Porsche 993 Turbo S in Sydney
Porsche 993 Turbo S
At the start of 2010 I was fortunate to take some photos of one of a very unique Porsche 993 Turbo S. I saw the car first at one of the Burrows Drive Days at Eastern Creek Raceway and not long after that we met again to take some proper shots of it.
During the second to the last year of production of the 993 (1997), Porsche offered the 993 Turbo S. Ultimately 183 cars were sold. The Turbo S is a high-spec Turbo including a power upgrade to 424 hp (SAE) for the American market and to 450 hp (DIN) in other markets. The inclusion of extras including carbonfibre decoration in the interior makes it different from the earlier lightweight, spartan 964 Turbo S. The 993 Turbo S is recognized by yellow brake calipers, a slightly larger rear wing, a 4-pipe exhaust and air scoops behind the doors. This was the last of the air-cooled Turbos. 12 Turbo S cars were delivered to Australia.
The car I’m photographing has been modified quite heavily and made perfect for going fast on a track.
The colour is a beautiful Midnite Blue over Black, it has GT3 seats, Simmons wheels, Pss9 Suspension, full weld in cage and has been stripped to 1400kg.
