Glad to know this is normal I am not sure I have ever seen one in the Detroit area without some super snarky “NO OIL” type plate.

So true, actually a very cool car, (ACR model and viper seats!) but man, everyone Iknow with one knows far less about cars than they think they do and are so obnoxious about “their super sick srt4 that they street race”.

I get it, there are a lot of people who jump on the YEAH BUT WHAT ABOUT THE HELCAT 707HP BRO! MURICA BRO! bandwagon and it drives me nuts. I was just pointing out that the GT350 shockingly seems to be laying down similar lap times to a Porsche (a gt3 no less!) now which is just so crazy to me. Even just 10 years ago…

Agreed, a cayman GT4 would be a better comparison but in my eyes its an even better sports car (not supercar) than the GT3 I would die to have a GT4 in my garage and I feel like while it would be slower than a GT350R it would be much more fun.

Woahh chill, yeah the gt3 whoops pretty much everything, even stuff more exotic than it, can’t we just be happy that the big three are finally out of the dark ages of the 80-00s? as for my source? I work in powertrain calibration, the guy I was talking about is in powertrain calibration for the voodoo engine, he has…

Cool.... I responded about the GT3 which I was very clear about in my comment, I was using it as a benchmark because it isn’t completely sold out like the RS and its a bit closer to the GT350R in terms of how extreme it is. I don’t know why you are getting so angry and defensive, you should really chill out. I don’t…

I am not smoking anything. Where are you getting your data from because Ford Performance has officially come out saying that it is slightly faster than the 991 gt3 that they used as a benchmark on a couple of tracks. Also I know people on the development team including people who are huge porsche fans that have…

It would be it yes but not by that much the gt350R is faster than the 991 gt3 so it would be close enough to say who cares especially considering its 1/3 the price and sounds as good if not better.

Thanks for the reply! I would love to see a 2GR running big boost, it would be different than the typical 2JZ.

Hi Fredric you have obviously been very successful running the 2AR(?) 4 cylinder but as FD keeps upping power levels do you feel like you will need to end up going v8 or to a 6 cylinder? I personally find the wide range of powertrain choices in FD somewhat refreshing.

Those armored things look like they are superduty based that’s interesting.

COTD... I just laughed audibly at work.

I’m not going to defend formula D as a motorsport I find it kind of silly but I dont get why “people who hate it” spend so much time bashing it and talking about it. The ONE thing that I will defend about it is that you see some pretty cool powertrain packages that people have put real effort into. Of course you also…

Is it just me or does that actually seem fairly cheap for what it is? Of course I know nothing about planes but when you consider you could get this or a new aventador it seems like a lot more for your money.

Have you seen the new evap emissions requirements in the US? They are insanely strict its not 1960 anymore they aren’t really polluting via evaporative emissions.

I saw this immaculate Testarossa at a Burger King outside of Detroit this summer. Pretty random, I would say this qualifies.

uh didn’t he post a 997.2 not a 991? meaning he would have to wait a while?

Yeah do that and watch your resale get cut in half.... seriously though Porsche guys love seeing the official stamps in the owners manual for each service, doing stuff yourself WILL cost you resale.

Yup it pains me how much flow/ pumping loss there is there. The two sides don’t even seem to be even and the exposed welds look like crap. This would be excusable on a homebuilt project car but its embarrassing for a 250K supercar.

Its just a tc with modified front and rear subframes. Theres actually room for rear axels and a diff in the tc rear end due to the shared tooling/chassis parts with some other cars like the awd matrix.
