This 800-HP RWB 993 Laps Tsukuba Circuit In An Effortless 58 Seconds

1/5/20217:40 estFiled to: Porsche 993, Tuned PorschesBy: Tommy ParryComment

Though the shape and the sheer presence of Rauh-Welt's vehicles are all inspired by old-world motorsport, their striking appearance is appreciated by more folks loitering in parking lots than racing fans sitting in grandstands. Not every one of Akira Nakai's creations make it to the track, but this particular example, thankfully, does. There's a …

Gunther Werks ‘Reimagined’ 993 Laps Laguna Seca as Fast as a McLaren P1

12/11/20207:51 estFiled to: Porsche 993, Tuned PorschesBy: Tommy ParryComment

Among the boutique 911 idealists, the one operation which seems to best blend superior coachwork and cosmetic taste with track aplomb is Gunther Werks. Their M.O. is fairly simple: apply the GT3 concept to a 993, clothe it in carbon fiber, leave as little space in the wheel wells as much as possible, refine the suspension setup with top-shelf …

Testing the 911 GT1 Straßenversion on Slippery Scottish Roads

11/18/20204:35 estFiled to: FIA World Endurance Championship, Porsche 993, Porsche 996By: Tommy ParryComment

Take the front half of a street car, the rear half of a race car, fuse them in the center, eventually replace the headlights for a pair of "broken eggs" from a 996.1, and cloak the car in a mysterious aura. The 911 GT1 is one of those elusive halo cars that only few eyes are fortunate enough to see. Its odd proportions, uncommonly racey …

From Tough Guy to Gentleman: The Transition from 964 Turbo to 993 Turbo

11/13/20203:15 estFiled to: Porsche 964, Porsche 993, Porsche TurboBy: Tommy ParryComment

Calling the last of the single-turbo 911s a thug might be a trifle harsh, but even the relatively refined 964 was a challenging car to manage for anyone but the less than the truly talented. Its adoption of the Weissach Axle, a device pioneered in the 928, softened its edges somewhat, but it wasn't until the combination of that predictable rear …

Randy Pobst Tests Gunther Werks’ Sting at Willow Springs

8/19/20207:05 estFiled to: Porsche 993By: Tommy Parry2 Comments

Gunther Werks' Sting has the presence of an old racing car. It squeezes 295- and 325-section tires underneath its widened carbon haunches, as well as Fuchs-style wheels and massive Brembo CCM-R brakes. It looks nothing but business, and yet its adjustable suspension makes it a civilized thing to drive slowly. I may be a bit biased, but I think …

A History of Rauh-Welt’s Widebody Porsches

7/9/20209:20 estFiled to: Porsche 964, Porsche 993, Tuned PorschesBy: Tommy ParryComment

Akira Nakai's always had a wandering eye for the air-cooled 911, but before he'd laid a hand on a Porsche, he had an affinity for the Toyota Corolla. After a decade spent building and drifting AE86 Corollas, Nakai not only started his own racing team, Rough World, but had started developing a distinct style as a craftsman. By taking what he learned …

Here’s How Magnus Walker Created An “Art Car” The Old Fashioned Way

6/8/20202:24 estFiled to: Porsche 993By: Bradley Brownell1 Comment

Everyone loves a good art car, right? But not all of us have the artistic eye to draw it out ourselves and make it happen. There aren't many 993s in this gorgeous shade of Miami Blau, so it wouldn't be too smart of Magnus Walker to lay down paint over this all-original beauty. Thankfully these days vinyl wrap has gotten to the point that it can …

Gasp In Awe As This 600-HP 993 GT2 Evo Barks Around Spa-Francorchamps

3/26/202011:28 estFiled to: Porsche 993By: Tommy ParryComment

Looking at the massive center-lock BBS wheels underneath those riveted wheel arches makes one giddy. With its widened track and complete absence of amenities, the GT2 Evo oozes unmistakable purpose—a sort of purpose which borders on crude. That's part of the charm of this old-fashioned brute. The 993 spent a relatively short span of time on the …

This 577-HP 993 “GT2” is Not for the Faint of Heart

3/4/20207:53 estFiled to: Porsche 993By: Tommy Parry3 Comments

After building a couple air-cooled RSR lookalikes, Frank Cassidy found he was struggling to keep up with the modern GT-series Porsches on track days. As he frequents Silverstone, a fast circuit which rewards the powerful cars, Cassidy decided to try his hand at building something turbocharged. Cassidy, a fan of the air-cooled cars, chose a 993 …

This RWB Meet in Tokyo Attracts a Few Heavy Hitters

2/21/202012:11 estFiled to: Porsche 993, Tuned PorschesBy: Tommy ParryComment

Long drags of a cigarette, a few casual sips from the vending machine-supplied coffee, and endless eye candy can keep an attendee buzzing until the wee hours at meets like these. Rauh Welt Begriff is now world famous, but perhaps the greatest gatherings of their widebodied Porsches can be seen in Tokyo at meets like this. The characteristic …
