In this thrilling episode of throtl, we witness the remarkable transformation of a 1993 Porsche 911 RS America, a rare gem in the automotive world. This car, previously owned by a track enthusiast, undergoes a complete overhaul under the skilled hands of the team. From Moroto lighting upgrades to custom Carbone carpet kits, every detail is meticulously curated to enhance both performance and aesthetics. The addition of Ren line replacement parts and a mountain of carbon fiber goodies elevates this Porsche to a whole new level of sophistication and speed.
As the team delves into the project at Autobon Parts in Elcone, the sheer magnitude of Porsche parts available is staggering. With cylinder heads, crankshafts, and camshafts galore, the team is like kids in a candy store, selecting the finest components for Rick's Porsche. The plan unfolds with precision: strip the interior, repaint at SOS, install aftermarket headlights and tail lights, and finally, unveil the new wheels and tires that will set this Porsche apart from the rest. The meticulous attention to detail is evident in every step of the process, showcasing a deep passion for automotive craftsmanship.
One of the most striking transformations occurs with the removal of the race exhaust and the installation of a factory exhaust system. The team's decision to replace the old, loud exhaust with a more refined setup reflects a commitment to creating a balanced driving experience. The addition of new tail lights, front bumper enhancements, and carbon fiber accents further solidifies the Porsche's newfound elegance. With each part meticulously installed, from the dash to the door panels, the interior of the Porsche is a symphony of luxury and performance, culminating in the fitting of three-piece wheels and Falcon tires that complete the ensemble. The moment of truth arrives as Rick is finally presented with his fully transformed Porsche, a masterpiece that embodies the spirit of throtl's dedication to automotive excellence.
