Very nice project with superb attention to detail,,the only thing I do not quite understand is where the 993RS part comes in?...OK it has a single mass flywheel.

I would trade my 993 C4S for that in a second. Much faster, much lighter and much more capable than any 993. Much rarer too, obviously. Very cool.
