997 GT3 Touring

[Roro]

I saw one a yellow one with duck and Gt3 front at Classic remise in Düsseldorf way back. Only pics are on this thread so took me a while to find it....lovely looking thing.

That looks really nice, looks like the owner had a clear vision of what he wanted with that car and it looks great as a result. I'm still leaning towards a Carrera lid than a Ducktail though

duck tail is far simpler but you loose a chunk of rear downforce, that can be clawed back in part with a rear diffuser, or just fit the carrera lid

dont know if Werks One still sell their 997 rear diffuser

the lid and motor dont weight that much but it's a GT3 fella for a reason

I've emailed Werks One to ask about a diffuser for a 997 GT3, will update if I hear anything back 8)

I heard back and they have no plans for a proper GT3 diffuser, they don't see any demand for it

They said the aero on the GT3 is well balanced from factory unlike the Carrera aerodynamics, so they never bothered developing a diffuser for the GT3. I didn't ask what about a GT3 that has no rear wing... as then you're talking lots of time and big bucks to have something bespoke developed. I'll wait for someone else to R&D that, if ever

I'm sure there was a thread on PH, a 996.1 GT3 owner that deleted his rear wing, I just can't find it!

Roro asked the exactly the same question on PH about a month ago so already knows/knew the answer :thumb:

I did? I don't remember that

I was looking at that PH thread, I think the car looks great without the wing, very sleeper

Are you not rroro on there?

Yeah rrroro, but don't remember every post I've ever made on The Internet somewhere. Or even what I had for breakfast this morning
