Built to homologate the 3.8-liter RSR for competition in BPR GT3 and GT4 racing, the road-going Porsche 911 Carrera RS 3.8 is essentially a racing car built for use on the road. At its heart is the 3.8-liter normally aspirated Type M64/20 engine producing a factory-rated 300 horsepower at 6,500 rpm along with 262 foot-pounds of torque at 5,400 rpm. The innovative Variocam variable-length intake system from Porsche and newly designed forged pistons of a reduced height (thanks to a relocated wrist pin) helps keep piston weight below that of the standard 3.8-liter engine. This distinctive powerplant also sports dual oil coolers and lightened rocker arms, among a host of additional upgrades that heightened the performance of the car, all befitting its role as a homologation special. Power is managed through a Type G50/31 six-speed manual transmission; the gearing was optimized for acceleration to the rear wheels, rather than top speed.Suspension upgrades implemented on the RS 3.8 included a front strut brace, ball-joint front damper mounts, and adjustable anti-roll bars with five positions for the 24-millimeter front bar and three positions for the 21-millimeter rear piece. Porsche also fitted a limited-slip differential and anti-lock brakes sourced from the 993 Turbo and ADB traction control. Big 265/35ZR-18R tires in the back and 225/40ZR-18 tires in the front are mounted on specially made 18-inch Speedline for Porsche three-piece, light-alloy wheels with magnesium centers, which are 9 inches wide in the front and 11 inches wide in the back.The black interior is accented by color-matched details; it is slightly less spartan in its accommodations than typical examples thanks to the inclusion of factory air conditioning and the specification of the Japanese equipment group, which provided airbags, and electric windows to all JDM Carrera RS orders. Thinner window glass, an aluminum front boot lid and doors, composite Recaro seats, and lightweight interior door panels with traditional fabric pulls round out the purpose-built appeal of this road-legal track beast. The exterior of this special 993 is made more desirable by the factory-ordered 471 option code, which substituted the standard aero package for that of the track-only Carrera RS Clubsport. A massive rear deck spoiler borrowed from the Clubsport provides greater ventilation to the 3.8-liter flat-six and offers additional downforce.As the rarest and most focused iteration of the Type 993 platform, the Carrera RS is often considered not only the most exciting to drive but also the most collectible 911 of its era. Just over 1,100 examples were built, of which none were originally imported to the United States. Today, very few 993 Carrera RS models have made their way stateside. Many of those are kept out of sight in private collections, making this example a rare opportunity to own a brilliant and highly sought-after machine that will not disappoint on either road, track, or in a private collection.
