Porsche 911 GT3 STI is powered by Subaru Impreza STI engine

This year’s SEMA Show, which will take place from November 1-4, has already offered several attention-grabbing cars. One of them is the Porsche 911 GT3 STI with the engine from the Subaru Impreza STI.

It is a project by Eneos and DevSpeed Motorsports that is based on the 2007 Porsche 911 GT3. The car was badly damaged in an accident, after which it was bought at auction by professional drifter and tuner Faruk Kugay. This allowed him to use the GT3R’s bodykit, which includes a pronounced splitter, wide fenders with air vents, a carbon roof, 997.2 taillights, and a new rear bumper. In order to perform better on the track, the chassis was modified, BC Racing adjustable shock absorbers were installed, while some components were taken from the Porsche 911 Cup racing model. Besides all of that, a Nuke Performance Air Jack 90 Competition lifting system has been installed for quick tire changes.

Inside, carbon fiber sports seats, a steering wheel with ENEOS GT3 lettering, a digital cluster, a simple dashboard, and a CageKits roll cage.

Under the hood is a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine with 542 hp (405 kW) from the Subaru Impreza STI. The engine is paired with a Subiworks 6-speed manual transmission that transmits power to the rear wheels. It’s mounted on a set of 19-inch Rotiform 917 wheels wrapped in 265/35 R19 (front) and 345/30 R19 (rear) Toyo Proxes R888R tires.

Definitely an unusual car that will be talked about even after the SEMA Show.
