Asked about the spec and any nonstandard parts. Spec seems fluid. I thought the clubsports came with 430hp, article on PH quotes 450hp with later evo turbos like 993 turbo s. They didn't mention that or the nonstandard exhaust when I enquired. Probably need an expert to check it over for any changes, if you can see past the oil cooler!
Bluto is back!!!!
- Thread starter BlueNGT
- Start date
Didn't the early models have the Aluminium doors, and a power upgrade to compensate for the weight of steel doors of the later model ?
That is the case Steve, ali doors on the first edition, back to regular 993 steel doors for the Evo.
Thing is the engines were basically the X50 option of the 993TT. 430bhp up to '97 model year (aug'96) then 450bhp after that as mentioned earlier...same as standard as 993 TT "S".
So, although the power upgrade may compensate for the lack of ali doors, it seems unlikely this was the reason it was fitted to the Evo, when the regular 993TT was available as 450bhp with the X50 option.

Right as always Steve..................
Bluto has the light doors, early Clubsport , nice fresh engine just before i sold it ,by Fearnsport ..................everything spot on + bigger turbos as stated [ dont know many GT2 still with small ones] carrillo rods and 996 gt3 oil pump ,all in the interest of longevity
Anyone really interested it also was sold with virtually all new suspension and very clean 380 mm discs [ standard sincluded if u wnated ]
Not pumping huge BHP when it left me IIRC abt 480 ish

John, I am sure you know your cars, but was it a real CS?
The only thing is, you can take a £35-50k 993TT and spend £10-20k on body parts and wheels to make it appear to be worth considerably more. There are a few of these around.
(even less £££ if the parts are replica).
