991.2 GT3 Paris 1-16 October official presentation
#316
Gt2rs will have all the downforce and will need it. I hope
Porsche sees the opportunity and makes the 991.2gt3 elegant like the gen 1 but win some goodies from the RS.
Edit,
Agree with Macca that's unlikely. IMO a missed opportunity to take advantage of current market.

These numbers would be exceptionally well suited to a manual 6 spd for the new GT3. Hope they don't try to use a taller Ring and Pinion than the one in the 911R. 911R gearing with this motor should be close to ideal (might give up a tad of potential Vmax, but great acceleration and track set-up).

I am with Macca, you won't see solid lifters on a street car. The days of manual valve adjustment for street cars are over...

IMO, if they got rid of the teeth altogether it would look way better. Very gt4 like, but way better.

I do think the production street car will look somewhat different without the larger cup front splitter, wider fenders, graphics and tow hook eye etc.
No much space left for a number plate (for those of us for which its legal requirement!).

Edit: But this is a racecar offcourse, it needs some crap to go fast, and it does not need to be pretty like a streetcar :-)

While cleaning the man's toilet of the residue from someone having diarrhea, I overheard that the GT3R engine has a completely new oiling system compared to the current GT3 engine. The current GT3 engine is version 1, current GT3RS, 911R engine is version 1.5. The race engine in the GT3R is versions 2. The .2 GT3's engine will be an improvement over the race engine and will be considered as versions 2.5.
i don' t think GT3.2 Cup has the same
engine as .1RS

And you are the fool dude.
Had you put in 'GT3 Cup' instead of GT3 in your first post, you would have been the hero. Now it's Zero instead.
Myself, and many others, had been saying since March that the .2 GT3 will be the Geneva 2017 car, what part of it you didn't get?
