More insight on the 964RS
Evoking memories of the legendary 2.7 and 3.0-litre RS and RSR 'homologation specials' of the 1970s, in 1991 Porsche introduced the Type 964 Carrera RS. A lightweight variant like its illustrious forebears, the beautiful newcomer was based on the 'Carrera Cup' competition car and sold in Europe only.
The Carrera RS retained the 3.6-litre engine, albeit boosted in maximum output to 260bhp and equipped with a lightened flywheel for improved response. The G50/10 five-speed transmission featured closer ratios, an asymmetrical limited-slip differential, and steel synchromesh, while the suspension was lowered and stiffened. The 0-100km/h time dropped to 5.4 seconds and the Carrera RS had a top speed of 260km/h.
The interior was stripped out completely and the power steering, power windows and seats, rear seats, air conditioning, cruise control, sound deadening material, and stereo system removed. Two lightweight racing bucket seats were fitted instead. The front bonnet was made of aluminium and the chassis was seam welded, while the side windows were made from thinner and lighter glass. Rounding off this radical exercise in weight reduction, the Carrera RS was equipped with 17" Cup magnesium wheels. The result was a total weight saving of around 150kg compared to the Carrera 2, transforming the RS into a faster, more agile, and more responsive car.
Brian Laban found that any feeling of remoteness or soft touch had gone completely, and reckoned that the controls never felt more solid or precise. In his opinion the Porsche could not be faulted, the verdict being that the Carrera RS was 'exactly what a performance car should be'.
