Tuning vehicles is an absolute highlight for many motor fans. Individual facets of a vehicle can be enlarged, reduced or added as desired. So the concept of your own dream car gets a whole new meaning. Not only the motor characteristics of a vehicle can be changed, but also acoustic or optical features. Tuning is all about testing your own automechanical skills and having fun with the many possibilities of a vehicle conversion according to your own ideas. But above all, you want to stand out with features like a loud howling engine or a glaring car paintwork. Autotuning is particularly interesting when opposing elements meet. For example, old on new. One of the best works of car tuning on a 911 is probably the rebuilt Porsche 935 DPIII with 450 PS from DP MOTORSPORT.
The ultimate sports car is now almost a 30 year old vehicle, which, however, by its age brings a certain retro charm into play. Countless other examples could follow at this point. The Porsche 911 is characterized by its simplicity. He is probably the most famous model of Porsche and, so to speak, the epitome of the brand. The Porsche 911 and its successors have been successfully used for years in the sports car world championship and the German racing championship. In order to rebuild the copy of DP Motorsport, various modifications were made to it by different tuners. The conversion project was led by the team of DP Motorsport. At first, the weight of the Porsche 965 Turbo was reduced considerably.
Prime example of DP Motorsport
After replacing various materials with lighter plexiglass, the car weighed just 908 kg. This means that the engine only has to accelerate a smaller weight. Furthermore, after tuning, the car has an impressive 450 hp. In addition to these two main improvements, the driver of the car no longer sits in the normal seats, but in so-called "lollipop sports seats" in which the driver is secured by 4-point harness belts. Finally, a Bilstein chassis and the welded-in strut brace enable improved handling.
