The replacement for the SC series came in 1984 named 911 3.2 Carrera, reviving the Carrera name for the first time since 1977. This was the last iteration in the original 911 series, with all subsequent models featuring new body styling with new brake, electronic and suspension technologies.The Carrera is almost indistinguishable from the SC with the external clue being the front fog lights that were integrated into the front valance. Only cosmetic changes were made during the production of the Carrera, with a redesigned dash featuring larger air conditioning vents appearing in 1986.
At the time Porsche claimed the new 3.2 litre motor was was 80% new. Higher domed pistons increased the compression ratio from 9.8 to 10.3:1 and new inlet manifold and exhaust systems were fitted. In 1987, the Carrera got a new five-speed gearbox sourced from Getrag, known as the G50 and which would prove to be the more desirable and driveable gearbox of the 80's 911's.
Power was increased to 231bhp / 172 kW. This version of the 911 accelerated 0–100 km/h in 5.4 seconds and had a top speed of 242 km/h. The brake discs were increased in size to aid in more effective heat dissipation and improved oil-fed chain tensioners were fitted to the engine. To improve oil cooling, a finned cooler replaced the serpentine lines in the front passenger fender well. This was further improved in 1987, with the addition of a thermostatically controlled fan. Driving refinement and motor reliability were improved with an upgrade of the fuel and ignition control components to an L-Jetronic with Bosch Motronics 2 DME (Digital Motor Electronics system).
This is a nice straight car that came from JHB a few years ago. It is completely rust and accident free. It has recently been resprayed in the original colour, a new soft top was fitted new tyres, The motor was completely rebuilt by MR Motors in JHB. The car drives exeptionally well
A fantastic driving car perfect for open top motoring in the Cape
