New Porsche addict -> 993 GT2 Clubsport
Discussion
Hi,
I'm Denis, new to PistonHeads and I'm a Porsche addict.
I started my Porsche career in 1999 with an Indian red 964 Turbo, then I had another one in 2001 that I prepared to race specs (RSR chassis, carbon, Leichtbau engine, etc.) that I painted in Cadmium yellow. It was very performant with 420 bhp for 1238 kg (with fuel).
At the same time I was driving a 993 Turbo (factory 450 bhp).
I finaly had the chance to be proposed a 96' 993 GT2 Clubsport, which I was not allowed to miss...
This one has a 540 bhp Roock racing engine modification, shortened gears for 4th, 5th and 6th and Le Mans 15" endurance brakes.
This is terrific on roads and I still need to learn how to ghandle it, but each time that's a complete pleasure to drive it.
I aim to gather several 993 GT2 at a track event in June but I will post a mesage for that.

It has the full stage of Roock engine tuning : cams, K24, big radiators, calculator, etc.
I bought it already prepared. In fact, I know this car since year 1999 and it was for sale last year, so I took my chance.
I just saw Agent Orange's GT2 CS: it is awsome in this color!
Funny we have more or less the same engine preparation.

That thing's mighty under full beans - just a shame that track didn't allow much acceleration at all!
Does it get frustrating having to run with a light throttle for much of the time, I was watching those clips thinking "God I'd love to plant it if I was driving" but knowing that the next thing I'd be seeing was armco and tyres!

did you get those cups scrubbed back in, car was working better in the aft!
they were a lot better by the afternoon (or maybe i wasn't so crap) but still not up to 888's, so i guess they've sat around for too long. roll on the 8th....
denis, nice car, in the most desirable colour too !
Hi Denis that car looks gorgeous , i have had a twin plug engine in excess of 550bhp started with R Schmirle , and then a bit done elsewhere but thats gone to a guy on herer Sambaman...........Orange cs machine has been to Roock , 2 ,kk24 , some mapping , and small bits done ....380 mm fronts are brilliant! BUT mine only tuned to abt 480 bhp , so much slower in a straight line than urs ...............theres a trackday here June 20th Brands Hatch Gp circuit which is great for our cars ,long starights and corners to carry speed thru sure we cud get a few cars together
