How do you improve the Porsche Cayman GT4? Sharkwerks thinks it has the answer, with shortened gear ratios, a lighter flywheel, and more power. Over to DRIVETRIBE's Features Editor, Henry Catchpole…

I've always liked to diss Porsches out of some misplaced superiority that they all looked the same and how Clarkson back in the day was showing how specially the Cayman was done to fill a gap and nothing more, but I gotta take my proverbial hat off to the Cayman GT4. What a great looking machine, how it goes, how it sounds, and how mostly everyone seems to fall head over heels for it and also what a great racecar it makes, at least in IMSA where I've seen it. Great job Porsche, you finally got me.
Not even want, this falls under the car lust category. This one, along with a Boxster review Henry did in the mountains of Spain, are two of my favorite car videos of all time.
Just listen to that wow. 2 of my top 3 car reviewers in Jethro and Henry on this. Amazing

tanafc96 I was sad to see them go from Evo, but now there's two channels with amazing reviewers! I still love the rest of the guys back at Evo still :)
Yes! Catchpole is back. I was worried when he left EVO, but this is just as good
5:41... I need new pants...

I need new parts... Shortened 3-5th gear ratios, lightened flywheel and new Guards Transmission LSD. I have the Cargraphic sports headers, just need the IPD plenum and 997 GT3 82mm TB ;)
Jethro? Alright, this channel is dope. Now Henry, too?! Subscribed.
Great video - Porsche flat six engine note, doesn't get much better than that!
Wow, the editing is excellent. Just as good as any Chris Harris video. Thanks.
That last shot overlooking the city was phenomenal!
Fantastic video. I think it is a solid 12/10 video! Great job!
Henry Catchpole.... Great to see you making excellent videos. looking forwards to many more.
Henry schooling us on how it's done 3:24 Excellent video and tremendous cinematography, tremendous work as always fellas
more night shots like that in the end
Pure quality in many ways. Delightful. Thanks.
Love the production values on these videos. Coupled to genuine enthusiasm by all presenters.
Catchpole and Bovingdon. The combo !!
A solid 12/10 👏😏
So glad to see this chanel popping up!
beautifully shot and great review.
Such an amazing car on such an amazing road. Glad you got to experience our little slice of heaven known as Angeles Crest Highway (ACH)!
Forget the car, just for the moment. This was a beautifully photographed film, especially near the end in the sunset, where dear Henry went all poetic for us. Gorgeous, thank you. And the car was stunning and sounded as near to a race car as possible. WF
Glorious sound!
Thank you Henry for not being another snob from Europe and dogging on the great driving roads that we have to offer here in the US. Hopefully you guys get to showcase others like Tail of the Dragon, Hocking Hills, etc....
Great video. Well done.
That sounds absolutely brilliant!
jethro....and henry?! Oh boy....

User996 That's your opinion and this is our opinion, no need to be a snowflake about it.
Just one thing I want to know. Which would Jethro prefer, this or the NA2 NSX Type R he recently drove?
The sound is just amazing 😉
The shortening of gears was certainly necessary.. wish I could drive this car instead. I drove a stock one and second gear went over 80mph.. by the time I just started 3rd I just didn't bother anymore.. fun's over, I'm on a public road, gotta calm down.
that was beautiful to watch..
So raspy sounding! I love it!
Christ these videos are good, so polished. Evo are at a loss without Henry and Jethro. How is DriveTribe monetised?
Great video but I wish you had told us what each gear now actually tops out at. My understanding of the GT4 has been that 1st takes you to 52mph so even that could be reduced a little, but 2nd gear is the biggest problem on real-world roads - revving out to over 85mph. 3rd takes you on to 121mph and obviously, that makes it a gear you won’t exactly be exploring very often - plus you’ll lose a sense of the potential low down urgency. I’d love to see a solution that addresses the whole first 5 gears, perhaps leaving 6th as a more long-legged cruising gear. If we had gearing more similar to an older 911 Carrera it would be awesome. 40-ish mph in 1st, 70-ish mph in 2nd, just over 100mph in 3rd, around 130mph in 4th and then you can pull 5th and 6th out a bit for a decent top speed and more relaxed high speed cruising. I’d be really interested in a GT4 with a manual gearbox like that. 👌🏼
where was this filmed please? That's a fantastic road :)
Nice watch!
TOP REVIEW.GORGEOUS CAR
Angela's Crest (not "Angeleez" Crest, Mr. Catchpole) is Matt Farah's go-to road.

Its just called the Crest....if you go there that is. The official name is Angeles national forest
Drivetribe is criminally underrated
Is that the road on wich Duel 1971 movie was filmed
Who dislikes this video? Boy... you don't even have to be a Porsche lover to love this
?? Did DriveTribe cop everyone at EVO??...If they did Great stuff !!..They make fantastic reviews
Great vid - 0:26 - fetid with praise ? Look it up :)
Henry, what kind of watch are you wearing here?
Very nice speedmaster. Car journalism seems to be a solid job.

So you guys are all united here on this channel? Will there also be content by Clarkson etc. or are they not involved any further? The content is fantastic! Thank you very much.

Nope,the trio works on published article on DT website.All videos job goes to both Jethro and Henry.Awesome isn't it?
Best car of all time according to me
Dat sound *closes eyes*
Why is the collor grading so low contrast and blue? Congratz on the channel, we need more like these. But there will never be many of this kind, right?
Anybody know the track at the beginning?
The GT4 doesn't have a "Carrera S motor with the Power Pack". The Carrera S withOUT the power pack still makes more power than the GT4 (400 vs. 385) and the Power Pack brought that to 430 in the Carrera GTS. Awesome video though.

ya, that comment was a little odd. It actually is more similar or exact to the 997.2 C2S DFI 385hp motor (no power pack) than it is the 991 C2S with 400 hp (no power pack). I wonder if the "power pack" comment comes in mistaking it with the 997.1 C2S X51 "power kit" that increases the HP from 355 to 381? Other than that, great video and car.

The GT4 has a 991 911 Carerra S engine strangled to make it fit into a sales niche. All GT4 owners need to let it free ;)
Brilliant
looked so amazing at night with the full moon
I daily drive a Cayman S but this car is my dream car.
What road is that??
So now both Henry and Jethro work at Drivetribe? This reminds me of a prior attempt that Chris Harris orchestrated with his ill-fated Drivers Republic, when he convinced Dickie and Jethro to come over from Eco. When the music stopped, Dickie was able to get back into evo, as was Chris (rather ironically). Unfortunately, Jethro got stuck at car magazine for a period, before ending up back at evo...
Is this Guy Martin's younger brother? :)
Dream cars: Sharkafied 981 GT4 and a Manual 991.2 GT3 in my garage 🙏
thanks for the Donnie Darko reference
would love to know what watch he's wearing in this review!!

GT4RS is coming soon
Can sharkwerks do that to a car in the UK?
You're saying it's 11/10 car, but I would take away 2 points for the boring color and one more point for that in-your-face rear spoiler. So it's like 8/10 for me. _I know it's GT4, but can't argue with your own taste..._
no gt2 rs videos mhh
All Caymans are true drivers cars, you just can’t go wrong with one no matter your budget 😜
I wonder how it would fair against an M4 GTS on Track

They were neutering. Protectionism at its worst.
I would love a dogleg in my mx5
As is, I would like to see a comparo on track between this Cayman GT4 Sharkwerks and a 911 GT3 ..... 'cause this should have been the real GT4 since the begining, but I believe they were afraid to easily make it better than the all mighty 911. just sayin.....
4:55 ...... Kaboom?
needs a new normal gearbox from 1-6.
I WILL OWN ONE.
I'd be surprised if this channel doesn't end up asking subscribers for money. Rupert Murdoch isn't going to bankroll Clarkson, Hammon, May and the bulk of the evo journos just for the fun of it...
needs 600 hp
if its such a good car, why fuck with it?
Do not talk!
wtf this this guy again ....i dont like him in evo and he is now here....he lack of emotion 110%.....sorry
