EXTERIOR
This superb Cup car was supplied new by Porsche Motorsport in classic and aptly named Grand Prix white, a popular choice for teams as a blank canvas to then add individual race livery and team colours. The bodywork presents very well after a full re-spray in November 2021, with a glossy depth to the paint all round, and retains it’s matching shell, boot lid and door numbers along with all of it’s lightweight glass.
The air jack connection fitted during the main restoration process, linking the two rams located inside the cabin and one in the bonnet compartment.
INTERIOR
With only one purpose in mind the interior of the Cup car is minimal; raw and very noisy! A huge amount of Porsche racing expertise went into the Carrera Cups to remove weight and build a genuine race car that could be bought direct from the manufacturer.
At the centre, and more obviously, a Recaro SPG race seat (passenger also currently in place) was fitted along with an alcantara race steering wheel. The A/ C and radio was naturally removed along with sun visors, headlining, central locking, alarm, electric mirrors as well as any interior sound deadening and carpets. Driver and passenger headsets have been fitted which can be controlled by the once used heated rear window lever.
More subtly Porsche removed tabs in the body for mounting interior parts along with the petrol flap lever; replaced with a wire loop such was their commitment to weight loss. The car even has a bespoke lightweight wiring harness, fabric door pulls and panels, manual windows along with 3mm lightweight side and rear glass.
ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
The engines in the early Cup cars were all produced with 260 horsepower using the 3. 6 litre M64/ 03 units. They were picked from the standard production line and specially balanced and blue printed then selected further for identical power. ECUs were reprogrammed for extra output utilising 98 octane fuel with the engine hot air blower removed and replaced with a plastic tube.
Still retaining its matching number engine, and fully rebuilt to the same exacting standard, it is coupled to a ’91 spec G50/ 10 five speed manual gearbox with competition gear ratios, steel synchros and matched together with a lightweight flywheel and sports clutch as well as LSD. Solid engine mounts and harder rubber transmission mounts reduced any unnecessary movement under the higher loads generated on the race track.
The chassis runs specially designed Bilstein “Cup” shocks exclusively designed for Porsche and the 964 Cup. These were combined with Eibach progressive rate springs, larger and adjustable anti roll bars along with stiffer control arm bushings and Cup specific strut bearings. Ride height was reduced and rear camber eccentrics allow for improved suspension geometry setup all of which make up its superb looks and supreme driving characteristics.
WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
Timeless Cup 1 wheels present in excellent condition wrapped in nearly new Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 rubber.
Cup cars were fitted with larger Turbo specification brake calipers and discs attached to aluminium front hubs to reduce weight. Discs, pads and black calipers remain in good condition and are subtly visible through the alloy wheels.
HISTORY FILE
Initially used to promote the 1991 French Carrera Cup series (poster car) this was the only 964 Cup to race as a 1990 unlike the other 49 cars being 1991 builds.
The car then went on to compete in the last two rounds of the 1994 Belcar series with the Belgium team TV TWEE at Spa and Zolder. However a stalemate over ownership at then end of 1994 saw the car end up in long term storage until 2007 which makes the low mileage shown at 2, 379 Miles justifiable after only being part of 2 races and some promotion work. Recommissioned with a fully rebuilt engine the car would then be brought to the UK where it underwent a cosmetic restoration including a full repaint. Onced finished the car has been used sparingly with the last major service carried out by Precision Porsche 05/ 07/ 2022 including fresh spark plugs, valve cover gasket, fuel filter and brake fluid change.
Included with the vehicle is a Certificate of Authenticity, service records and photographs of the full rebuild that the car underwent from 2007.
An incredible opportunity to purchase a in-period Cup car that is now road registered and in excellent mechanical and cosmetic condition.
