Porsche 911 Baja Kit

This custom Porsche Baja 911 kit by Russell Built Fabrications will turn your otherwise tarmac-only Porsche into a desert trail beast. The idea is to pay homage to the off road racing success Porsche had the mid 80s, using today´s technology and engineering to out-fit and upgrade your Porsche 911 to the most capable, versatile, dual sport air cooled 911 on the planet. They have extended the wheelbase three inches and the track a humongous 14 inches, developed an exclusive front suspension system, and reduced the overall weight by 400 pounds. It also boasts Lexan racing windows, a string of hood-mounted LED rally lights, fat Toyo racing tires, a full roll cage, and huge fenders. The beast is powered by a 3.8-liter flat-six engine designed by Rothsport Racing that provides 365 horsepower and 310 ft-lb of torque, with two or four-wheel-drive available. The result is a Safari-worthy ride with options ranging from stripped-down racer to daily driver.
