But even with all that excellence, there are still certain machines that stand out from this very exemplary crowd.<\/p>\n<p>The ingenious and complex 4-cam 356, the original 911, and then the 1973 RS, were a collection of world class cars. In 1992, the RS designation appeared again in the form of a European market, lightweight, rear-wheel drive 964, based on the Carrera Cup racecar. The U.S. did not get the benefit of this one as Porsche North America felt the tuning was a bit too aggressive for the American market.

This allows the 3.8 (Type M64\/20) to produce 300 brake horsepower at 6,500 rpm and 262 foot-pounds of torque at 5,400 rpm, with extra low-end grunt courtesy of the extra displacement. It is fitted with Porsche\u2019s innovativ Variocam variable-length intake system and also features newly designed forged pistons of a reduced height and a relocated wrist-pin, this keeps the piston weight under that of the standard 3.8-liter engine. The new engine also sports dual oil coolers and lightened rocker arms. All this is kept in check by a Motronic engine management system.<\/p>\n<p>The suspension was tweaked, as well. The RS received a front strut brace, ball-joint front damper mounts, and adjustable anti-roll bars with 5 positions for the 24-mm front and 3 positions for the 21-mm rear. The ride height was also lowered by 30-mm in the front and 40-mm in the back.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/95-RS453.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-613533 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/95-RS453.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/95-RS453.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/95-RS453-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/95-RS453-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/95-RS453-100x67.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/95-RS453-770x513.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/95-RS453-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/95-RS453-1155x770.jpg 1155w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/95-RS453-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/95-RS453-293x195.jpg 293w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/95-RS453-1400x933.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>For good measure, a limited slip diff was added along with 322-mm, cross drilled and ventilated discs brakes front and rear with four piston calipers from the 993 Turbo, and last but not least ABS traction control.<\/p>\n<p>The RS also employs a 6-speed G50\/31 manual gearbox with a short shifter and modified gear ratios for the first three gears.<\/p>\n<p>All this was attached to a seam welded body to make up one very solid piece of equipment.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/95-RS139-copy.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-613535 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/95-RS139-copy.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/95-RS139-copy.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/95-RS139-copy-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/95-RS139-copy-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/95-RS139-copy-100x67.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/95-RS139-copy-770x513.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/95-RS139-copy-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/95-RS139-copy-1155x770.jpg 1155w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/95-RS139-copy-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/95-RS139-copy-293x195.jpg 293w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/95-RS139-copy-1400x933.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h4>Driving the RS<\/h4>\n<p>You are in familiar surroundings when you sit in the drivers seat of the RS,\u00a0 it has the tried and true five VDO gauge layout that makes you feel right at home.
