This 2014 Porsche 981 Cayman S was transformed to PCA Club Racing GTB1 specifications by Speedsport Tuning of Danbury, Connecticut, in 2016. The build incorporates FIA-compliant safety equipment, race-tuned engine enhancements, and upgraded suspension and braking systems. A replacement 3.4-liter flat-six was fully rebuilt in 2022 alongside the installation of a new 7-speed PDK transmission, with only 5 hours of runtime reported since. The car was not raced in 2023 and most recently competed in 2024. Showing less than 46k miles on the odometer, this Cayman S is being offered for auction by its seller out of New York.
This 981 was ordered in Sapphire Blue Metallic and currently features a red, pink, and purple vinyl wrap with race livery. Modifications include a GT3-style front bumper, headlight covers, hood pins, tow hooks, a custom ducktail-style rear decklid spoiler, a fixed rear wing, a custom exhaust outlet, lowered suspension, and a removed rear lower apron. The car rides on 18” Forgeline wheels wrapped in Pirelli P Zero racing slicks. Minor wear consistent with track use is noted. Detailed images are provided in the gallery.
Inside, the cabin has been stripped for weight savings and configured for dedicated track use. Safety and racing equipment include a Sapphire Blue Metallic–painted custom roll cage by JC Customs, OMP Racing seats with Schroth harnesses, a quick-release three-spoke steering wheel, an AiM digital display and dash recorder, a cooling suit system, and a fire suppression system. A custom center console, shift assembly, and floorboards are also fitted. The seller notes that the CEL and TPMS sensors are illuminated, as expected with the installed modifications.
Power comes from a replacement 3.4-liter flat-six engine that was fully rebuilt and installed at approximately 20k miles, and later rebuilt again in 2022 with only 5 running hours since. The rear wheels are driven through a newly installed 7-speed PDK transmission. Suspension upgrades include rebuilt JRZ RS shocks (2022) with 750/850 lb springs, Terrence adjustable sway bars for the front and rear, and GT3 lower control arms. Braking is handled by GT3 front calipers with larger rotors. Additional performance enhancements consist of Cargraphic race headers and exhaust, new CV axles installed with the PDK replacement, and new wheel bearings fitted in 2022.
This race-ready Cayman S is offered with a bill of sale.
The seller would like you to know: “This 2014 Cayman GTB1 is truly turn-key, having benefitted from a full rebuild in 2022 with a replacement motor and brand-new PDK. Prepared and supported by the respected team at SpeedSport Tuning in Danbury, CT, it’s been kept at a professional level of race readiness with just one outing since the rebuild. A proven, reliable platform that’s ready to go from day one.”

@KayaknFly Correct, this is being sold on consignment. We listed this for sale on a few forums (as well as our website) but the plan was to bring it here to PCarMarket.
@seller
This car was for sale on a website recently, from a private seller.
Did you recently purchase this car, or is it on consignment?
Bid in the amount of $15,000
The listing has been updated.
@jammaljc The wording of the description is not accurate. This car was converted into GTB1 spec in 2016 by Speedsport Tuning. At that point (as a 2014 Porsche Cayman S), it had accrued 20k miles on public roads. The ~17k miles since have been around race tracks. The most RECENT rebuild happened in 2022 and the motor only has 5 hours since then. Hope that helps, cheers!
@BLH944 This is strictly a race car-only and is being sold on a bill-of-sale. Although it was once street-legal... "re-legalizing" it would be tricky and not worth the effort.
@Rks05370 Cheers!
- I'll share receipts on that later today. It was done while the car was under stewardship of Hairy Dog Garage.
- The rebuild is still fresh and the motor only has 5 hours since—we haven't done a compression test/oil analysis as a result
- Nothing major. Only incident I'm aware of was largely cosmetic and required a bumper replacement in 2022.
For the better part of the last five years, this GTB1 car has been campaigned and serviced by Hairy Dog Garage (Daniel Jacobs LLC) of Southbury, CT. All service records from this period will be uploaded to the listing later today.
Hello everyone and welcome to our auction of this 2014 Cayman GTB1 race car! This is the ideal starter car if you are thinking of getting into modern Porsche racing, but it's equally as potent as any other car in its class even still to this day. It was built and ran under Speedsport Tuning of Danbury, CT's racing program and benefits from a recent overhaul in 2022 (with limited usage since).
Please do not hesitate to ask questions, inquire directly, or leave a comment over the next week. I am here around the clock to answer them all!
Thanks for visiting and best of luck.
Buy this and leave new GT3RS for dead at about 20% of the price. If SST built and serviced the car one can be assured it is a great car. Top notch shop and techs.
Description says engine was replaced at 20K miles, and 5 hours operating since then (along with new PDK), but current odo on car shows over 37K total miles?
Hi Seller- very nice! Is this still street legal?
GLWTA!
Nice racecar!
Who did engine rebuild and new transmission? Receipts?
Compression test and /or oil analysis?
Any accidents/incidences?
Thx so much
