2001 Porsche 911 / 996 supercharged and heavily modified towards a GT2..with flair! Car is still periodically being
driven, so mileage will go up a little. I am selling this fun weekend car, along with my daily driver BMW M3, as I
just started a new company, so this car gets to go to a new owner!
I bought this car from a guy that had this vision of the best of Porsche you could make (reasonably!). He put into
many of his own design concepts but to be sure, it was built for a unique styling and pure driving performance
-- and not to be a show queen by any means. To him, a Porsche is meant to be driven and this is a perfect
example of a car that you love to drive. Even still, you will get a TON of comments, cheers, etc while
driving
.driving by them J
Here is the LONG list of options and modifications done to the car:
Original carbon fiber optioned car -- steering wheel and other trim inside plus Factory Sport seats with
Porsche crest in the headrest
VF Engineering Supercharger kit with intercooler, sensors, DME, injectors, etc and adds 7PSI of boost
Full stainless steel exhaust including sport cats and mufflers
IPD Intake Plenum - IPD 96200
Stage 2 performance clutch and Lightweight flywheel
993 RS rubber mounts / WEVO mounts - not a "solid" mount
IMS upgrade / repair completed
Tons of other maintenance including almost all of the coolant hoses, the coolant tank, belts, water pump, LN
Engineering billet oil filter and magnetic drain plug, etc, etc. Basically, nearly everything that could be done
when the car was apart.
Upgraded to Turbo brakes (Big Reds) front and rear
Coil-over suspension installed - Car was professionally corner balanced and set to GT3 specs
Upgraded sway bars and links
Short shifter kit and linkage
Porsche skid plate
Customizable throttle sensitivity with remote
Boost and AFR gauges installed in A-pillar then wrapped in leather
Pioneer AVIC touch screen deck with navigation, Bluetooth, Rear view camera
Custom mounted garage door opener (homelink)
Valentine V1 radar detector custom mounted and Escort shifter Laser jammer with custom stealth installation
Body kit
o TechArt style front bumper damage from a train track crossing which also cracked the splitter K I included
the pictures from when it was perfect, as well as the current picture with the damage. I pulled off the front
splitter as that was too low for city driving and got caught on everything. I still have it, and it can be repaired
if desired
o GT3 rear bumper
o GT2 rear decklid and spoiler
o Custom, one of a kind, rocker panels
o Turbo quarter panel intake ducts -- installed to look flush/factory
PlastiDip with semi-gloss pearl white. It is not perfect and has a few imperfections but looks good from 10.
If you want to truly paint it, you can just peel it off
Upgraded Bi-xenon headlights (2002+)
Decante LED rear taillights, LED 3rd brake light, LED front daytime running lights (in the bumper intakes)
997 side mirrors painted in a GT3 RSR theme
New 19" wheels with relatively new rubber all the way around (note, the rears are really wide and rub when you
hit large bumps so there is some marring on the rears, which has also put rubber marks around the rear fender)
Aftermarket Tire pressure sensors (tpms)

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 918 Spyder configurator goes live
Fri, 13 Sep 2013That didn't take long. The debut model of the new Porsche 918 Spyder is still thronged by onlookers at the Frankfurt Motor Show, while the German sports car maker is hard at work putting the first version of the supercar's configuration page online. Considering Porsche configurators are some of our favorite time-wasters of the genre, we expect car-guy productivity to drop by a few percentage points over the rest of the day.
So, the 918 dream-maker doesn't list and prices as yet, and that's too bad. But considering the car is due to start off at $845,000 in the US, chances are good that unless you're reading this from the shallow end of your Uncle Scrooge-spec money pool, the cost of any part of the 918 is academic to you anyway.
To start, Porsche is offering twelve paint colors, three wheel choices and seven two-tone interior treatments. Standard lightweight bucket seats and a set of chairs with "firmer padding" are on offer, too. The options list is mostly populated with interior bits, though many - an anti-reflection interior, fire extinguisher, six-point seatbelts - are racing-oriented or functional. Note that Porsche is also kind enough to offer just one cupholder as an optional extra; the unit is made of aluminum and is detachable so that you won't have to carry the extra weight during racing. Also, Porsche probably puts you on some kind of naughty 'list' if you order one...
Watch the incredibly complicated operation of Porsche's new targa roof
Tue, 14 Jan 2014Despite Porsche having claimed the name, targa tops are nothing new. In addition to the semi-roofless version of the 911, plenty of cars in the past have used removable roof panels - the new Corvette Stingray has one (as have prior generations), and this type of open-air experience has been available on past vehicles like the Pontiac Solstice Coupe and Honda Civic del Sol.
But when Porsche took the top off its brand new 911 Targa here at the Detroit Auto Show, it was indeed cause for pause. Simply put, this is one of the most complicated and intricate electronic roof panel removal techniques we've ever seen, save perhaps, for the setup found on the Japanese-market Civic del Sol from the 1990s.
We won't spoil the video for you, but basically, rather than just the roof panel coming off, the entire rear glass area lifts away the body in order for the small section over the passenger compartment to slide back. This has to be incredibly expensive to repair once it inevitably breaks. And we highly doubt you'll be able to operate this mechanism at any speed.
