Vanilla Sundae, Everyday
What if your Sunday driver could be your daily driver; Porsche Everyday? What if Porsche made a GT3 in 1986? This
is the car!
The car is a very rare color that was special order only in 86’. The paint is all original. The wheels are the
original as well and have been recently refinished. The car has fresh Bridgeston RE-71 Tires, these are the best
performers in dry/wet tires for the 16” wheels. The cars suspension has been replaced for a proper ride and
safety.
Bilstein Sport shocks in the rear and comfort in front gives the best balance between road feel that is not too
firm or too soft. Instead of just repairing the CV joints I had the axles replaced. Lowered to European Ride
Height, with a alignment setup for performance driving, and corner balanced for a drivers weight of 185 pounds. The
stance is further refined with the addition of rear wheel spacers. The wheel bearings were also replaced.
The OEM brakes lacked the stopping power I was accustomed to from driving modern GT3’s. Rather then just upgrade
to 930 brakes, I wanted to take it a step further and got a big brake kit with some custom fabrication done to fit
the factory wheels. The rotors are much larger then factory as well. Steel brake lines have been added with PFC
pads and the best possible brake fluid Castrol SRF.
The exhaust system has been completely replaced with new pipes and gaskets. Starting with Euro George’s headers
(known for making the most power), Cat Delete Straight pipes, and M&K GT3 Style Center Exhaust (2in 2 out). With
this setup you’d be surprised at just how good the car sounds; zero drone, and not too loud at full throttle. I
have to mention with the addition of the headers the car currently does not have heat. Heater components will be
included in the sale. Also to add to performance and maximize gains from the exhaust system the car has a custom
performance chip done by Steve Wong from 911chips. The spark plugs were just replaced along with new wires and
distributor cap.
Being a Florida Car (from 86 to now) I had the air conditioning system upgraded and it will keep you cool up to 90
degrees! Worn hoses were replaced, a “pro cooler” was added, a new compressor, and the system runs on a R12
substitute. A Keuhl air vent was also added for a little more flow.
The most crucial connection between man and car is in the cabin; the steering wheel and shifter. The steering wheel
has been replaced with a Momo Prototipo wheel. It isn’t just a visual improvement, but a performance enhancement.
The leather embossed Porsche Crest horn button completes the look. The factory shifter was vague and uninspiring. I
had that replaced with a Rennshift kit. It gives the shifter a much more modern defined feel. There is no searching
for gears. Its a positive feel when engaging gears. All of the bushings have been replaced, the coupling, engine &
transmission mounts, and the gearbox oil as well. This is the best 915 you will come across. I have driven G50’s
that don't feel as good!
Custom Door light weight door panels wrapped in leather and stitched too look factory really add to the experience
of the car. The door pulls are leather straps that gives you the feeling you are stepping out of something really
special, which you are. Other weight savings include, rear seatback delete, heat delete, Recaro seats, and lighter
exhaust system.
Two sets of keys, original spare, and manual are also included. In addition the car is hard wired for a valentine
one radar detector. A cup holder has been added as well.
The cars performance is excellent. Between the handling, braking, acceleration, it has it all to go with the looks.

Audi outlasts rivals to win 13th Le Mans title
Sun, 15 Jun 2014As is so often the case, the 2014 Le Mans was a war of attrition, and Audi managed to prevail once again after all 24 hours had been recorded in the history books, with its Audi R18 E-Tron Quattro claiming first and second places, followed by Toyota in third. Drivers Marcel Fassler, Andre Lotterer and Benoit Treluyer inherited the lead in their No. 2 Audi after the No. 7 Toyota, driven by pole-sitter Kazuki Nakajima, was forced to retire with electrical problems in the 15th hour.
The No. 2 Audi led the race until it was forced to the pits to replace a turbocharger in the 17th hour, allowing the No. 1 Audi, driven by Lucas di Grassi, Marc Gene (who was a last-minute replacement for Loic Duval, who crashed hard during practice) and defending champion Tom Kristensen, led the race until the 21st hour, when it too had to pit with turbocharger issues. This gave the No. 20 Porsche of Timo Bernhard, Brendon Hartley, and Mark Webber the lead until it was forced off the track with gearbox problems, eventually finishing in 38th position.
In LMP2, the Jota Sport Zytek Z11SN-Nissan driven by Simon Dolan, Harry Tincknell and Oliver Turvey claimed victory, the first five LMP2 finishers all powered by Nissan. Down a level in GTE-Pro, No. 51 AF Corse Ferrari 458 Italia GT2 driven by Gianmaria Bruni, Toni Vilander and Giancarlo Fisichella finished one lap ahead of the leading Corvette Racing C7.R. And finally, the No. 95 Aston Martin Racing Vantage GTE driven by Kristian Poulsen, David HeinemeierHansson and Nicki Thiim won the GTE-Am race two laps ahead of a Proton Porsche 911 GT3 RSR.
Porsche 911 GT2 caught testing, is super bad
Thu, 27 Jun 2013Look what spy photographers have spotted sprinting around the Nürburgring. Our shooters nabbed a few photos of the all-new Porsche 911 GT2 in its native habitat without any of the bulky camouflage or cladding we're used to seeing. The result is our first truly clear view at the upcoming successor to the GT2 throne. From the looks of it, the new model will boast wider fender arches front and rear, and hefty air intakes set into the machine's hips should help feed a beastly 3.8-liter flat six-cylinder engine. Early guesses put the engine output somewhere around 560 horsepower.
Mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, the engine should propel this rear-engined heathen to 62 miles per hour in under three seconds. Top speed? Try somewhere around 200 mph. If that's true, the next-generation 911 GT2 will be the fastest 911 in Porsche history.
Porsche 911 GT3 RS revealed in patent photos
Fri, 01 Aug 2014Porsche has been taking its time developing the most hardcore 911 models for the latest 991 chassis. While the GT3 has been on the market for a little while, it suffered from some teething issues. The 911 GT3 RS is certainly on the radar since being spotted testing, but it's always better to get a look at a new car without all of the camo to hide the coolest parts. Thankfully, Car in the UK has some patent photos of the RS ahead of its debut, and they show off one mean-looking 911.
The first thing that you notice about the RS is that Porsche clearly isn't afraid to rework the latest 911's shape for its track-focused version. Each piece is slightly resculpted to squeeze the most out of it. Up front, the air dam has the same shape to the earlier photos. They also both highlight the upcoming model's tiny air inlet at the tip of the hood, the massive intakes in the rear fenders and general design of the rear wing with a ducktail underneath. The bubbled roof is much clearer here, where it was disguised in spy shots. You can also spot the slashing fender gills behind the front wheels that are a completely new feature.
The GT3 RS is the ultimate naturally aspirated 911 for the street, but according to Car, Porsche aims to take that even farther with the latest model. If these are the looks, then it's working. Unfortunately, the new version's powerplant remains a mystery. Though, given all the changes to the bodywork, the engine is almost surely getting tweaked over the 475-horsepower GT3. The RS is rumored to hit the road and be screaming down the track in 2015.
