Hi, I am still discovering the misteries of 930... Mine is fitted with the 930/50 engine, which is the original one. This is chassis is 9306700391. Is this normal ? and does it mean it is one of the first 187 ROW cars of MY1976 (as seems to appears from the 930 registry) ? I am not sure what this can tell about the car... thanks !
Will be interesting to see for how much will bring this 75 930 turbo, will be acuctioned in NYC by RM 1975 Porsche 911 Turbo | New York - Driven By Disruption 2015 | RM Sotheby's
Hello, Andrea! Nice to see you here, after P-mania forum ... What do you think about the car you posted? Looks very correct to me, maybe just a bit over-restored ...But I love the old metal that shows its actual patina and I do not rapresent the typical buyer. A guesstimate of the potential hammer results? I whould say 400k USD. Even in a market that is going softer after its peak. Ciao, Cesare
Yep that's me... '77 3.0L ROW (originally German car imported to US in early '80s). I'm active on Pelican and Rennlist, very rarely over here at fchat. That car was indeed at PCA show at Larz Anderson in 2013. More recently I was up in VT/NH for a rally with it with the RPM guys which was a total blast. Image Unavailable, Please Login
1974 Carrera RS 3.0, chassis # 911 460 9106 featured in a 2001 Japan Neko Porsche Car magazine. The front photo highlights the similarities between the RS 3.0 and 930. Theres a German 25-year decal in the rear window and the interior photo shows the 74/75 interior controls, speaker dash pad, and very cool clock and glove box lid deletes.

Had a delightful long ride in #470 this morning to vintage grass airfield Vansant in PA to check out a '29 Stearman. Captured the last 3 min of the ride on goPro. Mostly wind noise, sorry, but the soundtrack was spotify "Billboard 100 1976" https://youtu.be/MmnEZ0vLX88
Headed out today to drive the "Bay to Birdwood" here in South Australia. At 1750 Classic vehicles, they say it is the biggest cruise like it in the world.... Anyway, after using 1st and 2nd gear for nearly an hour in traffic, we made it to the hills. First climbing left hander, and I had it loaded up in second. When an all mighty BANG came from the RH rear.... broken torsion bar. Car drops in the RH rear and I limp home almost 100km and parked it up. Now I have to head off interstate in the morning and have no time to attempt to extract the broken bar to measure it. I have another event booked here in a couple of weeks. "The Adelaide Motorsport Festival". So my question is? What size torsion bar would I expect to find in the rear of 1976 ROW #91? Were they all one size back then? I would like to track something down so I can put it in there in the couple of days between getting back home and heading out in the car again. Anybody?
Luke, I think these used a 25 or 26 mm bar. Racing this weekend but I'll check my books tonight when I get home if no one posts a definitive answer. Phil
I've notice most of the 3.0 RS use the metal deck grill. Did any of the early 930 use a metal grill instead of plastic? Also the pedals are shorter than the late 2.7 and sc cars. We're the early non-servoed brake car on the turbos, I wondered if they also used the shorter peadals ?
To save a few ounces of weight  Do you mean the grills on the rear wing? The 3-liter Turbos used plastic grills although the repros sometimes have metal secondary grills.
yes, early 3.0RS were metal along with the 74 paris/frankfurt turbo show car. i was wondering if any of the very early turbo carreras came with metal ones
