All Brands of Road and Race tyres Specialist Advice on all things motorsport
I would have liked to commence this Prose sprouting on about our list of exciting events locked down for our 2014 40th Anniversary club celebrations. Sigh…not to be - not just yet. The reality is that we hold a strong belief that a centre piece of our 40th Anniversary Dinner / Grand weekend celebration – be that on located on the Gold Coast, Brisbane or the Sunshine Coast – should have a special one off motorsport event as a centre piece. A worthy objective, but it seems increasingly difficult. I’m not referring to a typical Lakeside Sprint or the 400m Drags or even a trip to one of Phil Harts kaleidoscope gymkhanas at QR, as special and as nauseatingly head spinning as they may be. We are looking for something a bit more ‘one off’ and a Porsche Club Qld 40th birthday bash without a decent motorsport event just doesn’t seem right. I’m sure the early fathers of this great club would agree, but the truth is, as much as we invest time into organising it, it is increasingly hard to bring a worthy event together. As you may know, one of our draft plans to celebrate our 40th, was for the motorsport enthusiasts in our club to participate in the rarely held Noosa Hill Climb through the National Park mid-2014, in conjunction with a social weekend in Noosa, overnighting with a dinner function on the Saturday night. A great idea, but we are now told that the MG club has withdrawn from the midyear Noosa Hill Climb event, jeopardising the running of the event. In anticipation of such issues, we have been working on alternatives such as holding a unique Sunshine Coast street ‘autocross’. Meetings have been held with the Police and local council, who have offered their full support and involvement. A ‘circuit’ has been conceived and involves blocking off public roads and brings with it a range of logistical and liability issues. We will continue to work through the many issues with a small, local, dedicated team drawn from within our club ranks. Thank you Jeremy and Merry and we will keep pushing on. Maybe a Sunshine Coast street autocross is going to make it in time for our 42st anniversary? We will see. Plan C and perhaps as of this moment, the most likely outcome will be that PCQ will dovetail with the 2014 ‘Tour De Course’ Motorsport Rally. A light-hearted, competitive standard, street car friendly motorsport event, popular with club members and held over a few days involving a weekend. No formal dates have been announced for 2014 as yet, but we may turn this event (with the event organizers full support and agreement) into the 2014 Tour De Course and a PCQ 40th Celebration event. It is looking positive from initial discussions with the event organizers, so stay tuned.

Our additional PCQ entrants would enhance this event (any event – but I am biased). We would consider Sanctuary Cove as the central base (Partners can shop or fish) and our main venue for the Saturday night formal function. The dates need to be locked down as you could imagine. Initial discussions regarding the motorsport events are that PCQ members will be able to float in and out of a mix of auto events across Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The Tour De Course format may be better known to many PCQ members as the Dutton’s Rally from a decade ago. Ohhh, we had certainly had a ball with that one! While we have 11 months to get this 40th right, I am mindful of fixating on a PCQ club motorsport event to support our 40th anniversary celebrations. A fair point and this is certainly front of minds, but we will know one way or another shortly. As part of our 40th celebrations, we have arranged with the Noosa Beach Classic Car Club for the 2014 Classic Car Show, for Porsche to be the ‘Marque of the Year’. This is a significant event, supported by a wide array of prestigious marques from around the Southern Hemisphere. This will be held on the 5th October 2014 and may I suggest to the concourse fraternity within our club that it’s time to start preparing.
While our club membership knocks on the door of 500 members, I am encouraged to see the numbers on our PCQ Facebook page continue to climb towards 250. If you are not using our PCQ Facebook page as a PCQ resource, it may be time to pay the page a visit and join in. As President, I frequently receive Porsche Cars Australia Press Releases in my Inbox. In most cases, within 10 minutes I have loaded up all or part of the press release onto our PCQ Facebook page. Press Releases for example on the new Porsche 991 range, the Macan, 918, 991GT3, etc. at the same time the media is officially given the product information. A
few weeks ago, I was sent the PCA press release on the new and utterly gorgeous 991 Targa. The specifications, prices and the enticing Porsche hero photos included. As per standard practice, I loaded the Targa info up onto our club facebook page and in what felt like minutes, I had a phone call from one of our PCQ members who was absolutely blown away with the 991 Targa displayed on my Facebook post. He called to tell me he was – as a result of the post – about to jump in his car and head to our local Porsche Dealership to order a 991 Targa. Fantastic and we look forward to seeing this beautiful machine. This is the power of social media. In other news, Will Holzheimer is making big strides in his recovery and I encourage his PCQ friends to contact him direct to say “Hi” or perhaps pay a visit to his Facebook page. In closing, please keep a watch on the PCQ EVENTS calendar and I encourage you to join in on one of our many 2014 social drives, PCQ club nights or local track day events. Stay safe, drive that Porsche every chance you get and see you through 2014. Dave Beard PCQ President

EDITORS NOTES
Happy New Year everyone and welcome to the first edition of the Porsche Club News for 2014. I hope you all had a happy, safe and enjoyable festive season. As you would all by now be aware, 2014 marks the 40th anniversary of our club. There are numerous anniversary events and celebrations planned and we will be running as many anniversary articles and stories as we can throughout the year. In this edition, thanks to our club life member Mike Gillies, we have included some of the earliest club memorabilia available. This includes the first invitation letter sent to Porsche owners in Brisbane asking them to join ”The First Queensland Porsche Motor Club” following the inaugural committee meeting back on Tuesday the 18th of June 1974! Mike received a copy of this letter from the then Club President Greg Riddel back in November 1990; this letter is also included as it contains some interesting anecdotes on the initiation of the club and some of the first members. Finally, there is a copy of the first ever Porsche
Club news issued in April 1977! The intent, content and core values of the newsletter were identical to those of our current magazine: To communicate our enthusiasm for all things Porsche, through news, technical articles and other services. The newsletter also shows that we had access to some pretty special cars from our very own club members, which is also true today. We would like to run more of these early newsletters over coming issues, so if you have any stored in your cupboards somewhere, please send me a copy. Being the Editor of this magazine has been an enormous pleasure and honour over the past 3 and half years and I think I have managed to continue Bob Gray’s lead in constantly striving to improve the quality of our magazine. At times it has been a challenging role, but always a very fulfilling one. As Editor, I have had many extraordinary opportunities and experiences that don’t necessarily avail themselves to general membership. I been able to meet a lot more club members, Porsche enthusiasts
and industry people, as well as get access to and drive some great Porsches during my time as Editor. And thanks to the addition of Rachel Place as Assistant Editor, the workload on the magazine has significantly decreased since Rachel took on the artistic layout of the magazine. So thank you Rachel. There does however come a time for all Editors to stand aside and let someone new with fresh ideas and enthusiasm to take over the reins to continue the development of our great magazine. So it is my intention to stand down at this end of my current term as Communications Director. Over the coming months I will be looking for someone to take over my role and of course I will continue to support this person during the hand-over and into the first editions of the magazines under their leadership. So if you interested in becoming the new Communications Director, please come and see me or give me a call on 0421 271 029. Sheldon Arkinstall Communications Director

As we go to press, the first of the Motorsport events will have been run and at the time of writing, the numbers are looking good. We are trying a new format this year following feedback received from the recent survey, from which we received 108 responses. We will summarize the results and circulate them shortly. The cost and participation remain the main hurdles for us to overcome this year and to this end, we are looking at some lower cost events such as midweek and half day sprints. We are also establishing relationships with other clubs and to date have had cooperation from the BMW club and the HRCC, which is very encouraging. We will attend the HRCC summer track day at Morgan Park on the 15th and 16th of February and I believe several cars are going up for what promises to be an excellent event, as they offer training on day one and sprints on the second day. In addition, several members from the BMW club will attend our first event at Lakeside.
CONTROL
Also as a result of the survey, we will be providing more low speed events such as Autocross and Happy Laps for those wishing to get a taste of motorsport and experience the potential of their cars, in a safe and controlled environment. The competition rules will remain unchanged this year. The classing system relies on the honesty of the participants to correctly state the power and weight ratings for their car, on which the competition classes are based. So I ask that these be reported accurately. On a separate, but related matter, I believe the club owns a set of scales for weighing vehicles. If you know where they are, can you please give me a call so that they can be made available to interested members? We will also be applying stronger focus on safety this year and will be providing orientation and training to new entrants where it is required. I strongly recommend that those thinking of entering the clubs motorsport activities for the
TOWER
first time to obtain experience through one of the providers of advanced driving courses that will be available at each event. If we can put together a group who are interested, a discount can probably be negotiated. Due to the amount of work involved with setting up track days and the requirements of the tracks, we will need to move the cut-off date for entries out from the present “day before at 5pm”, to a few days out so that we can meet deadlines etc. This will be instituted for our next event. I look forward to a fun and safe year and as a club, we are only as good as the participation of our members. I value any and all feedback so that our track days can be made more userfriendly. So please feel free to contact me at any time.
Ian Gall Motorsport Director
Changes to Licence Requirements for QR Hi All, I’m not sure how many of you have already noticed but when you renew what was previously your AASA license via the QLD Raceways management, you will now be issued with a QLD Raceways license and not a AASA license. What the difference? 1) Insurance - there is no difference with regard to insurance. The same policy that was held through AASA is now purchased directly by QR management 2) Racing – if you intend to race interstate then the change will affect you. The new QLD Raceways license will only hold reciprocal rights at Winton and Wakefield Park race tracks. If you intend on racing at tracks other than Winton and Wakefield Park (and other than CAMS hosted race meetings) then you will need to a AASA license. I assume you would renew this directly with AASA. 3) Cost – from what I can gather there is a slight increase for the QLD Raceways license Please contact QR directly if you have any further questions.

Carrera Cup Delivery 2014 Porsche has successfully delivered the new Porsche 911 GT3 Cup race car to its teams ahead of the 2014 Porsche Carrera Cup Australia season. Porsche Cars Australia conducted a four-day training and hand-over event at Sydney Motorsport Park to train teams on servicing and repairing the new car along with the new-to-Carrera Cup Cosworth data system. The teams then spent the final day-and-a-half of the event shaking down and testing their new Type 991 GT3 Cup cars, with the majority to conduct further pre-season testing before the season opening Clipsal 500. “The four-day hand-over event proved hugely successful both for Porsche and for the teams present,” said Porsche Cars Australia Motorsport Manager Cam McConville. “All teams attended the event, where Porsche educated teams on all aspects of the new car from engine, clutch and gearboxes to our new Cosworth data system and damage repair.”

“The feedback from the teams has been tremendous. The car is brilliant to drive, has extraordinary performance and the pneumatic paddle-shift system is a hit with all the drivers, especially with the Elite Class drivers who have been able to extract greater performance out of the car.” Ben Barker, 2013 Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup driver, also attended the test on behalf of Porsche Cars Australia to help drivers adapt to the new machinery. Porsche Carrera Cup Australia will officially begin its 2014 season on February 27 to March 03 for the Clipsal 500 in Adelaide, South Australia. Article and Photos Courtesy Porsche Cars Australia

Women in Motorsport By Nicole Duffel
Nicole Duffell is one of the of the few female members of our club who participates in the various track days we run, we asked Nicole to tell us her story of how she got into motorsport and her experiences since joining the club. “I have always been interested in cars and speed in general and I also have a competitive nature and love sport in general. Add to this the fact that my eldest brother was into drag racing and as a child I used to go and watch him compete, which was my first introduction to motorsport. As a kid I was always mucking around with cars, but never dreamed that I would be in a Porsche driving on some of Australia’s top race tracks. The opportunity to do so come about when my partner suffered a midlife crisis, bought a Porsche and got bitten by the track bug. The car is a 1977 911 which has been prepared by DHM Motorsport and fitted with a 3.6 liter engine producing 304hp in the old scale at the
18
PORSCHE

back wheels! The suspension and gearbox have also been set up for the track and the car is capable of very quick times. After an initial rather slow and careful introduction to Lakeside, QR and Morgan Park running in a slower run groups and keeping out of everyone’s way and with plenty of encouragement from other members, I was hooked and decided I wanted and needed to develop my skills further. First I went and participated in a driving training day with Paul Stokel, which was something I would advise all “newbies” to do. The instructors made me feel at ease and showed me the correct lines to use and a number of very useful tips that improved my times. The instructors also greatly increased my confidence in my abilities and taught me to drive safely at higher speeds. I now have complete confidence in the car and my ability to compete at a competitive level, whilst keeping within the limits I have set myself. I
have found the “boys”, in what is usually a male dominated sport, have made me feel at home and have been supportive and keen to help me to improve. Special thanks goes to Don Munro and Phil Brook who have encouraged me and helped me to overcome my initial concerns. I find the club’s version of motorsport (which is not full-on racing with all the dangers it poses), offers a very challenging and rewarding experience. I would recommend it to any women out there who “have the need for speed” or just want to enjoy a fun day in good company, with like-minded people enjoying the full potential of their Porsches. The club is running slower speed events this year such as autocross and motorkhana, which are events on smaller tracks at lower speeds, but just as challenging for those who would like to try their skills. So come on girls lets show the boys what were capable of!!

Jim Richards
to drive Porsche Cayman S in Targa Tasmania
Porsche ambassador and tarmac rally specialist, Jim Richards will tackle the 2014 Targa Tasmania in the ultimate mid-engine sports car – the Porsche Cayman S.
“This move to the Porsche Cayman S really recognises that you can take a car off the showroom floor, add some safety requirements and go out and enjoy yourself,” says Richards.
Richards’ 239 kW (325 hp) Cayman S will be equipped with a six-speed PDK dual-clutch gearbox, 3.4-litre six-cylinder boxer engine and Sport Chrono Package.
Richards and his long-time co-driver Barry Oliver will replace their 911 GT2 RS for the Cayman in an attempt for victory in the Showroom Sport class.
“Driving the Cayman S will be a total departure from what I’ve ever driven. Being a mid-engine sports car, the Cayman will provide pin-point handling and require a different style of driving to that of the GT2 RS.
The Cayman S with PDK has an Australian starting price of $144,890 (excluding on road costs).
Having taken eight outright victories previously in the Tasmanian event, the move places the duo in a class catering for production vehicles valued between $100,000 and $200,000 and manufactured after January 01, 2003.
“It shows you don’t need to go out and buy a half a million dollar car to compete in rallies and have a good time. You can go out in a Cayman/Boxster-style car, which has fantastic handling, agility and balance, and hopefully be competitive in your class.”

Preparing Your Car for Track Days
Story and Photos by Ian Gall
If you’re thinking of participating in a club track day and other motorsport events to explore the true potential of your Porsche, there are some things that you should consider so that it can be both a safe and rewarding experience. These tips apply mainly to vehicles other than the GT series, as they generally require little work for the average track day. Don Munro who has over 20 years’ experience, both servicing and preparing Porsche vehicles for motorsport and 6 years’ experience in Porsche Cup racing, gives the following tips to allow you to get the best from your car. Both the Porsches I have owned were prepared by Don with excellent results. Before any motorsport event is contemplated, your car should be give a thorough inspection by someone with the necessary experience, to ensure that it is in a suitable condition to be driven vigorously. The first step is deciding on what tyres to run and your choice will depend on the type of motorsport in which you are going to participate. For motorkhana events, good quality road tyres are ok, but if you want to use your car for track days, then an upgrade to “R” spec (Race specification) tyres are strongly recommended. These are road legal race tyres that are designed to cope with the high speeds, increased braking and cornering loads associated with this type of driving. These tyres have limited tread depth and will wear out much quicker than normal road tyres if used for daily driving, but will allow you to drive to the track, rather than having to use a trailer or have another set of wheels. Once you have increased your skill level, you may wish to move to race slicks, which will give
22
PORSCHE
NEWS
you the ultimate grip, but are of course not road legal. The next thing to be considered, particularly for some of our older Porsches, is a brake upgrade. The early cars up to around 1977 may not have power assistance and this again is strongly recommended; an upgrade is quite a simple process. Brake fluid should also be flushed and replaced with a high temperature “race” specification product to cope with the extra heat generated under sprint conditions. Further upgrades include larger brake calipers from later models or the “Boxter conversion”, with brakes from these cars being grafted on to your early car, larger diameter wheels may be required to enable this, but the results are quite spectacular. Better quality brake pads may also be advisable. From there, we move to the suspension and here, there are many options to consider such as increased diameter torsion bars for early cars, upgraded struts, upgraded sway bars and coil-over shocks for the more adventurous (and wealthy). There is of course a tradeoff, with ride becoming harsher, as cornering performance increases. However, if correctly matched to your car and requirements, an acceptable compromise can be achieved.
First, you must have a fire extinguisher fitted that is accessible to the driver and of course it must be to the required Australian standard and not outside any expiry date. Seat belts must be in good condition and again, it is recommended that you fit at least a four point harness to your car, this will require a harness bar to be fitted and eye bolts to the seat belt mountings both front and rear. Your normal seat belts are retained for road use. An approved helmet is also mandatory and it is strongly recommended that you either purchase or upgrade to one that is Hans device compliant. This is a device that limits the movement of your neck in the event of an accident and whilst not yet compulsory for sprints, is now compulsory for any race event and we believe soon will be for any speed event. The basic clothing requirement for sprints is that you have clothing covering your arms and legs, but it is again recommended that you purchase a race suit with some level of fire protection. You may also wish to install a full or half roll cage, but either will generally require the removal of your rear seats. Race seats will provide you with the necessary support and protection.
Proper setup of the suspension is essential and again this should be undertaken by an expert. A good wheel alignment following any suspension work is essential and this should also be included in your upgrade.
Finally, after discovering that there is just not quite enough power coming on to the straight at QR, you may decide to upgrade your engine, this is a whole different story for another time!
Safety is of course paramount and there are some mandatory items which you must have that are covered in the checklist required for track days, which forms part of the entry documentation.
So, if you are considering experiencing the full potential of your Porsche, call an expert with experience in car preparation. Don Munro is happy to provide guidance and can be reached on 0416138326.

The new Porsche 911 Targa, the new Porsche sports car combining the classic Targa concept of the legendary original, with state-of-the-art roof technology, is premiering at the North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit. This latest generation in the extravagant 911 line-up features the characteristic wide bar in place of the B-pillars, a movable roof section above the front seats and a wraparound rear window with no C-pillar. But unlike the classic models, the roof section on the new Targa can be opened and closed at the push of a button. When the button is actuated, the fully automatic roof system stows the convertible top behind the rear seat system, providing a real spectacle. The rear-biased design of the PTM all-wheel drive fitted as standard is a typical Porsche feature and guarantees that this latest 911 model also offers optimum driving dynamics on all road surfaces and in all weather conditions. With these features, the new 911 Targa is presenting itself as a high-quality, innovative remake of the classic vehicle from 1965. The model shares a great deal in common with the 911 Carrera 4 cabriolet models; up to the front windscreen line, the technology and body of the vehicles is more or less the same. The combination of the wide rear end that is typical of all-wheel drive models, the Targa bar and the dome-shaped rear window gives the latest 911 an extremely sporty appearance and a lowslung profile. As with the predecessor model, the new Targa generation comes in two versions, available exclusively with all-wheel drive. The 911 Targa 4 is powered by a 3.4-litre, 257 kW (350 hp) flat six-cylinder engine. Equipped with the Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK) and Sport Chrono package, the Targa 4 accelerates from zero to 100 km/h in just 4.8 seconds and boasts a top speed of 282 km/h. Its NEDC fuel consumption figures are between 9.5 and 8.7 litres/100 km, depending on transmission, which corresponds to a CO2 emissions level of between 223 and 204 g/km. The top model is the 911 Targa 4S, which delivers 294 kW (400 hp) from a displacement of 3.8 litres. This model reaches a top speed of 296 km/h and with the PDK and Sport Chrono package fitted, accelerates to 100 km/h in 4.4 seconds. Its fuel consumption varies between 10.0 and 9.2 litres per 100 km, depending on transmission, which corresponds to a CO2 level of between 237 and 214 g/km. With these numbers, the Targa 4S is on par with the high standard set by the 911 Carrera 4 cabriolet models in terms of engine and road performance, as well as efficiency. Both sportscars are certified for compliance with the Euro 6 emissions standard. Deliveries of the 911 Targa 4 and Targa 4S to Australia begin in mid 2014, with the 911 Targa 4 priced from $247,900 and the Targa 4S from $285,100.

Do It Standing Up
By Bob Gray
Working on my 968, that is! I installed my 2 post hoist (lift) during the week and the 968 was the first customer. The hoist is a medium lift one, with a max height of 1.8m, achievable at the top of the lifting pads. I would have liked a little more height (I’m 1.81m), but that was all my garage height could accommodate. Compared to crawling around under axle stands on a garage creeper, the difference is night and day! Usually, after a session of working under the car the “old” way, I hobbled up to the house, wet through with sweat and proceeded to collapse in front of the TV. Now? I hardly feel any strain, but have a few ‘nicks’ on the top of my head from forgetting to duck at the appropriate time. From now on I’ll be wearing a cap to provide a little more protection!

Substitute Words and Photos by Tony D’Andrea (and ‘the Who’) “But I’m a substitute for another guy I look pretty tall but my heels are high The simple things you see are all complicated I look pretty young but I’m just back-dated, yeah” - Pete Townsend Ah, the backdate question…..not that old chestnut!!? Why would anyone take apart a completely adequate (and well-engineered), mass produced automobile at no small expense and modify it using earlier panels and trim, happily skipping their way through a minefield of ‘I told you so’s’ and ‘what if’s’…..all for no real financial or competitive gain?
number of old Porsches and Fuchs wheels, for sale in Sicily, maybe abandoned after the last Targa Florio). All the cars I followed up on were inherently full of rust and missing expensive parts. This 1977 Japanese import on the other hand, was complete, factory zinc coated and very tidy. It was however a newer model, in effect an impact-bumper car. In Italy, I remember thinking that I was
Porsche search, though this time not looking for a complete early car, just the front end of one. On a road trip to Monza (the very same weekend of the Formula One race in 2012), I managed to find a fibreglass front and rear of an early 911, as well as a fibreglass long hood. Then on a later trip during same year, I met a 1970’s Sardinia Hill Climbing Champion
Well, you see, I hope to address that very question in the following paragraphs, if for no other reason than to satisfy my own interest to do precisely that. My name is Tony. I am a new member to PCQ, but have been an enthusiast to marque for as long as I can remember. Having just returned to Brisbane recently, I would like to thank the club for making me feel welcome. Queensland hospitality is something rather special. Back to my dilemma. This nagging question of the justification of ‘backdating’ - a term which is used to describe the swapping out of ‘newer’ panels for ‘older’ panels to mid-year and later
chasing something that was unobtainable, with the price of pre-1973 911s climbing and climbing. I sat here in the Brisbane sunshine and contemplated my options. In fact, my decision came quickly, recalling the pain and agony I suffered some years previously in the UK restoring a 1964 MG. The rust issue is far too great an obstacle for one on a budget (and my budget could only afford an unloved pre1973 rolling chassis). I offered what I had for the ‘77, it was accepted and I quickly moved it into storage in Archerfield and I flew home to Rome. So, back in Archerfield, my little acquisition
who was able to supply two front wings and the coveted Fuchs wheels that were required. This gentleman driver wanted to retire to Rio ‘properly’ and he tried desperately to sell me his 1960’s red Alfa GTA for a ‘good’ price. He must have mistaken my accent for someone with far more assets. I would have liked to buy it, what a beautiful car, even for a Porsche guy!! Parts collected and ready to go, alas we set our course to return to Brisbane, with all of our wares. Somehow in the ‘big’ move, the Porsche parts were relegated to the ‘second’ shipment. As the ‘77 was taken out of storage in Brisbane, the parts for the ‘backdate’ were
air cooled cars to ‘re-discover’ the lines of the original 911. If I put things into some sort of context, perhaps then you might see the method in my madness, if method can be found. My journey starts back in December 2009, on holiday in Australia from what was then my home in Italy. A Japanese imported 1977 911S was advertised in Brisbane for a price that was half that of the identical model in Europe. At the time I was looking at cars as far north as Amsterdam (http:// www.stolzeclassiccars.nl) and as far south as Palermo (there seems to be a disproportionate
was parked securely beside a massive slab of a vintage Cadillac (one notable previous owner - Mr Elvis Presley and the current owner - one of the Wiggles, the blue one I think). Half way around the world, I started mapping out my plan. The ‘backdate track-day car build’ idea seemed to be the path to take. The mid-year 2.7s are not sought after, they were not made in small numbers (5,837 coupes)* and they are all plagued with problems right? So a backdate would do the poor chassis a favour by reducing the weight and making that poor motor work less and look better doing it. So, back to my
put into storage in Rome – you see how difficult backdate projects can be? I took it all on the chin as I was once again back in Brisbane and ready to start dismantling the ‘77. My inspections found there seized brake callipers (thanks goes to club member Justin Baldwin for your spare ATE callipers), numerous Japanese ‘fag’ packets, one period alpine stereo with cassette tape lodged inside (dying to hear it!), one drop link on the rear anti-sway bar that had well,…dropped and evidence of ‘play’ in the steering column (a quick fix using a repair sleave sourced from

pelican). So with such a small ‘to do’ list, I was keen to focus on exterior aesthetics. One of the fellow club members, Stan Adler, commented to me in conversation saying, “You know, the alloy bumpers on these midyear cars really aren’t that heavy”. In actual fact, with the rubber trim and paint removed, his comment rang true. Like many Porsche parts, the bumper’s actual weight deceives the eye. In addition, once the paint was removed, in particular with the rear bumper, one is able to see the effort made to shape and form the alloy. I began to see the inherent value of the parts, ultimately deciding to work with them to create a sort of ‘sympatheticbackdate’ (I borrow part of the term from the term ‘sympathetic-restoration’ – an intervention to make something safe and usable without undertaking a full restoration). With the primary objective being to re-discover the line of the car of the 1960’s, this became an exercise of removing rubber (and it’s weight!) from the car’s extremities, removal of the rocker panel trim and any other weight savings that were possible. The only noticeable difference to the car is the deletion of the’ trademark’ bellows. Arguably, the deletion of these this falls under the category of ‘opinion’ (or one’s own proclivities), but one could argue the necessity of the bellow to the ‘Rest of World’ market (the bumper supporting tube struts of my EURO model were solid, hence the bellow would not function in an impact). This deletion however, along with the removal of the rocker panel trim and the ‘tucking’ of the front bumper under the bonnet by 50mm, started to ‘hint’ at the line and delicateness of the early 911s. The removal of the bellow required the bumper to be extended
30
PORSCHE
NEWS
by some 110mm (by welding ends to each bumper), hence making no measurable weight saving. Truth be told, welding this material is not easy, however I was lucky enough to find a welder/fabricator near Brisbane who took on the small assignment without flinching. Filing and fairing is something I am familiar with, having worked on fibreglass dinghies and sailing yachts most of my life. The process is the same for both cars and boats - filing, sanding, painting…then re-sanding and re-painting… until all evidence of intervention disappears. It is a credit to my welder, not having visited the car once, that he was able to complete his work with only one small adjustment. Parts now bolted in place, with a measure of ‘gulf orange’ added for nostalgia and the car takes on a visual lightness not present before. It’s a small victory, perhaps. To me, the narrow body mid-year cars provide an ‘aesthetic bridge’ between the more modern SCs and the early T, E’s. They aspire to be ‘safer’, more ‘secure’ and more relevant, but at the same time share some of the mechanical simplicity and synchronicity offered by the original cars. An ‘RS’ or even an ‘S’ this is not, but there is something tangible, a thread of familiarity, evidence of a continuum that is carried through the entire series of cars to the present day. So, is it justified, is it all worth it? I don’t know, said smiling. Do I like the result? A resounding “Yes!” Have I upset the purists? Most likely. So, that’s two for three, by my count. What is next? A fibreglass duck tail and weight saving where possible in the interior, oh and I promised myself I would remove the factory air conditioning as well. I will, just as soon as it cools down a bit here in Queensland. March is looking promising.

‘s t e r c Se Victoria has a secret. As you cast your eyes over her body, you travel up from the ground, moving over the perfectly rounded hips. You try and avert your gaze, it’s no use. Her lines are flawless, the curves seductive. She pulls you in. You enter her, pushing all the right buttons. As you do she gasps – breathless. She’s grounded now, there’s no avoiding it, no escape, no direction to move except forward. Hidden behind a casting couch at Car Porn Racing sits Victoria, the first RWB Porsche to exist in the Philippines. RWB, which stands for RAUH-Welt Begriff or ‘Rough World Style’ is a Porsche tuner in Japan. Combining European and Japanese tuning elements, an extremely unique piece of art is created by the one and only Nakai-san. He will travel to your part of the world, and build your RWB Porsche in person in a matter of days. The most noticeable and impressive feature of ‘standard’ RWB Porsches is of course the breathtaking width change. Size doesn’t matter; it’s about how you use it.

whilst the rear haunches lower themselves over whopping 18 x 13.5 inch custom Work Meisters, Victoria fills gap with ease. As you see her in the flesh, your heart races, but what truly takes the air out of your lungs are Victoria’s dirty secrets. Car Porn Racing is synonymous with two things. First is their beautiful compulsion to slam everything to the ground on airbags. A full AirREX and AccuAir suspension setup has Victoria sacked deep to the rim in seconds. The second dirty secret was still to be aired when we were shooting this gorgeous model. Victoria is based off a 1994 Porsche Carrera 2 993. The automatic, naturally aspirated 3.6L 6cyl slug was still seated under the enormous championship wing. Ian King, owner of Car Porn Racing had put the final modification to Victoria on hold, so that it wasn’t in pieces for our shoot. The day after we left, the motor and transmission were ripped from the beautiful body and replaced with a 550hp 5.7L LS1 V8 attached to a manual G50 gearbox. Victoria’s interior has had some upgrading
Story: DANIEL SHARP Images: MATYAS FULOP whilst they were at it. Featuring a MOMO Drift steering wheel, Recaro SR7 bucket seats and a Pioneer radio, it has updated the styling in the 90s cabin. Zweite Entwicklung - Second Development. Whilst aesthetically enhanced, Victoria wears no makeup, still retaining the factory Amaranth Violet Paint. There are literally no angles that you can shoot this car poorly from. Each piece of carefully constructed body kit just flows. This street registered and driven (not that there are any modification laws in the Philippines) is a true testament to innovation, build quality and uniqueness. Still or moving, the cars presence stands up to any runway angel. For the grand finale of this set Matyas and I contacted brilliant photographer and post processor James Dean. His editing and composite work is as incredible as the car itself. Whilst in person, Matyas was limited to a Filipino back alleyway, James was able to construct simply mind-blowingly beautiful images in post processing.
