Tamiya 1/24 Porsche 911GT2 Taisan Livery - Since its debut back in 1964, the Porsche 911
stable has established an unparalleled esteem, both on streets and in
competitions. The "GT2" is a race ready version developed for the
world's GT racing events.
The
traditional 911 styling has been aerodynamically refined, yet retains
the unmistakable identity of the series. The rear mounted engine is the
hallmark of the 911 series, powered by a water cooled, horizontally
opposed six-cylinder unit. This 3.6 liter powerplant is coupled with
twin-turbochargers, yielding an awesome 400 plus horsepower output. The
six speed gearbox efficiently transmits this abundance of power to the
rear wheels. Front MacPherson strut and rear multi-link suspension
system has a sophisticated geometry for the utmost control during high
speed running. The large, 380mm diameter brake disks are ventilated to
take the racing abuse. They are equipped with ABS (anti-lock braking
system), for the positive stopping power and safety. The unique front
spoiler, with its up-turned ends, is the result of thorough wind tunnel
testing. A huge, two tier rear spoiler is equipped with air ducts on
both sides. The riveted over fenders add to its aggressive looks.
During
the 1995 Japanese GT Car Championships, Porsche entered a fleet of
their GT2's, including three entries from Team Taisan. Each of Taisan's
machines scored a victory during the season, bringing the coveted title
to the team.
