Acne Racing Factory Turbo Look Backdate!
Wide, loud, red, white. An incredibly good car to drive, to show off. Or simply to put away.

1983, smoking was still fashionable. And with the 3.2, Porsche had just left the most reliable 911 to date. And then with the turbo look (factory turbo look) we put one on top: turbo-wide body and the complete turbo chassis with turbo brakes.
All together the ideal basis for this neat 2.8 RSR backdate.
Because, unlike what is usual with conversions of this type, no changes had to be made to the body of this vehicle in order to come close to the legendary wide body look of the F model at the time.
The side skirts and the rear spoiler were dismantled for this. Replaced the boot lid with a lockable longhood conversion made of plastic from FSH. The RSR rear bumper made of GRP had to be meticulously adapted to the turbo-wide body in days of work, as a suitable part was not available anywhere. FSH's Singer-style front bumper was also adapted to the wide wheel arches and non-destructively mounted to the front end.
The factory-fitted wheel arches easily accommodate the original 16″ Fuchs rims, widened to 9″ and 10″ by Keller. Brand new Michelin Pilot Classic 245/45 and 205/55 with the contemporary block profile stretch over the deeply dished rims.
The turbo chassis with its solid aluminum rear axle links, stabilizers and turbo steering is already perfectly tuned from the factory. Therefore, only the rigidity was optimized by inserting harder torsion bars and a uniball bearing strut brace from Rennline and the handling for "street sports" was noticeably improved by installing K&W Variant 3 dampers.
The 6-cylinder naturally aspirated engine runs clean, dry and is in the original delivery condition. To increase performance, the exhaust system was replaced with a double-flow Schäfer exhaust with ssi manifolds and the setup was perfectly tuned by Dennis Dragunski (Elferwelt) to a whopping 255hp. In order to bring the performance reliably onto the road, the 915 5-speed gearbox was professionally overhauled and mechanically upgraded by installing a WEVO gate shifter and gearbox side cover. A Drexler limited-slip differential was installed for higher cornering speeds.
The black interior is in exceptionally good condition. The original seats were stored and replaced with a set of contemporary RECARO Idealsitz S with corduroy center panels. The RSR steering wheel from FSH and the jagged WEVO shifter with balsa wood gear knob are within easy reach. The feet rest on specially made floorboards made of GRP. The instruments are just as faithfully adapted to the F-series as the bluethooth-capable retro sound radio with hands-free function.
The vehicle is largely in the first paint and was taken over in the original condition in the 3rd owner before the conversion. All dismantled add-on parts are neatly stored so that the vehicle can be restored to its original condition at any time.
With its Marlboro design, the car has already been hipped in various media, most recently in the book GET OUT by Vince Perraud. If you prefer it uni, you can simply remove the white foil again. But of course this 3.2 never becomes completely inconspicuous…
