EXTERIOR
This fantastic IROC tribute looks resplendent in Mexico blue – one of the signature colours from the Porsche palette that duplicates the car campaigned by Hulme. McCluskey and Pearson in the '74 series. Starting life in the US. the bodyshell and chassis build was carried out by the respected Zuffenhaus organisation in Charlotte. North Carolina. Starting with a clean LHD 1974 911 shell. the team first carried out a myriad of chassis modifications to carry aftermarket 935 front and rear suspension leading to this sensational bodywork arrangement symbolic of the RSR IROC era.

The paintwork presents beautifully in a uniform and consistent hue all around the car. not often the case with track optimised examples with only some light peppering to the front air dam of real note.

INTERIOR
Focused is the word to describe upon climbing aboard this track special. nestling down into a low slung Recaro bucket seat with the familar 5 dial arrangement in front. Fitted with a custom four-point interior roll cage accompanied with harnesses. the widened and modified bodyshell was stripped back bare before powder-coating the interior. engine bay and under bonnet areas for maximum durability and protection. The 993 RS gearbox may appear slightly out of place in the cabin although any concerns are soon quashed as it is a joy to operate – positive. slick and intuitive; it is matched to the 3. 9 engine perfectly.

As well as an Alpine head unit with USB compatibility there is a host of track inspired tech available with data logging. G meter and in car camera.

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
As with the rest of this incredible 911. the 3. 8-litre flat six engine was specified with no regard to cost. Based around 964 engine cases and built by NineMeister (9M) in Warrington the dyno showed peak power of 405 bhp at 7800 rpm with a stunning 452Nm of torque at 5140 rpm.

While this was going on. a new Porsche 993RS G50/31 transmission was sourced from Porsche Germany. complete with steel synchros. Porsche Motorsport 40/65 differential and RS short shift kit. The 1974 rear section was replaced with the rear section of a 964 to take the upgraded transmission: this was a huge project complete with a subsequent change to relocate a 964 oil tank system and accommodate a 993 exhaust with side mufflers.

WHEELS. TYRES & BRAKES
An adjustable Smart Racing dual master cylinder controls the big 993 C4S front calipers. with 917 derived Porsche 930 calipers at the rear. The rear also features RSR reproduction handbrake calipers.

Wheels are 17” Zuffenhaus Fuchs. as used on Singer Design Porsche 911s. with Toyo R888′s on each corner.

HISTORY FILE
Built by a passionate Porsche enthusiast the initial plans began almost 9 years ago to create an IROC masterpiece to suit both road and track. It also had to hold more than 2 people from time to time. so the owners daughters could share the experience! The owner shared his thoughts and plans on the well known Pelican Parts USA forum which subsequently became one of the most subscribed threads on the site.

Having recently made the trip over to the UK. the car was sent immediately to Ninemeister for an Inspection / refresh with a fine tooth comb. A comprehensive list of electrical and mechanical work was checked and tested with parts replaced or renewed without consideration for cost; a significant amount of love and care has been invested to ensure longevity are at the core of this unique project.
