Stanley's Fast Road Porsche 964 Build Is My Air Cooled 911 Dream Car

- There is no such thing as the perfect 911. That's part of the joy - each owner has their idea of what is "the one". However, Stanley and I have a pretty similar idea of what might be the right blend of 911 parts for the road. His car is a 964 Carrera 4, modified with style including a 2WD conversion, a 993 gearbox, some hot cams and my favourite seats.

It's a shame the 964 is rapidly getting out of reach for many of us, the coupe is a lovely car.
Jay I need to thank you for never putting question marks in your videos or thumbnails. I always click your videos immediately and NEVER worry I’m being victimized by clickbait and I can’t tell you how good that rare feeling is
964 is my favourite 911. Ever since I saw a Guards Red 964 C4 shortly after they were brought out, at a ski resort called Seefeld in Austria with cool ski-rack on the back. It looked like a Bond film.
3:38 Eheheh, that new Bremen SQR46 is doing its job perfectly. It tricked James into thinking it was the original stereo of the car. Good job Blaupunkt, that head unit really blends on that 90's dash.
@Carson King It's Blaupunkt's modern iteration of the classic Bremen stereo from the mid 80's, now with modern functions like bluetooth, usb, dab and things like that. Looks great on late 80's and early to mid 90's German cars like this 964. A bit on the pricey side though, but it's worth it.
@Carson King Actually, Becker has been releasing modern versions of the classic 60's Mexico head unit with up-to-date features for quite a while too. The Blaupunkt SQR46 goes for around 400 pounds, depending where you buy it.
Viriatvs of Lvsitania hello, thinking about getting me a 964 that has an aftermarket head unit that looks just off. Where would you recommend getting one of these nicer / more period looking head units?? I live in the states... thanks
@@gaeleus Can't go wrong with this unit. You've seen the footage, it looks great and it's indistinguishable from the oem radio. So, yeah go for it.
Viriatvs of Lvsitania thank you!!!
Please continue to review 911, they are such an amazing cars.
Do you know what that sounds like? It sounds like a proper car. It's not speed, it's not handling, it's how the whole thing feels as a complete package - the driving experience - that's everything. Lovely!
964's are amazing. I still think the 993 is the absolute pinnacle of the brand. Too bad they're both too expensive now and eventually completely out of reach from any normal people. Keep up the good work.
What a nice car with great upgrades over time. Thank you to the owner for sharing and you did a fantastic job of sharing the "feel" of the package. Cheers!!
"Hello Everybody. I'm in a 911. Yes, I know...again," is never a bad way to start a video. Mad love and respect for this channel coming from the
US of A.
I had almost exactly the same car - best I ever had, and miss it every day. Wonderful mods. Great car. 👍
Congratulations for the nice review. The sound of that 964 is just fabulous.
Such a great review! I’m rebuilding my 964 C4 and I can’t wait to get it back on the road after a bad crash 7 or 8 years ago. Thanks!!!
This was the peak of the original 911 mission in my mind. Smooth body, expressive and lovable frog eyes, and the compact engine enabling a pintail rear end. The Gaurds Red is the crowning touch. Gorgeous machine.
Beautiful car and great vid
Just bought an old 996 and that’s amazing so I can only imagine how good this older air cooled car is
Outstanding review! On top of everything, so down to earth and « grounded » to this specific vehicle. I’ve seen tons of more spectacular 911 reviews but this one communicates the emotion of driving an air-cooled 911 so genuinely and effectively. Looks like I am going to watch this video a second time!
Thanks heaps for making and sharing such an awesome video of an awesome car! I absolutely LOVE the 964 and you've done an amazing job of showcasing just what a beautiful classic the 964 is and how a car can be tastefully modified! Brilliant video mate! Cheers!
I put my golf clubs across the back seats no problem in my 964.
The 964 is my second favourite car and this particular 964 is stunning 😍 the only thing I'd change on the car is the steering wheel to a nice MoMo jobby 👌
Well, I don’t know how it goes but it sounds and looks gorgeous. I absolutely love it.
to me the spec of this 964 is absolutly perfect ! BRAVO !
Sounds absolutely glorious!
Brilliant video.... the BEST no frills 911 without question!🏁
For all the '90's and most of the 2000's, I never really liked the looks of the 964, far preferring the 993. 964's have grown on me too - I now far prefer the look of them over the 993.
I agree the 964 has aged superbly and has become more attractive than the 993.
I wholeheartedly agree! The 964 is beautiful work of art and I absolutely love it!
I'm glad I'm not the only one...
The 964 is the more cohesive design of the two eras. It should have been introduced 10 years earlier than it was as the old bumpered version was slowing in appeal and cost the company sales.
The 993 has greater sophistication but the ends are out of sync with the body, especially the front design. The 964 retained the classic shapes that made the 911 G body distinctive yet up to date enough.
The 993 looks more “cute” if that makes sense. 964 has more of a classic Porsche look
A 964 tailored to its owner. I’d love to have a crack at creating my own 968. Signal green, Recaro pole positions, Momo Proto Tipo, g50 5sp. 3.2 from a 993 with some nice cossie bits and pieces. Akrapovic switchable, KW 3way coilovers. Fuchs alloys with a huge dish at the rear. A 50th birthday present to myself...
A 964 C2 was the second Porsche I drove and I fall in love from the first second
It is so much solwer that the 997, wich was the first Porsche I drove, but damn it who the hell needs to be faster if you drive a 964.
That aircooled engine, the sound and the way a 964 drives is absolutely perfect, brings so much fun and joy
Wow this one is absolutely gorgeous! Very tastefully done. Love the 964.
Love this example really shows you how tuneable the 964 is which kinda makes it the best platform for someone wanting to build their ideal Porsche 👌
What’s the cost of something like this?
Like the man in the movie said - “more than you can afford - pal - Porsche “
Thanks for yet another very nice review :) Lovely car!
"All British & Polite"? I have yet to experience such a thing.
J/K! We love the U.K.!
I’ve been upgrading my 964 and love every bit of the car! Great video.
Spencer Kosior what have you done so far. Building my own 968 is a bucket list thing for me.
Awsome vlog ! Nicer shirt ! Great review !
That would be a keeper 👍👍
The time has come to admit something 🤪
I’m selling my Elise S (pending a cracking offer) and buying a 991 911 C2S
I just love them 💯
Bad luck.
Did the same nearly 3 years ago (sold a different car though)...absolutely no regrets...The 991.1 C2S is phenomenal. Still not over the "honeymoon phase"!
George
I love my Elise but I used a M140i for 3 months commuting 60 miles (round trip). I hate to admit it but I prefer more car around me
Phenomenal sound.
Love the exhaust !
Nice one JayEmm. Love a 964 but of course I'm biased. Love your passion on this one. And the engine with that cam just sounds glorious! Still got a rasp to it ;)
I saved this review till last. That car gave me goosebumps I'd give my liver for one. Thanks jay
Sounds GREAT!
What’s not to love about a 964. Last of the air cooled with the classic silhouette, modern running gear with ABS, electronic fuel injection, modern electronics, active aero spoiler whilst still retaining all that classic 911 charm, sound, proportions. The noise and driving feel is just amazing. Granted the 993 may be the last of the air cooled with a few more improvements still over the 964, but it lost the classic silhouette. Most won’t even notice the improved rear suspension of the 993 driving both back to back. Those upright headlights standing proud in those wings. Can’t beat a 964 and after using my old one for more than a decade, still stopped andnoooked back each and every time after parking it, still lowered the windows going through a tunnel for that sound. Special special cars indeed.
Lovely lovely car cheers for this, also great video I'm very much enjoying these vid showing what can be done with cars that are avaliable, ok may be this is at the outer edge of what I could achieve( I must work harder).
Fantastic video. This car looks excellent.
This 964 is very very nice. Good looking and sounds fabulous.
PORSCHE 😍❤️
Such a beautiful car 🏎👍🏼🌹
The biryani of 911 964 mods - brilliant 👏👏
Lovely looking car.
What a beautiful car
Another great vid!
That's the iconic Porsche look, for me. Glad the newest ones are getting the gunk out of it's eyes, going back to the simple ellipse shaped headlights without the turn signals integrated in.
Wonderful sentiment at the end 👍🏼....great car
A tribute to it’s owner
Very tastefully modded and sounds nice and fruity. Very nice car!
Amazing review
excellent review & yet another example of a drivers car.. as clearly you enjoyed the 964 even when just plodding along. In alot of cars you cant do that
Sounds very good
I would daily drive this car to the ground. What a beautiful looking and sounding piece of metal.
at 2.45 I so wanted to hear;
"...the biggest change is to the drive train... which is no longer four wheel drive... but front wheel drive...".
LOL. anyway... (tumbleweed)... love the channel. shirt?
One of the best silhouettes
Amazing that sooooo much want soo little chance of ever having one 👍😃🙈
Yep, that thing is just yum.
No wonder the Singer cars are so good.
I love em all really. I mean if you hack up so ultra rare factory car then yeah, maybe you deserve some flak, but these things aren't all that rare, and they could use a bit of improvement sometimes. There's something to be said for keeping your car as close to what the designers meant it to be, but to be honest there's probably alot of stuff they would have loved to do but couldn't because it just would have cost too much, and that's where mods come in.
know thats a proper car after those yank things! love the looks!
Know?
For me, one of the most desirable cars you've tested on your channel. It'd be interesting to know how much the owner has spent on the car, albeit a little crass.
Great video! Would love a list of mods done to the car. Or at least what exhaust is on it because it sound awesome!
M&M Exhaust GmbH 👍
I had a Bhuna- a stock 964 C2. It didn’t sound as good as this one though. Very nice 👍
Jay ripping it!!!
Oh dear. I’m no tar’n feather guy, but mine is so standard. Nothing changed except some bits recommended for keeping it from conking and (yikes) terrible radio. But oh shit, this red one sounds sooo good. Pure joy.
Glorious vehicle, and maybe the best sounding car you’ve reviewed (I know there are Ferrari reviews)
I think the resto-mod he reviewed earlier in the week just tops this.
Grateful to know which type of cams were used in this car.
You can tell a special kind of petrolhead is responsible for this one. Well done!
Gorgeous J
That's my car right there.
I like this.
The 964 and 993s are my favorite 911s.
And especially the C2/C4 versions so you have them without the Turbo and GT wing on the back.
After that they lost a bit of the character and soul.
The modern ones are brilliant cars but just not for me.
Nice video.
Keep up the good work.
I prefer the sound of this car over the earlier video with the modified exhaust.
Yes I agree
I'd love to buy this car, or similar.
"It is the biryani " well done 😎
Ok the car is very nice, no doubt about it. My question is this: Why is England so beautiful?
James apologies for the off-topic comment to this video (love air-cooled 911s btw). I'm sure you've seen a flood of posts of Gordon Murray Automotive's T.50 all over social media, but I was wondering if you might do a 'Transmission whine' episode on your thoughts regarding this car? Hope that this no-compromise no-bullshit naturally aspirated V12 987kg engineering marvel will be a wake-up call to all manufacturers to make their cars more lightweight and more analogue (wishful thinking I know!)
Have just bought a beautiful 1990 guards red 964 with sports seats and mono steering wheel. Any suggestions on different ways to increase the poke/feel? It’s getting a fresh repaint at the moment and due to collect and drive for the first time in the next fortnight
Love your content and your videos Has anyone ever told you that you look like The late John Candy, the American actor from the 1980s?
GMA better let you testdrive the T50 when it arrives.
The turbo model of this breed is by far the best looking 911 produced!
www.ebay.co.uk/itm/402133283466 £84k though.
Reckon they'll be worth £200k in a few years.
Is that pedal assembly an upgrade to 993 layout? I haven’t seen a 964 where there is a foot rest next to the accelerator - the clutch is normally way out left.
The offset pedals would take a lot of getting used to. Do 993’s have that?
Gets me why all new cars are Massive..
Plain white shirt? I thought your account had been hacked! :-)
That ‘office’ look... it’s not sexy it’s animal 😂
James..... the shirt!
I know! Booorrrring! LOL
Just bought a C2 :)
The curry analogy is spot on.
Having completed the "evolution" mode of the PC game, "Need For Speed: Porsche Unleashed," I was privy to buying, selling, driving/racing, and customizing many Porsche models between 1950 and 2000. I completed all facets of this game in the year 2000 -- and became an expert Porsche race driver as well as a "Porsche connoisseur" which I was NOT until I played this game in its entirety. Currently, I am playing it again and have yet to start, much less finish, the 'factory driver' mode...
Currently, I have ended up 'keeping' only 10 Porsche models -- which are my favorite Porsche models of all time...
One of my favorites is the 1989 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 (964). This may or may not have been a very fine car, plumb-the-snuffalopogus out of the factory -- but I quickly and instantly made so many upgrades that it ended up being far superior to the base/stock 964; I turned it into a completely different machine, altogether:
For EXTREME horsepower increases, I added a replacement ECU, a high butterfly intake system, a big bore throttle body, exhaust system upgrade, and no less than a stage 4 supercharger. I also added a transmission quick shifter. I added pro racing brakes, pro shocks, pro springs, and an 'extra stiff' sway bar for awesome cornering...
Finally, I added a very large swanky-looking and ultra-functional whale tail to the back of the car for yet added stability control at high speeds...
The end result is that -other than my "Moby Dick" 1970s Porsche racing car -- my uber-souped up/uber-modified '89 964 is a true 'world beater.' No......let me rephrase that: "World Beater" sounds 'Satanic.' Let's call this "frog" a "moon-beater" instead...
It is an ultra-radical, serious track and racing car -- pretty easy to drive and handle -- but still requiring advance driving skills at high speeds. There are no real quirks even without traction control; no understeer/oversteer -- driving is superb and direct........in very stark contrast to my 1978 Porsche 911 Turbo 911 -which is aptly called the "Widowmaker" and does have much oversteer and thank God IS difficult to drive which makes it a blast, fun, and challenging...
I also painted my 89 964 a medium custom purple lacquer with a wide, white pinstripe trim package which straddles the middle of the top of the car from back to front. It is 'bitchin', radical looking....
The interior is a very light custom purple leather.......'PINOCCHIO-bitchin,' you "frogs"...
Those flippin' Germans really know they're 'PINOCCHIO'-engineering, right my bloke 'pal' -- ole boy?
9:08 - there is a man standing in some weeds filming you
Now this is more like it...a red Porsche 911...964...👍
Bought a 964 Coupe silver in 2002 at € 20.000 first owner at a Porsche dealer drove it 10 years and sold it with a big profit in the mid 80’s I had a 911 coupe 2.4 S from 1972 price DM 15.000 / € 7500 great prices back then !
that intake in this version will suck only HOT air, so it will decrease power
This was on the animated series called Wangan Midnight.
That car had the turbo from a mclaren f1 car and existed irl, very different to this
3.2 G50 or 964 or 993?
👍👍
I find hard to believe that until a few years ago the 964 was regarded as the "poor man's 993", neither "classic" as the bumper/prebumpers cars nor "modern" as the 993: the car for someone looking for a 911 on a budget.
And look at it today, as it worth even more than a 993...
The conversion from AWD to 2WD is interesting and unusual. I suppose the owner wanted a 'pure' 911 experience. Makes sense to me.
I LOVE driving. And I have loved Porsche's (Turbo's) since the '79 came to the U.S. Over the years I have leaned a lot. I put over $100,000.00 into a (euro-spec) 944 turbo to make it into, "the," Porsche HPDE weapon. Crazy? Stupid? Maybe, but I had a blast along the way. (I ended up giving my car away to a friend who had built his own, 37 lbs. of boost 944 Turbo s and had to sell to cover his wife's medical bills...terminal brain cancer). Now I track and race (SVRA) a Trans Am GT1 monster. It's WONDERFUL! No nannies and 730 hp. I'm lucky enough to also own a 2018 991.2 GT3 manual as a street car. And there it is: the lesson I've learned is that, "hyper/race cars don't belong on the street. They are unsatisfying in that their performance envelope is a recipe for jail and/or the death/injury of others who watch their phones instead of the road ahead. For those who don't have to, "flog their phallus," the 964 is a wonderful thing. Light, unbalanced, with a build quality juxtaposed to modern, "firmware," it is a machine worth throwback of 300 hp.
Should you be speeding on country roads?
The biryani 😂
swiper1818 takes a genius to compare a 911 with a curry really 😂
