Safari rally car
Wed, 09 Jul 2014Porsche and motorsports just seem to go hand-in-hand. The brand has defined itself by its ability to compete on the track with the concept that racing bred better road cars. While we are used to seeing 911s speeding along circuits around the world, the rear-engine icon's success in rallying is somewhat less well known. The Porsche Museum aims to fix that by highlighting a 911 SC that competed in the 1978 East African Safari Rally.
The 911 rally car definitely projects a '70s vibe. You wouldn't see too many racecars with a pink brush bar sliding through the stages these days, but it looks amazing. Its bank of spotlights and two, giant, hood-mounted horns definitely give away the car's purpose. Best of all, that fantastic Martini livery defines the looks of Porsche racers from this era.
The 911 SC performed well in the East African Safari Rally, but some suspension damage meant that this particular one never raced again. It's been a part of the Porsche Museum ever since. Scroll down to learn a little more about one part of the brand's off-road legacy.
Aston Martin renames Vantage GT3 after Porsche throws hissy fit
Mon, Mar 23 2015Porsche has a long history of using the name "GT3" for its hardcore, naturally aspirated 911 models, and that means it's certainly not going to share it with the likes of Aston Martin. See, it seems the arrival of the Aston Martin Vantage GT3 at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show didn't sit well with Stuttgart, which opted to lawyer up. According to Goodwood Road and Racing, attorneys from both sides of the Channel have been in discussion for months over the issue, with Porsche arguing it's been using the GT3 name since 1999, and that makes it theirs. Aston, though, argues that the FIA GT3 racing series makes the name fair game for road cars. Moreover, the Brits point out that the alphanumeric was in use well before Porsche got its mitts on it – GRR rightly points out the Lotus Esprit GT3 hit the streets three years before the 996 GT3. And while we're on the subject, Bentley has its own GT3, but we're guessing its status as one of Porsche's siblings means its immune to this kind of squabbling. Rather than getting into a knock-down, drag-out courtroom brawl with one of the Volkswagen Group's prized brands, though, Aston has taken the high road. The company will rechristen both the road-going Vantage GT3 and Vantage racer as the GT12. While Porsche is no stranger to aggressively protecting what it views as its closely held vehicle names, we have to admit, it seems like Aston actually has something of a case. Do you think the Brits were right to settle and change the Vantage's name, or should they have taken the fight to Porsche? Have your say in Comments.
2014 Porsche Cayman S
Thu, 29 Aug 2013Second Fiddle Moves To First Chair
In the interest of full disclosure and a bit of bloodletting, allow me to admit that while I've always coveted the Porsche Boxster and its hard-hatted Cayman cousin, I've never really warmed to them visually. They've always had a certain push-me, pull-you, can't-decide-which-way-they're-going aesthetic that I've never really wrapped my head around. Porsche achieved the same thing with the original 550 Spyder's overturned bathtub bodyshell that would come to inspire the Boxster, but somehow that classic's even more symmetrical nature works for me. Fast-forward to this third generation, and at least for this enthusiast, Porsche's manchild has well and truly come of age as a design.
It's all there - a piercing stare thanks to squircle headlamps inspired by the 918 Spyder hypercar, newfound directional thrust afforded by a longer wheelbase and elongated greenhouse, and muscular rear haunches with a wider stance emphasized by larger side ductwork and snubbed overhangs. The body's teardrop shape terminates with an active spoiler that integrates into a gorgeous arc with the taillamps like a budding ducktail nod to 1973 911 Carrera RS. Despite casting a longer shadow than its predecessor, the 2014 Cayman still looks tidily proportioned, smooth and wieldy, the perfect skipping stone to ricochet down a canyon river road.
