Suspected cause
It would depend on how they're set up, my chassis and running gear will be a GT3RS in everything but name and the engine will be a 3.9L so more torque but probably a bit down on power to the GT3, so it would be interesting, 911 & Porsche World did a test with an Autofarm 3.9L and Hartechs are fairly well documented to have more torque and probably faster point to point on the road, but the GT3 is designed for the track so I think it would be fun watching the MLR cars coming out of bends quicker perhaps and the GT3 catching them on the straight with the extra power.

Leading evidence: 'bit down' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, the most frequently mentioned possible cause is 'bit down' (1 discussions; 0 report identifying it and 1 suggest it). The most frequently discussed action is 'Run gear will be a gt3rs in everything' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Great looking car and a fabulous colour choice. And yes MLR are doing the one for Harry, it’ll be interesting to hear if his car is different from this one as they are obviously a personal build
Yes this is an MLR build, the owner is a good friend of Marc and I have him on my FB page so I've got some lovely pictures of it and I've obviously seen it in person.
I think fundamentally it's mostly the same build, this car was also dipped and ecoated and seam welded, but we've chosen some different parts and I think I'm lucky in that I've got the benefit of them learning from previous builds and perhaps some ongoing development.
But essentially it's the same thing, his brief on what was wanted was very similar to mine, there will be a few different parts and mine is purely road orientated, but with a LWFW and I want it to rev like a motorcycle. I was hoping to drive this car when I was home last time, I was going to swap him a go with my 997RS, but unfortunately our path didn't cross at the right time and I was in a rush to get back.
It's a stunning car and green is my favourite colour so I'd love one the same, but blue is the wife's choice and I've made most of the choices so far so she got to choose the colour for a build and this car is hers - which at first I thought wouldn't happen but as you all know we found a PTS donor in the perfect colour.
Although she's now thrown a spanner in the works and has announced that she wants a blue Spyder RS, so I might get this build back in my name after all, watch this space.
It would depend on how they're set up, my chassis and running gear will be a GT3RS in everything but name and the engine will be a 3.9L so more torque but probably a bit down on power to the GT3, so it would be interesting, 911 & Porsche World did a test with an Autofarm 3.9L and Hartechs are fairly well documented to have more torque and probably faster point to point on the road, but the GT3 is designed for the track so I think it would be fun watching the MLR cars coming out of bends quicker perhaps and the GT3 catching them on the straight with the extra power.
As I said, in terms of handling they're GT3RSs in all but name, so I don't see any advantage either way, it's the same gear, but different engine characteristics, although on track bhp usually trumps torque as long as you can get the revs up.
I've been on the track with 996/997 GT3s when I've been in my 997 C2S and there wasn't much difference, they seemed to be finding it easier in the bends whilst I had more body roll and was trying harder. The newer ones are ridiculous, a 992.1 GT3RS came up behind me, overtook me and hit the bend so fast I took evasive action for when he spun - except he didn't spin, he just disappeared into the distance.
So against anything modern these 996 specials have no chance, it would be laughable, within half a lap they'd be a a speck in the distance.
