Back to the future.
In today's constantly evolving world of automotive design and technology, upgrading classic vehicles such as the Porsche 911 of the 964 series with backdate conversions is a great way to keep the fascination of historic vehicles alive. These impressive "time machines on wheels" will continue to play a central role in automotive culture in the years to come.
"We believe that the body shapes of the time were so balanced and elegant that they cannot be topped," says Managing Director Dirk Sadlowski.
The careful restoration and the use of original engines, combined with the latest technology, emphasize the authenticity and value of our 964 ST's. The upgrade to a larger 3.8-liter engine and the associated power increase to over 330 hp not only ensure breathtaking driving characteristics, but also guarantee the reliability and longevity that modern sports car enthusiasts expect. This makes the 964 ST a unique combination of classic charm and contemporary dynamics.
Our modern exhaust system, made entirely of stainless steel and with two 100-cell catalytic converters instead of the original 60 cells, is a prime example of our technological innovations and in-house developments. It ensures both compliance with environmental standards and the unmistakable Porsche sound that enthusiasts appreciate so much.
As the original 964 models already had a hydraulic clutch, power steering and an ABS braking system, the everyday usability of our 964 ST's is always guaranteed. To make our STs even more user-friendly and to upgrade them in line with the times, we integrate modern conveniences. An up-to-date climate control system ensures comfort in all weathers, while LED headlights improve visibility and safety. A modern chassis enhances vehicle dynamics and handling, which contributes significantly to performance and driving pleasure.
By reducing the weight by around 150 kilograms, in combination with various chassis optimizations, our ST achieves a performance level comparable to modern cars. The increased power and reduced weight enable impressive acceleration and agile handling. This makes our ST a real dream for anyone who wants to combine classic style with modern power.
We also manufacture high-quality interior applications ourselves in our metalworking shop, including switches made of solid stainless steel or aluminum. Each vehicle is not only a style icon, but also unique, as customers can incorporate their individual ideas into the vehicles. The PS team takes on these challenges with enthusiasm in order to realize the individual dream cars of our customers.
After many years of intensive development and more than 50 964 STs delivered worldwide, almost every aspect of our conversions has been optimized. Even the smallest details such as ventilation motors, radiators, thermostats and their controls are overhauled or replaced. Every screw and bolt is carefully machined, anodized, specially coated and hardened. Even the wheel bolts are made of high-quality titanium steel to ensure that they meet the highest quality and durability standards.
The attention to detail is also evident in the instruments, which are naturally overhauled and designed in a new, historic style. The numbers are green, the hands white, just like on the first Porsche 911 models. This preserves not only the performance, but also the authenticity and charm of these fascinating vehicles at the highest level. A work of art is only complete when nothing more can be added, removed or changed. Thanks to modern production technology, there are still more innovations to come. We are embracing this evolution and working on our Backdate project with immense passion and dedication.
The love that goes into each of our ST's results in an automotive masterpiece that embodies the essence of classic heritage and contemporary sophistication. We look forward to sharing these timeless marvels with enthusiasts around the world.
