Porsche 996 to 997 GT3 Conversion

The Porsche 996 seems to be the most disliked Porsche build alongside the 955 Cayenne, personally we love the look but we do understand why people dislike the look, you only have to look at the older generations of the 930, 964, 993 chassis to see there was a huge jump in styling to the 996 chassis, with the front end being the most discussed topic on this model and something Porsche themselves must of taken on-board too, as when they launched the 997 model it looked more like the older 911, 964, 993 models rather than an evolution of the 996 as we would of expected.

Full aero conversion available to convert the Porsche 996 to the 997 GT3R 2013 Chassis

There seems to be many offering upgrades for the 996, the most popular at first was the 996 to 997 face lift, with the 991 look now and option for the 996, but we don’t personally like either. The best one to hit the market so far is our Japanese partners Old & New with their amazing slant nose, that really does transform the look of the 996 model, its extreme but we have to admit we love the slant nose on any Porsche chassis, we are looking at building our very own Kremer 997 K3R this year all being well, and that is the ultimate original slant nose, it’s the king of kings.

With not a lot of love be shown for the 996 we too have set out to look into transforming the look and we feel we have the ultimate 996 make over with the 997 2013 R upgrade now available as an upgrade option this year and will be added to our website.

From the Porsche 996 to 997 chassis there isn't a huge difference, but there is enough to keep a good body work specialist / mechanical expert busy for a while, but we take the pain out of the conversion by offering all the conversion parts to make the job so much easier.

Parts for the conversion consist of the full R13 exterior wide body work, we supply in GRP cloth or carbon fibre, as well as the rear 996 to 997 conversion parts, you will also need the front bonnet and you can then add as many optional extras as you require from light weight carbon cup doors, carbon fibre roof, full flat under floor, kevlar arch liners, we also offer a multitude of rear engine covers from the RSR, GT3R ducktail with various wing assembly, we also have a 993 GT2 Evolution style with the air intakes that sit either side of the main wing which looks well on any Porsche chassis.

Porsche 991.2 GT3R

The R programme for the Porsche is a pretty special race car, we have always preferred the look over the RSR look, it’s the more wider aggressive look and in 997 guise we didn't think it would get any better, that was until Porsche decided to hit us with the very latest 2019 spec R package for the 991 chassis and boy oh boy it’s pretty spectacular.

When the R was first released for the 991.1 it was nice but for us the 997 was still a better look, when the did the upgrade for the 991.2 in 2016 it really grabbed our attention, so much that we added the aero to our line-up, but we still preferred the older 991.2 R look, but with the all new release of the 2019 R package Porsche have just knocked it straight out the part … its quite phenomenal.

This R has taken on a completely different look to the older 991 generations, with a complete make over from front to rear, and we absolutely love the vents that adorn the top of the front fenders, as well as the rear quarter inlets and the rear bumper is just sublime, Porsche you have done it again and created yet another master piece.

In true wide body fashion, the conversion consists of the usual parts:

Front bumper, bumper canards, front floor with splitter, front fenders, side skirts, rear quarter panels, rear bumper, rear diffuser, rear ducktail engine cover and the optional rear wing assembly.

Porsche 991 GT3R for the road

This year will see one of our dreams come to fruition, that dream was seeing our wide body Porsche GT3R for the 997 chassis as a road going conversion on UK roads, we have seen a few road creations come to life around the world from aero kits we have supplied, but there is nothing like a home grown build and collaboration with our friend Iby from speedwells has seen that dream come to life, seeing the build stage by stage has been exciting, but being based on the Turbo model it was always going to be a bit of a challenge, but huge credit to Iby as he has been very methodical in his thinking for this build, with some lovely touches, which is what a build like this needs.

Supplying our aero parts around the world we get to meet and link up with like-minded people through our social media network and that’s just what happened with Joe AKA #997turbocab, to say Joe is a Porsche fan is a little bit of an understatement, check out his Instagram, our personal Favorite is his 997.2 GT3 4.0LTR build by the BBI team, and now he has commissioned them to build his latest Porsche, The 991 GT3R in road going form, and yes you read that correct, Joe has ordered and had delivered every carbon fibre “R” panel for his street going 991 GT3 and boy oh boy are we excited to see this one come together.

We don’t think BBI need any introduction, they are known throughout the world building some pretty special Porsche's, and this build I'm sure will be up there as one of the best, what we do know is this is the first of its kind globally, and Joe will be using on the road as much as he can, in his own words, this is going to be his grocery getter, its one build we are really exciting thinking about, we think BBI Autosport are going to break the Internet with this one.
