  • In this episode of Raj's Garage, I tackle the issues plaguing my Guard's Red Porsche 964. Expert mechanic Paul from Northway Porsche works his magic, uncovering a massive surprise along the way. A few modifications and choice upgrades are carried out whilst the car is in Northway's hands.
    I also headover to Porsche Reading to check on the progress of my upcoming 992 GT3 RS, questioning if it'll actually arrive in time for Christmas?
    This is very much a Porsche packed episode as I also introduce my 997.1 GT3 and my 993 Turbo to the channel - more updates on these cars soon!

    I'd send it to paint, get the engine out send that to northway for a refresh, exhaust, itb's and remap and that will be a awesome car. Keep up the good work Raj

    Given that the 992 GT3RS won't be here for December, are we going to see another Dec purchase? 👀👀Didn't guess that the engine would be from a 993 in the slightest, that's strange. ITB's on the 993 engine would sound amazing! 🔥🔥Could we potentially get a dedicated video of you driving all your Porsches? I feel it would be lit with your collection!

    Woooooow what a bummer to have the "wrong" engine in the car 🤐 Especially for the C2 which is so much more desireable than my C4. I'll stick to this journey, keep it up, and props to everyone working on this car for being absolutely professional. I'm amazed.
    How did they manage to install the RS flywheel without doing any other mods to the car? I also have the RS flywheel, and it is stalling alot aswell if I don't use heel and tow.

      thanks for watching and the feedback. I'm quite excited to find out that the car has a 993 engine, it's definitely a better and stronger engine to modify. RS clutch is perfect - no issues whatsoever 👍🏼

      @@rajsangha911 totally get your point with the power gain. The 964 engine is quite fragile and a pain to do any mod to it. I now found a loose vacuum line think that this might have been the issue with the clutch stalling the engine… Will have to find out when the weather improves. I can’t wait to see what you will be doing to yours 🙏

    Raj. Take a look at the interview of Colin Belton of Ninemeister. He says the Varioram is hands down the best system for the 993. This statement is from a man who says Porsche covertly bought a crank from him (that he had developed for his 4LT race car) and shoved it into their GT3.
    Watch his interview below:

    Prime for a 993 3.8 conversion. But that is a “silly amount of money” idea.
    So. Exhaust from FVD or similar. Headers. Remap. And you’ll see 300Bhp.
    You may as well go down the full “RS” recreation route now. The 964 is the easiest Porsche to recreate an RS version of… Especially as it’s being repainted, you can then even fit the lightweight glass.
