Porsche 964 Carrera 2

A customer wanted to have a 964 restored so that it would be just as if he had been able to choose a new one from the dealer in 1992, tailored to his specifications.
A good-quality 964 C2 was found and completely stripped down. To avoid any problems with old layers of paint, all the paint was sanded down to the bare metal. The body and its components were then spray-painted in the original colour, ‘schiefer grau’.
This Porsche has also undergone quite a bit of technical work. The suspension has been replaced with a Bilstein PSS10 kit, which can be adjusted not only for height but also for stiffness. The brakes have been taken from the RS – all brand new! The wheel bearings, brake hoses and so on have also been replaced; everything has been renewed.
The engine was still the old type without cylinder head gaskets; we completely dismantled it, fitted it with new bearings, gaskets, new pistons and cylinders; all cylinder heads were fitted with new valve guides and valves; the starter motor and alternator were reconditioned; and an exhaust system with a sports catalytic converter and a special stainless steel silencer with two outlets was fitted. Furthermore, the engine was fitted with a tuning system comprising a glow plug and a sports air filter, combined with a different ECU chip. To make the most of the extra horsepower, an RS flywheel and a special sports clutch were also fitted.
The entire interior was fitted with new RS-spec carpet, whilst the seats, dashboard, door panels and centre console were upholstered in high-quality leather. An original RS steering wheel and a radio with an iPod connection complete the look.
