Video walk around from January 13th, 2017 -- go to youtube and paste: 1983 Porsche 911 SC with carbon fiber 993
turbo look upgrade
For sale is my 1983 Porsche 911 with 49,500 miles on the original 3.0L 6 cylinder naturally aspirated engine mated
to a matching 5 speed manual transmission.
This engine is reliable and bulletproof, significantly improved over the 2.7L versions of the 70's, which were
ticking time bombs unless you replaced the magnesium valve covers. The 3.0 is easier to tune and offers more torque
at lower revs.
This specific example is, in my opinion, special. It been perfectly maintained for the last 33 (34) years and is
aesthetically even more exclusive, having been professionally fully restored approximately 10 years ago and in the
process upgraded to a high-strength lightweight 993 carbon fiber body - over $20k spent just on this upgrade build
not including costs of restoration.
Originally a Texas vehicle (and currently registered in MA), this Porsche 911 has no rust what so ever. Everything
functions as it should: transmission is smooth and tight, the clutch really bites when it engages, the brakes are
thick, strong, firm and responsive. All electricals, every light dash and gauge functions. The engine compartment
is as clean as a whistle, the transmission is smooth and predictable, and the interior is 9.5/10. There is no rust
on the body, no cracks on the dash, no tears on the leather. The paint looks great, the canvas top is literally
brand new and has never seen rain. The e-brake works as it should.
The title is clear.
*this is not a turbo*
Disclosures:
1. The clock on the dash is slow.
2. The driver's side window could use a realignment and adjustment of the stop gap.
4. The rear spoiler could use a hinge adjustment.
5. Leaks a small amount of oil after a long drive but does not require topping off between oil changes. Does not
drip constantly.

Porsche 912 is no longer the brand's black sheep
Fri, Dec 12 2014If you haven't looked recently, prices for many vintage Porsche 911s are now well out of the realm for mortal men to purchase. However, the growing values have their advantages because they mean that the 912 is being better accepted as a member of the Porsche family. In a new video, Petrolicious talks to one owner about his mildly modified example while the coupe zips through the backroads and city streets of France. Launched around the time of the 911, the 912 shared its body but retained the four-cylinder engine from the 356, rather than the new six. The older mill helped make the 912 cheaper to buy, but it also tarnished the coupe in the eyes of Porsche fans for years. Much like the four-cylinder 914 and 924, the 912 just seemed like a black sheep in the shadow of its more powerful brother. Following two massive changes to his life, Julien Borne bought a 1967 912 as a project to get back on the road. After hours of welding, wrenching and beating out panels by hand in his grandparents' neglected country house, he crafted this gorgeous example. Check out the video to hear his story, as Petrolicious shows why the model's stigma is wearing off.
Porsche acquires ANDIAL, will integrate with in-house motorsports
Sat, 16 Feb 2013Porsche has purchased longtime motorsports and tuning house ANDIAL.
The Fountain Valley, California-based tuning house ANDIAL has been around since 1975, when it was formed by the Arnold Wagner, Dieter Inzenhofer and Alwin Springer (the company got its name by combining two letters from each of their names). The three men met while working in a Porsche dealership in Southern California and then left to start a business that would put Porsches in victory lane all over the country.
Porsches prepared by ANDIAL won IMSA GT and Supercar Series championships, the SCCA World Challenge, four Pikes Peak class titles and the 24 Hours of Daytona six times. Alwin Springer left the company in 1997 to run Porsche Motorsport North America until 2004 and remains a consultant with PMNA, Wagner passed away in 2011 and Inzenhofer plans to retire this year. ANDIAL is still a going concern, Inzenhofer presiding over a scaled-down engine parts and restoration business. But Inzenhofer is retiring at month's end, making it a good time for Porsche to step in and take over the company's operations.
Porsche planning Cayman GT4 racer
Fri, 10 Oct 2014To say that Porsche is big in racing is like saying that Warren Buffett dabbles in mergers and acquisitions. But while it fields the 919 Hybrid at Le Mans and in the FIA World Endurance Championship, the bulk of its racing activities are undertaken by private teams that buy customer racecars from the factory. Those in turn are largely based on the 911, but the latest intel from the motor racing world indicates that Zuffenhausen is planning a more accessible customer race car.
The new, more affordable competition car is to be based on the Cayman and built to GT4 specifications, slotting in below the 911-based GT3 Cup, GT3 R and RSR. Autosport reports that Porsche has already developed a prototype and will shortly commence testing. Details are scarce at the moment, but the Cayman GT4 would seem to compete against the likes of the Aston Martin Vantage N24, Nissan 370Z Nismo GT4 and Maserati GranTurismo MC. It will also likely help Porsche foster enthusiasm for a potential road version that's already been spotted undergoing testing. Previous GT4 racing conversions of the Cayman, like the one pictured above, were carried out by third-party racing constructors not recognized by the factory.
Porsche may not be the only one showing interest in the category, however. BMW is said to similarly be considering a GT4-spec version of its M235i Racing model to compete in the same class, taking the place of the defunct M3 GT4 as the Bavarian marque's entry-level customer racing car.
