Kuba Giermaziak may not be a household name, but he is one of those celebrated drivers that those in the know can't help but complement when his name comes up. As a multiple race winner and vice champion in Porsche Supercup, he's quite comfortable with the idiosyncrasies of the 911 and knows how to get the utmost from it. In fact, he's been able to …

Our Porsche 912E Gets Its Full Suspension Overhaul After A Pile Of Problems
Whenever you're doing a task for the first time, it is bound to take several times longer due to a lack of experience with procedure and form. That was definitely the case here with our 1976 Porsche 912E suspension overhaul. We ran into some serious issues in the disassembly process but we expected the re-assembly to go a bit smoother. We were very …

We've had this old 1976 Porsche 912E kicking around the garage for about five years, and mostly we've just been enjoying the experience of driving it. It's far from a perfect example with a little bit of rust and paint that doesn't even look good from ten feet. It's definitely a driver-grade classic and won't ever be a show machine. The car had …

After the base model and the subsequent S, the GTS variant is the sharper sibling. The chassis improvements over the base model make any GTS—whether it be a Cayman, Boxster, 911, Macan, Panamera, or Cayenne—feel like a completely new vehicle. More power, greater cornering support, stronger braking, and a greater sense of immediacy in every …

Michael Alan Ross is an icon in automotive photography with, ahem, decades of experience behind the lens.

The argument between a paddle-shifted gearbox and a traditional stick-and-clutch assembly is a tired one. Let's bypass the discussion regarding shift times; it's been beaten to death. Let's also sidestep the popular counterargument, the one touching on feel and involvement, as it doesn't acknowledge the full gamut of benefits offered by a …

On a recent road trip (before covid-19 lockdown) my 912E was having some major trouble. It was missing and bucking in the midrange. The little 2-liter was running fine at wide open throttle, and it ran fine at idle, so I figured it had to be a major vacuum leak. Since the engine was recently rebuilt with all new vacuum lines, I figured the culprit …

This 1984 Porsche 944 has been off the road for more than half of its life, and was last registered when it was just 16 years old. After 19 years spent sitting, apparently outside based on the sheer volume of mold and mouse waste, the car was donated to Kars 4 Kids. The car was filthy, not running, and had a stuck brake caliper. Kars 4 Kids was …

My 1976 Porsche 912E is a few years older than I am, and as such it deserves a little rest and relaxation lately. It's lived a long hard life with a lot of abuse. My goal over the next few posts on the car are to get it back into mechanically tip top condition. The body is perhaps in need of some serious help, but for now that's going to have to …

We're entering new territory here! Porsche has just introduced the first of likely many electric cars in its Taycan, and it probably won't be long until we have a hybridized 911 in dealer showrooms. It's time we got with the program and see how this electric propulsion stuff works first hand. We've had "Project Boxster Clubsport" for a few years, …
