Your not going sell many if any, it’s a personal project you are building for yourself, but it’ll be too expensive for what it is and never have a resell value more than a regular 997. A 4 litre still ain’t a Metzger and will never be anywhere as good or even close to being as good.

I don’t leave many comments but have to chime in here. This the first time I ever heard someone talk sense about the scoring issue. I agree 100%. You are a smart man.

Love the 997 - a proper rebuild to 4 litres (or more), with Nikasil liners, titanium rods and some head/cam work is what’s really needed.

I've seen this car a couple of times in Charlton, though it looks a little different from that last time that I did. If this is going to cost GT3 money or more, you have to be quite dedicated to pay that.

That's all good but I would strongly suggest you don't go 4.1 litre supercharged with the engine. The M96 and M97 engine has two significant weak points when going for big power, the crankshaft is one but mainly it's the capacity of the oil pump. The pump is absolutely tiny compared to the Mezger engine and it just can't cope with big power outputs, especially if used on track. I wouldn't go above 400 bhp personally. That's why Porsche stuck with the Mezger for the 997 Turbo and GT3 models! Interestingly the oil pump on the subsequent 9A1 engine is also huge.

GT3RS (which he is trying to copy) has a widebody. Also there are much more differences between a base C2 or C2S over a GT3 or GT3RS. He could have gotten a GT3 and spend money on some JRZ/MCS coilovers and drop in a 4L or 4.2L stroker kit for more power. This is all show and no go.

Very cool sounds amazing a bit like my project DTC although Ive gone a bit more extreme.... especially now I've cut the roof off on my KZbin channel 😂

Lower mileage .1s are actually the ones you want to stay away from if you're afraid of IMS and bore scoring.

Man, I love everything about that 997 apart from the green centre section. Great video. Looking forward to seeing their progress.

No such thing as a cheap Porsche just cheap examples. But if you buy cheap you pay more in repairs

“It’s heavily modified”…body kit and wheels? Aesthetically looks cool, but still has a long way to go before it’s faster than a Mezger GT3. I think perhaps I would have held off on this feature until he has the engine and performance mods done. Right now it’s all show.

@RollingSlowMedia 4 ай бұрын

We can revisit and see how far it's progressed. I think that would make for a good follow up video.

@iluvcakes19 2 ай бұрын

At least put on new tires... And how much would a set of coilovers have been? Bro could have got those instead of the paint job or seats/steering wheel.

@@iluvcakes19 what makes you think I don't have coilovers or tyres 😅?

Good review but what a waste. He's only done cosmetic "upgrades" to a Carrera.

@andrew1henderson1983 4 ай бұрын

Can’t take this seriously, track focused but no mention of suspension, brakes or tyres (horrible tyre decals) universal side skirts and a universal front lip with some 3d printed bit. Fake Recaro , GT3 replica body kit , should have just fitted an aero bumper and accepted it for what it is . I’ll bet my own 911 that thing never get a 4.1 . Don’t get me wrong it’s a cool modified 997 but it’s definitely not a track focus quicker than a GT3 build .
