'67 Porsche... With Subaru STI Power!? The 912 RSTI

  • Although they're both flat motors, it's pretty wild to hear the difference between Porsche's take and Subaru's take on the same engine layout. And while this may be blasphemous to a lot of Porsche heads, there's no denying that Subaru's JDM STI engine is a nice piece of kit that puts down respectable power. Mike Davidson wanted a real driver's car that he could put through its paces, so the powertrain choice was obvious.

    Right on Mike, great to keep seeing your car get the credit it deserves. I really miss my 912/STIspec-C v1.0, the BOV and 8k rev was just so intoxicating. thanks Larry for another cool vid and featuring this Frankenstein. Mikes and my build brings out a few haters but the majority of peeps, even in the R Gruppe just smiled getting rides on Treffens and track/AX days.

    The Porsche 912 used the 1600cc/1.6 liter Type 616/36 engine from the Porsche 356. It was rated at 89 horsepower and 90 ft lbs of torque. It had a curb weight of 2134 lbs and handled better than the more powerful 911 it shared it’s chassis and many other components with. It also cost thousands less than the 911 which is why it outsold the 911 by a pretty good margin.
