    Did someone say flat nose?

    Comment


      mmm 964 speedsters! - but I think i'd rather one of the late model IB ones (even though they're probably less popular than the slant nose)

        Race versions are utterly fap worthy (probably by favorite race Porsche). Just something about the road version that is slightly out of proportion to me? Don't quite know what it is.....

          these are the only road versions i'd consider - the slantnose turbo with those vents just looks weird, I think the nose is too short

          there's always the 'street' version of the kremer K3


          I wonder if this is actually registered in the UK or just has plates

                You need the bread van back to make it work. For me the K3 is perfect. The only race can with more I'm here to chew gum and kick arse and I'm all out of gum look is a 917..

                  the slant is too sharp on the road going versions. really makes the side profile look like a beetle. plus the underbite from having it slant down to standard impact bumper and not full valence like the race cars

                    Yup, Its definitely the side profile cm. I think you've nailed it.

                    As awesome as some of the more 'heavy hitter' racing Porsches are, something about the 908-3 spyder that just does it for me. Perhaps its the humble simplicity of it??? No crazy wings, simple undersquare motor.



                    I was at the Porsche museum about a month back and was really taken back by just how small it was. I'll see if I can dig up some detailed pics later.

                      check out the 909 bergspyder- mental

                      Like its predecessors, the 909 Bergspyder used an aluminium spaceframe chassis. The exotic material titanium was used for various suspension components, including the four coil springs. The engineers even experimented with alloy steering arms but these proved too fragile. The disc brakes available underlined to which extremes Porsche was ready to go to get the desired results.

                      First used on the 910/8 Spyder, they were cast in the rare earth metal beryllium. One-fourth the weight of conventional cast iron discs, they resulted in a 14 kg (31 lbs) cut. The drawback was the steep price ($1000 per disc) and toxicity of the inevitable beryllium dust. As a result only five examples were available, usually fitted on the car of the fastest driver. The discs were chrome plated to contain the poisonous dust.

                      A unique feature of the 909 was the fuel tank. At 16 litre, it could hold just enough fuel for one run up and back down the mountain. All 1.7 kg (3.8 lbs) of the fuel pump were saved by using a nitrogen pressurised sphere. The 'Kugeltank' consisted of a titanium exterior shell with a rubber bladder inside, which contained the fuel. Before the start nitrogen was fed into the space between the shell and the bladder to get the pressure needed to send the fuel to the engine.

                      The result of the laborious work was a car that weighed just 375 kg before adding fuel and driver.

                        I feel the same about the slant nose road cars. I also group the targa models in the same category. Horrible imo.

                            I wonder how doable a Kraftwerkz 917 rep would be as an ICV?

                            I'm thinking there's no way a 935 rep will get plated, but the 917 has fewer stick-outy bits?

                              Nah, the SE body is visually to heavy around the sills/rear guard area with the vents. There are better looking slant nose conversions out there.

                                Fuck, if only you could register one...

                                Maybe disassemble, import, assemble with adr37a motor, ICV, fit real motor......seems doable
