Horse Power vs. Torque: Better Known as Horse Power = Horse Poo

5/1/20187:28 estFiled to: Porsche Maintenance TipsBy: Heidi and Franny

Have you ever wondered about the difference between Horsepower and Torque? These two numbers are probably the most well known specifications in the automotive industry. Yet, I didn't feel like I really had a solid grasp on the differences. I had some idea of each separately, but I was missing just how they interact. I started doing some …

Porsche Spring Start up Steps

4/16/201812:16 estFiled to: Porsche Maintenance TipsBy: Pepper Girl

UPDATED ON APRIL 16, 2018 Will winter never end? While we avoided all of the "four easters" here in the North East (we were away in Florida for the season), many in our Porsche community weren't so lucky. In fact, just yesterday, on April 15th, it snowed. Our 911s sit in storage awaiting a bit of rain to wash the salt from to road and we can't …

The Joys And Stresses Of An Air-cooled Breakdown

3/22/201810:09 estFiled to: Porsche Maintenance TipsBy: Bradley Brownell

Stranded at the side of the road is never a good feeling, especially when you're dealing with an unfamiliar and seemingly phantom electrical problem. I've driven my 1976 912E about 25,000 miles since I purchased it in August of 2016, and it's been absolutely faultless in all that time. It's a little finicky sometimes, but has never left me …

What To Look For When Buying A 911 Carrera 3.2

3/14/201811:45 estFiled to: Do It YourselfBy: Bradley Brownell

White 1989 Carrera 3.2 pulls into Radwood 2 as the passenger waves to the camera

To some Porsche fans, the Carrera 3.2 is considered the pinnacle of Porsche aircooled, as it still used essentially the same chassis Porsche developed in the 1960s, but it had the power and creature comforts you needed for the car to cut the mustard in regular daily use. Later 964s turned off some traditionalists because that chassis dumped the …

Is Singer Responsible For State Of The 964 Market?

2/19/20183:36 estFiled to: AdviceBy: Bradley Brownell

For years we've been hearing the cries of Porsche purists that various refitting firms, usually Singer Vehicle Design and Rauh-Welt, are going to dry up the world's supply of 964-generation 911s. Until recently, we never thought that either of them would reach more than ten or 15 cars per year, but both Singer and RWB have dramatically increased …

Why Do Your Porsche’s Brakes Squeal?

1/30/20188:09 estFiled to: Porsche Maintenance TipsBy: Chris Cushing

why porsche's brakes squeal

There are few sounds in automotivedom less pleasant than brake squeal. While increasing brake temperatures will typically alleviate squeal, keeping your Porsche's brakes at racetrack temperatures around town isn't practical. It's important to consider what is causing your Porsche's brakes to squeal, and determine whether the noise is caused by …

Patrick Long Can Make You Faster on the Track in just 30 Seconds. Here’s How

11/17/20179:22 estFiled to: Driver's EducationBy: Tommy Parry

Contrary to what the laymen might think, there's so much more to going quickly than gusto, bravery, and a double-dosage of manhood. It's an unfortunate assumption made by too many, as reaching the edge of adhesion depends much more on finesse, an understanding of weight transfer, and—crucially—some mechanical sympathy. So much of this is due to …

9/19/20178:44 estFiled to: Driver's EducationBy: Tommy Parry

Evo contributor and world-class driver, Richard Meaden, shows us just how to extract every iota of oomph from a tangerine orange 2.7 RS in this display of driving brilliance. Not only is this car the beginning of the RS lineup, but it's a narrow-tired, lightweight, and powerful track-oriented car with all the idiosyncrasies these cars are known …
