Chris Harris Drives The Tuthill Porsche 993 RSK | A 4.0L Nostalgia Machine

[@Steinbolt]

I lost the VHS of this years ago, glad to see one survived and better quality than the over watched version I had. Thanks for posting.

[@JeremiBulakowski]

My older brother overrecorded adult film on this VHS. Oh boy, I cried the whole weekend when I found out.

I had a copy of this but my dad taped over it with half an episode of Red Dwarf and The Terminator. 😢

It's just wherever Chris is. Like the old Chris Harris with cars youtube that's defunct

[@MH-ev3wr]

Journalism? Most of the videos Harris does these days are just ads for the cars he's selling on his website. A "review" isn't journalism. Don't get me wrong - they're great, but they're ads. This video, while great, is an ad for his mate Richard Tuthill.

[@JelloTypeR]

Didn’t this come on a VHS tape with Car and Driver in August ‘96? It received the Basic Instinct treatment and was worn out from constant rewinding/playing that moment. Sharon Stones snatch and a 8k 2nd-3rd gear change. Perfection on both c(o)unts.

[@WeeFreeMan78]

How the crew managed to complete this video and how Chris kept a straight face for over 30 seconds, deserves a standing ovation 👏👏👏

Awesome production, solid informational with entertainment and enthusiasm and Mr Harris doing his dance with the right footwear. Thank you Crankshaft '96. I really thought that drift was going to go thru that puddle of water...

if you donßt like Chris´videos before watching, then what are you even doing with your life?

[@institutmorningkiss]

I used to have a 993 RS and this addresses it's lacklustre engine, making it possibly the best sports car in the world. Whatever the price is, it's worth it. I'd have this over, well, anything - even a Mclaren F1 or GMA T50 ! Love how the interior is very special, yet resists falling into the prissyness of a Singer. Bravo Phil and Tuthill !

[@jonnyboy4340]

Missed this when it first hit the tube. Bloody awesome (as always)…Harris at his best, and novel new style hat too…

[@lsejnoha]

I have loved your videos ever since I got my first real sports car. I have owned BMW's, Porsche's and many other sports cars. Please keep the videos coming. Thank you for all that you do!

[@kylem324]

Does this have a modern ECU and ignition? Very cool build, just scratching my head at the power figure on a four valve head as there are other builds of 4-4.2l air cooled that have put down high 3xx’s whp. Those builds credited modern ecus and ignition for unlocking a lot of power. These 2valve builds had ported or aftermarket “xtreme” cylinder heads that are purported to flow similar to these 4 valve heads on the intake side, but comparatively be a bit restricted on the exhaust side.

[@jayhinchliffe5020]

This is a brilliant intro great as always !

[@matthewkuhl79]

993 and 997 are the prettiest 911s imo 🙂

[@Mark-dz8zf]

Perfection on so many levels…congrats

[@elcasho]

I've heard rumours the new 996 will be a beauty

[@eurotrashdtm]

Amazing. Curious as to why they set the rev limit relatively low at 8k rpm. With the 130mm rods and 80.4mm crank, you should be able to safely rev to 8600-8800rpm, similar to 997.2 GT3 RS4.0.

[@Talynen]

One big problem with high RPM on the singer DLS was cooling. I would guess that's also a limiting factor here.

[@slimzy1990]

Stunning creation

[@PumaSpeedster]

[@dthdthdthdth]

Why is the steering wheel mounted off center? Watch the column mounting plate behind the wheel when CH turns quickly at 4:12. You can also watch the top of the wheel as it dips lower. Never seen that trickery before, what purpose does it serve?

Next week we're heavily into second-hand Rovers basically in Nottingham. Lots and lots of good advice for you to pick up if you want to. 'till then, see you then, drive safely, goodnight.

[@rowanhawklan9707]

[@TheAlanFish]

Why is the steering wheel offset from center? I'm guessing to ease visibility of the gauges possibly? Looks very odd though, and this is easiy accomplished with a simple steering column extension.
