Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Well it seems like this topic has been tackled here and there but there is no definitive cumulative list anywhere. So I was wondering if you guys can help me out.
My clutch is slipping. When in second gear and I give it some gas, it revs and I go nowhere. And now it smells like a burning clutch.
Clutch nor the IMS has been changed and I have just about 100k miles.
Rear main seal started leaking about 6 months ago.
So with all that, and my mileage I am assuming the following:
Clutch kit w/ Throw out bearing
Flywheel - considering the mileage
Rear Main Seal
IMS bearing replacement (LN or Pelican - any thoughts from someone who has seen or made a recent decision?)
997 clutch fork - not sure which one, part number would be nice if you have it)
Clutch master and slave cylinder (is this even necessary)
Any other parts or thoughts on the matter would be greatly appreciated. I think I may go aftermarket clutch and flywheel since I will be taking my car off the road in the near future for exclusive track use.
Thanks again guys!
Philip, do you know what maintenance has been completed in the past (outside of IMSB, clutch & RMS)? Always a good idea to check the coolant hoses as well as the serpentine belt right-off-the-bat.
If you're going to perform the clutch work yourself, there are DIY articles here on Rennlist as well as instructions we've put together here:
Replacing The 996 Clutch
We offer

Clutch Disc
Pressure Plate
Pressure Plate Bolts
Throw-Out Bearing

How much longer do you anticipate the car to be street-driven before a dedicated track car?
Mark/Pelican Parts
Do some more searching and you should find more,. I just did this a few months ago. In addition to what Pelican said here:
Add:
Pivot pin
slave cylinder
RMS (if its not in list above)
replace the SR Pelican SR bearing with the CH bearing (sorry Mark)
locking tools
IMSB tools
RMS tool
Is it possible to do a GT3 RS Clutch and flywheel conversion? Or any thoughts on aftermarket such as SPEC? I really would like a lightened flywheel but then I need to goto a sprung hub. Any thoughts are appreciated.
I've done the research regarding the flywheels throwing off balance but if I had the sprung hub and clutch assembly balanced would that have the same effects of dampening of the dual mass flywheel?
