Its been a while since our last post as things have been a little hectic at our HQ, with us working on so much in the we thought it was time to share whats been happening over the last few months.

We recently supplied one of our aero packs to a client in Massachusetts in the USA and its a project we wanted to share with the world as this build is really exciting, especially with all the people he has onboard, this is going to be one crazy Porsche build, the base car would be enough for most people, the thought of cutting it up to some people is sacrilege, but not Chris Fren, this is a guy that knows exactly what he wants and that is to make the best, better, so when he decided to build his dream Porsche GT3R street car he got in touch with one of the only places in the world that could make that happen, VAD.


Now this is where the fun begins as our kit is manufactured to fit the Porsche 991.1, but Chris wanted the 991.2, chassis, as Chris said the 991.2 is better in every way that the 991.1 especially mechanically and it has everything he wants in a Porsche, so as we already know Chris wants the best, so a Lizard Green 991.2 GT3RS was purchased, and sent off to Addictive Autosport, a team that know how to build a car, with Alex the man entrusted to tackle the build. with the first week being strip down, the last couple of weeks have been full fabrication mode with Alex ringing his full skill set to this build, as a brand you always think about who will be building the car, will they be build to the same quality, they have answered all of those questions, this team are exceptional and its easy to see why Chris chose Addictive Autosport to construct his dream Porsche.


To say Chris is installing the best of everything is an understatement, the suspension is from our own back yard in the form of Nitron Suspension, We worked with Nitron on our 997 R13 GT3R V8 Street, so we know all about the quality, whilst the beautiful exhaust system has been crafted by the geniuses’ that are Opus Innovations, with the bespoke forged 1 of 1 wheel design manufactured by the super talented Machfive Motors, we will discuss the exhaust and wheels in our next blog of this build, for now enjoy looking at one of the finest Porsche 991.2 GT3RS being turned in to a GT3R Evo street.

If you follow our social media, you will know that this time last year we teamed up with Angie Mead King AKA car Porn Racing who are based in Manila and to say Angie built something special is a bit of an understatement, she basically took a 991.1 GT3RS base car and applied our R16 wide body that is manufactured for the none turbo wide body chassis like the basic GT3, C4S etc, so to pull this off shows the skill set this company has, it’s a pretty special company who take on build like this on a weekly basis.

If you follow Angie on YouTube you will know she crashed her pride and joy Porsche 991.2 GT2RS and damaged the body work pretty badly and although she has looked at rebuilding the car to factory spec, that has now changed, the new look for this car will be an all dry carbon fibre factory R19 GT3R wide body aero conversion and boy oh boy are we excited, as not only are we supplying the aero kit but we will be privy to all the inside build updates as they happen.

This is going to be one of the most unique Porsche builds globally and although Porsche have built an immense race car, Angie’s will not only be a track breathing monster, but a street legal one too, imagine the world first R19 GT3R built for the street, what’s not to love, we will keep you posted when the kit has been shipped.

 

Its been a while since we have updated the blog, with so much going on there is just not enough hours in the day as well as people, we are pulling some serious hours on some amazing projects.

Back in July we did a post on a build our Partner in the Philippines was doing, our Porsche 991 R16 Evo GT3R carbon fibre aero kit, Angie Mead King AKA Car Porn Racing doesn’t really need much in the way of introduction as she is a formidable car modifier who is known globally throughout the scene and Angie has finally finished the build.

Considering Angie used the 991 GT3 RS as the base car for this conversion rather than a none turbo wide body Porsche chassis is extremely commendable, we know just how difficult this conversion is when fitting a kit to a chassis it wasn’t really intended for and the overall look of the finished car is simply breath-taking, especially around the rear quarter panels where Angie and her wonderful team have cut in the side air intakes back into the kit that did have the intakes, this is a part that we will be adding to the kit over the next few months but Angie beat us to it using her modification skillset, so happy to have this lady as part of the extended VAD family of dealers, well done Angie you did us proud, now all that is left to do is paint or wrap the beauty. #PorscheRacing #porsche991 #Porsche991GT3R #991GT3R #porsche991gt3r #GT3PORSCHE #PorscheTurboWideBody #PorscheTurboR #Turbor #Porsche991CUP #Carbonfibre #PorscheAeroParts #PorscheCarbonFibre
