Porsche 964 With A GT3 RS Heart: An Engine Swap That Any Purist Can Get Behind

REEN Cars may have done the ultimate fan service by building this Mezger-powered Porsche 964

The Porsche 964 is one of the preferred platforms for reimagined, classic Porsche 911s

REEN Cars of Germany has done just that with this Guard's Red 964

They took the standard engine and replaced it with the flat-6 from the 997.1 GT3 RS

The M97.76 is one of the last Mezger engines. It makes 415 horsepower and 299 pound-feet of torque

The people at REEN Cars have optimized the engine's performance and peak power is now produced closer to the 8,200 RPM redline

This 964 still features the stock 5-speed manual, but with revised gear ratios

The REEN Porschce 964 RS GT is a subtle homage to the original, 1991 Porsche 964 RS N/ GT

Only 291 original 964 RS N/ GT cars were made and was the closest thing to a 964 GT3

The interior is, largely, original, with a few motorsport-inspired elements like bucket seats and MOMO steering wheel

REEN Cars is working on a similar treatment for the Porsche 993 chassis
