The 911 GT3 RS (997.2) is the lighter, wider, more track-focused GT3. It shares the naturally aspirated 3.8-liter Mezger flat-six and a close-ratio six-speed manual, and like the GT3 that engine is a port-injected, dry-sump race unit — not the DFI Carrera engine — with no IMS bearing to fail.
The RS is lighter than the GT3 despite the fixed wing and roll structure, running a wider rear track for more mechanical grip. As with any of these cars, verify the WC51 intake-air-distributor campaign and the center-lock wheel-hub recall.
