Would like more details on this to see where you got this information from;

The only thing that seems to claim that the 991 GT3 R engine = the G-generation motor in the RS is press releases and news reports based on them claiming the GT3 R motor is the same as the RS - although does that mean they're the same because they're both 4.0 liter 9a1 derivatives? No one disputes that.

I wouldn't be surprised if the GT3 R engine is actually a lot closer to the 991.2 GT3 motor and why Preuniger made comments like; "The engine is an evolution of the 4.0-liter naturally aspirated flat-six used in the 911 GT3 RS, which itself is a stroked version of the last GT3's motor. This new motor is actually largely similar to those used in current 911 race cars, including the brand new RSR."

Old posts from Macca also seems to show otherwise.
"From G onwards revisions to the MA175/6 engines will be based on learnings from the Motorsport engine which is a MA17x derivative..."

Nothing hypocritical about attacking someone that's attacking you. Further, I never implied that he's a red-headed stepchild. I implied that about the future place for the 991.1 GT3's in Porsche's historical GT lineup.

Perhaps you should have read more before commenting since all you just did was demonstrate your entire argument was based on a falsehood due to you not bothering to read the earlier posts.

Um. Yeah. No.

I can keep going. I have serious insomnia and nothing better to do right now lol

You’re just a liar in addition to being explosively rude now lol

Um. Yeah. Yes.

Red-headed stepchildren can still be lovable. Meaning he can still love his 991 RS regardless of the posts I've made about it.

Don't call people liars because you're too lazy to read the whole thread and take single posts out of context.

Unconscionable

Doesn’t change anything. Your heavy and repeated use of sarcasm is still attacking. You’re just a troll lol

Who cares? An RS is an RS. If you like it, buy it. These debates are constantly posted here and seem to reach the exact same conclusion every time...

We can start with this. Or how about this...

Also, if you think the adms were high on the .1RS hold on to your jock straps. The .2RS adms will be higher. A lot. That’s after VIPs get theirs. Short production run.

if no good dump it
too much thinking, exhausting

I'm not claiming you're wrong - but neither of the articles you linked is conclusive. I'd like to see the technical details to see if the Motorsport engine in the GT3 R is actually the .2 motor and not the .1. The press release I found from one of your links says the GT3R engine is "largely identical" to the RS. I still have some doubts because all the specs they go on to list are simply the specs shared between all the 4l 9a1 models; displacement, bore/stroke, technology, etc and reading AP's comments gives me pause.

Using similar logic to this press release's spartan details one could easily make the claim that the 991.2 GT3 motor and the 991.1 RS motor are the same since they're both 4.0l 9a1 derived units with the same bore and stroke when in fact there's numerous substantial differences.

From my reading of APs comments, and the opinions of Macca along with this statement above, I have very little reason to believe the G engine in the RS is the same as the engine in the GT3 R. Considering the majority of what I have read has stated that the RS engine was never put in the race cars - that lines up with this information.

A couple vague press releases don't prove otherwise. I believe the GT3 R engine is more than likely what made it's way to the 991.2.

The car goes fast and it’s fun to drive, not sure what it matters if it’s ABCDEFG .....gee wiz drive the cars. Buy a car and not expect a return ......the return is the joy of the drive.

Is this thread still going on? People still debating which car is best? Sorry- was out all evening having a blast driving my current RS instead of pontificating which future car MAY be better. Good luck chasing the latest and greatest. I’m having too much fun now.
