B/F: Z man! The Porsche Al Story.

Share


In this episode we bring you an unconventional origin story. One that begins with a Z, ends with a Z and has a whole mess of Porsche in the middle. And to explain how this sandwich was made, is none other than one of GTM’s original cast, one of our “1st year” members. Porsche Al.

Join us and take a moment to get to know Porsche Al!


  • Al's modified 1975 Datsun (Nissan) 280-Z
  • Al's modified 1975 Datsun (Nissan) 280-Z
  • A sad farewell to Al's 911 in early 2020, leaving after an 8 year "love affair." In its last configuration, the Targa was fitted with a 1991 Porsche 964 Twin-Spark 3.6-litre engine.
  • All new tires - square setup P235/45/R17, headers and new titanium exhaust system, stainless steel brake lines and EBC yellow brake pads - to name a couple mods...
  • Cage work by Autofab Racecars
  • Meet Porsche Al, GTM DMV Region Member #9 since February 2014 - Porsche Al... returns to his roots, and became Z-man!

Current Project – 350-Z Track Build

This video is from our Dyno Day 2020 event at Autofab Racecars. Porsche Al has been busy making changes to his Z in preparation for his debut at Summer Bash 6 at PittRace in August.
