If You Could... Porsche Or Gtr


Recommended Posts

Just wondering what you guys who prefer a Porsche would actually do with it. From what I've seen in open competition P cars don't do that well unless they are driven by the top few gun drivers.

One thing seems clear, bang for buck they are rubbish.

Bit of a hard one.

Was on Para rd today, and spotted an R35 ... Had a look, walked up to the servo and spotted a 997 GT2 (spewing I didn't get pics of the GT2, got pics of R35).

If I had to pay it would be the 35, freebies = GT2, sell it .. + loan, buy a house.. Pretty happy with my 32 :laugh:

porsche always stands out as rich middle aged business man to me, there hot but they dont stand out in my opinion.

R35 GTR sitting next to a porsche i think i know what most people would be looking at.

also since beating my students porche in my r32 rb25 i've lost alot of respect for them :laugh:

Either one, then I'd use a 9" angle grinder, cut the roof off, mount a 'T' spottie, rifle rack, and 'roo leg racks and take it shooting. Then I'd see which one lasts the distance>>>>take it out to Tilpa paddock bashing, or up the gulf and through a few creeks.

They just don't do proper rood tests on cars...do they????

Do track days in it :P

Something doesn't need to be the quickest to be the most enjoyable. I don't like computer controlled cars as much as I do raw cars with the option of turning off all electronics.

A '73 RS would be a lot slower than any of the cars mentioned on the track, but I'd take one over near on anything given the chance.

Porker first, daylight second.

The only question is what vintage do you prefer your 911 in?

Ok, given 300k to spend on a car, I'd actually buy 20 really nice S13's and have a series for all my mates.... Much more fun :P

I'll sell you mine for 200k, then you can buy 19 with the rest and win with ease*. Deal?

*you may have to push it though, it's not running

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
