    Next GT3 3.8-litres

    Now the New 911 GT3 RSR have a 3.8-litres enigine.

    I guess the next GT3 are going to use that too, but the question is when?

    Re: Next GT3 3.8-litres

    You are just guessing or any reason for that?

    Re: Next GT3 3.8-litres

    Hi !

    the new RSR doesn't have 3,8 ltr.
    Isn't it?


    Where do you have this info from ?
    Can i read this on an official web page ?

    The 997 GT3 RS is the car to homologize (?)
    the RaceCar. And (my new ) GT3 RS (arrive at January '07) will not posess 3,8 ltr.

    true, it is 996 based, but the engine of the 997 RSR is also 3.8L.

    Re: Next GT3 3.8-litres

    Hi,

    the SEBAH-car is not an Original-Porsche.
    This car is only based on.

    "Porsche (base Porsche 996 GT3 RS) "

    Here in Germany we have some tuners, offering
    3,8 or up to 3,9 ltr. engines.
    Myself has had an 964 RS with a 3,8 ltr. engine, some years ago.

    You can modify your porsche with an 3,8 ltr with
    parts from Porsche. These parts are from the 964er 3,8 ltr RSR.

    And - please read my post above - the upcoming
    RSR will have a 3,6 ltr-engine.

    Re: Next GT3 3.8-litres

    For those who ordered the upcoming GT3, how do you feel that the 997 GT3 MKII may use a 3.8 powerplant? Does it bother you or do you not care?

    Re: Next GT3 3.8-litres

    I don't care one bit. There always have been and there always will be evoution of the 911 models. Adding 200cc is not a revolution. Probably similar horsepower gain as from 996 GT3 to the 997. If that was going to bother me I would never be able to buy a Porsche. Because there would always be a faster one in the future... Every model has its charm. The 996 GT3 is the last one without PASM and Traction Control. Maybe the 997 GT3 is the last one under 1,400kg. Buy the car you want now!

    If only I could afford to right now

    Re: Next GT3 3.8-litres

    i don't care whether the mkII will be a 3.8L or not. For me personally, i think the the power offered by the 3.6l engine is more than sufficient. The possibility of the extra low end torque given by the 200cc larger engine displacement will not bother my decision on order the GT3 now.
