Those are 2 different cars. RHD vs LHD. I think the one in your picture is an RS 3.0.
You're right. The one I posted is a LHD and the one in the 930 turbo forum is RHD

I wish they would have done the front fenders like that. Sweet!

As I understand it, this is the Turbo with the wooden engine... RHD. After it was finished being shown, it was united with a 2.8RSR engine.

I watched it run at a local historic event called the "Leyburn Sprints" here in Queensland - as I say at the time it was owned by Rob Sherrard of "Virgin Airlines" fame.

And yes, it copped a hit from a hay bail in the front left fender :(

All 917s were MFI.
