The 2012-spec Porsche 911 GT3 Cup will be based upon the lightweight 911 GT3 RS (997) street sports car. The power unit is principally similar to the manufacturing engine of the 911 GT3 RS using the same output of 450 bhp and the same maximum engine speed of 8,500 rpm. A race exhaust system with a managed catalytic converter keeps emissions as low as possible.
The flared wheel arches in the front axle support light alloy rims measuring 9.5Jx18 with 25/64-18 Michelin race tyres. The light alloy rims at the back measure 12Jx18 with 30/68-18 tyres. Based on the kind of racing, the new 911 GT3 Cup features different rim features. The blade-type anti-roll bars at the front end and back are adaptable in seven positions enabling an incredibly exact set-up for each race track. Limited to the Porsche Mobil1 Super cup which runs as support to Formula 1 is the PCCB Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake. It is also out there for Porsche’s road models. When compared to the amalgamated cast brakes in the Carrera Cups and the GT3 Cup Challenges, PCCB cuts down on the weight of the car by around 20 kilograms.
