1997 PORSCHE 911 RSR (SOLD)

The RSR 3.8 was developed by the Porsche Motorsport department specifically to support Porsche customer race team entries into International Endurance events like the American IMSA GT series and European GT series. Out of the box, the RSR was intended to compete in 24-hour endurance events like Daytona, Spa and Le Mans. Standard RSR equipment included full welded Matter roll cage, an alloy bonnet, a front strut brace, fully ball-jointed suspension, two-way adjustable Bilstein suspension, special front spoiler and adjustable rear wing, fender flares, a single racing seat and harness, battery switch and a fire extinguishing system.

The M64/75 Type 3.8 RSR engine was an extensively reworked race-bred engine with stronger, lighter valve gear, rockers, high-lift cams and special pistons and barrels. To maximize performance, the inlet plenum and exhaust manifolds were also thoroughly revised and mated to six individual throttle bodies. Power was delivered through a single-mass flywheel to a unique RSR six-speed Type G50/34 manual box..
