Dedication To Detail

In today’s ever-evolving world of automotive design and technology, the enhancement of classic cars like the Porsche 911 of the 964 series through Backdate-builts offers a fantastic way to keep the fascination with historical vehicles alive. These impressive “time machines on wheels” will continue to play a central role in car culture for years to come.

“We believe that the shapes and body widths of that time were so well-balanced and elegant that they cannot be surpassed,” says Founder and Managing Director Dirk Sadlowski.

The meticulous restoration and the use of original engines, combined with cutting-edge technology, underline the authenticity and value of our ST-Recreations. The upgrade to a larger 3.8-liter engine and the resulting power increase to over 320 hp provide not only breathtaking driving characteristics but also ensure the reliability and longevity that modern sports car enthusiasts expect. This makes the ST-Recreation a unique blend of classic charm and contemporary dynamism.

Our modern exhaust system, entirely made of stainless steel and with two 100-cell catalytic converters instead of the original 60-cells, is a prime example of our technological innovations and proprietary developments. It ensures compliance with environmental standards as well as the unmistakable Porsche sound that enthusiasts cherish.

Since the original 964 models already featured a hydraulic clutch, power steering, and an ABS braking system, the practicality of our ST models is always assured. To make our ST-Recreation even more user-friendly and contemporary, we integrate modern conveniences. A modern air conditioning ensures comfort in all weather conditions, while LED headlights improve visibility and safety. A modern suspension enhances vehicle dynamics and handling, crucially contributing to performance and driving pleasure.

With a weight reduction of about 330 pounds, combined with various suspension optimizations, our ST reaches a performance level comparable to modern cars. The increased power and reduced weight allow for impressive acceleration and agile handling, making our ST-Recreation a true dream for anyone wanting to combine classic style with modern power.

In our metalworking department, we also manufacture high-quality interior applications ourselves, including switches made of solid stainless steel or aluminum. Each vehicle is not just a style icon but also a one-of-a-kind, as customers can incorporate their individual ideas into the vehicles. The PS team embraces these challenges with enthusiasm to realize our customers’ dream cars.

After many years of intensive development and over 50 ST-Recreations delivered worldwide, nearly every aspect of our conversions has been optimized. Even the smallest details like ventilation motors, radiators, thermostats, and their controls are overhauled or replaced. Every nut and bolt is carefully processed, anodized, specially coated, and hardened. Even the wheel bolts are made of high-quality titanium steel to ensure they meet the highest quality and durability standards.

The attention to detail is also evident in the instruments, which are naturally overhauled and styled in a new, historical design. The numbers are green, and the hands are white, just like in the first Porsche 911 models. This not only preserves performance but also the authenticity and charm of these fascinating vehicles at the highest level. A work of art is only complete when nothing more can be added, removed, or changed. Thanks to modern manufacturing technology, further innovations lie ahead. We look forward to this evolution and work with immense passion and dedication on our Porsche 964 ST-Recreation.

The love that goes into each of our STs results in an automotive masterpiece that embodies the essence of classic heritage and contemporary sophistication. We look forward to sharing these timeless masterpieces with enthusiasts around the world.
