I must agree with you johnnytenjobs. It sounds very exceptional when upshifting. But I never drove a 924 GT-R. i only have a 924 S and a 924 2.0. Greetings to all 924 friends

The 924 Carrera GTS made 375HP. The GTR's made up to 450HP. This driver is having difficulty with the timing of his upshifts and downshifts.

GIMME THE KEYS!! LOL!

@Raceboy911 Exactly.. The hidden 944 GTR was actually called 924 GTP LeMans in the LeMans race, while this is either a 924 Carrera GTR or 924 Carrera GTP.

This GTR has 2.0 engine, 924 GTP in 1981 Le Mans used 2.5liter 16v turbo engine and that made 420 hp.

@johnnytenjobs he's not taking his foot all the way off the gas pedel when shifting, which is probably eating his clutch. btw, turbo's are going build very little boost when reving the engine, a steady foot on the throttle is what it takes to build up boost. I've got a 951

does this use the 2.0 audi engine?

[Niadivedct]

@johnnytenjobs It's called flat shifting. It is to keep the turbo spooled up. While shifting, the driver does not let his/her foot off of the gas in between shifts to accomplish this.
