Porsche 914-6 Conversion 2.4t With Cis on 2040-cars
Youngsville, North Carolina, United States
|
After a torrid 12 year love affair, it's time to let the old gal go. Got my eyes on a younger, sleeker model! Purchased in 2002 as a bone stock 2.0 car, and spent the subsequent years (and a good chunk of my kids' potential college money) upgrading to where it is at today. The suspension has been gone through and all new, high end parts replaced all the originals...Tarrett Engineering, CFR, Koni to name a few. The engine conversion was done to a high standard, utilizing a bulkhead engine mount, real 914-6 cooling tin, Vellios oil tank, professionally made wiring harness that plugs into the original harness, and original bell crank throttle assembly. The engine is a bone stock 2.4T with CIS injection that runs strong(ask the turboed Miatas at our local AXs!). The external oil cooler keeps oil temps under control on hot days on track. The interior is in great shape, the original dash has absolutely no cracks or blemishes. It has been used as primarily an autocross car, but has spent a fair amount of time on track (VIR, CMP, Rockingham) and has always been a solid performer. It won its class last month in our local autocross! Its also a fun weekend driver, always turns a lot of heads and gets a lot of comments at the gas station! The car looks great and handles amazingly - one ride and you will understand the meaning of the saying "it handles like a go-kart". Engine: 1973.5 2.4T with CIS. - Pressure fed tensioners -1-1/2” headers – Triad Muffler – Magnacore Wires -Bulkhead Motor Mount – Aftermarket Vellios style oil tank, stock 914-6 filter console and filler neck/dipstick. Mocal external oil cooler

Woman rushing to pub nearly causes head-on collision
Wed, Aug 17 2016A woman in a rush to pick up her husband from a local pub caused this close call on a street in England this weekend. The near miss happened on Sunday on the B1253 between Rudston and Bridlington, East Yorkshire, England. A Porsche Cayenne driver attempted to overtake a blue Citroen on a blind curve but didn't see the white Skoda in oncoming traffic. Thanks to the Skoda driver's quick maneuvering on to the grassy shoulder the Cayenne only caused minor damage to the other two cars. Damian Hodgson is the owner of the dashboard camera who was behind the blue Citroen. After the close call Hodgson first stopped to check on the Skoda driver. Driver and car were okay, but a 10-year-old girl in the front seat was in tears. Hodgson then made his way down the road where the Porsche driver was speaking to the Citroen driver. He said the Porsche's driver gave some pretty lame reasons for putting so many people's lives in danger. "She said she was picking her husband up from the pub and was wearing a pair of slippers - but it's no excuse to be overtaking on a blind bend," Hodgson told the Mirror. "She did tell me she always overtakes at that spot though." Hodgson picked up the dashcam after a crash while on vacation in Florida last month. He offered the footage to both the drivers of the Skoda and the Citroen, but both declined. Hodgson told the Mirror that he hopes some good comes from the incident. "If anything comes of this, it is hopefully that the lady Porsche driver has learned a lesson and she will not put others in danger again."

Thu, 23 May 2013American race driver Connor de Phillippi was recently added to the roster of Porsche Juniors, the arm of Porsche's factory racing program that develops new talent. The 20-year-old is contesting the Porsche Carrera Cup Deutschland series with FÖRCH Racing by Lukas Motorsport, and last weekend, he raced the series round at the Nürburgring. Starting 15th on the grid, de Phillippi would cross the line in ninth out of 32 finishers.
Courtesy of his in-car camera, you can watch his entire first lap in the video below - there's no music added, just engine whine during nine minutes of crests, turns, bumpy straights and that wicked Carousel. Enjoy.
Studiotorino shows new Cayman-based Moncenisio sports car
Mon, 24 Mar 2014While the recent bankruptcy of Bertone shows that it has become very difficult to be a coachbuilder today, it seems there is still a business case in creating unique bodies for premium vehicles. Case in point, Studiotorino a small, Italian coachbuilder that has been creating limited-edition cars since 2005. Its latest creation is the Moncenisio, which debuted as a prototype at the National Automobile Museum of Turin on March 21. It's named after the 1902 Susa-Moncenisio race in Italy, the first automotive hillclimb in the world.
The Moncenisio begins life as Porsche Cayman S, and each car will be built to order with a planned production run of 19 examples. The chassis, mechanicals and engine are all left untouched. The only thing that Studiotorino alters are the body panels and interior appointments. Prices start at at a heady 145,000 euros ($200,420 US), plus the cost of the donor vehicle.
Architect Daniele Gaglione penned the shape of the Moncenisio, taking inspiration from the 1963 Porsche 904. The sports coupes receive carbon fiber pieces that replace the front bumper, side panels and rear bumper. Studiotorino also covers the rear side windows with welded metal panels. The design is still clearly a Cayman, especially from the front, but the extended roof and support pillars create a new look from behind, which features a new exhaust treatment and rear spoiler. The interior receives leather upholstery on the engine compartment cover, the partition between the engine and seats, ceiling and A-pillars. Scroll down to view a walkaround of the Moncenisio and read the full press release about it.
