The first year of 2 of 996 used the 993 style rod shifter

Seems to me that you could buy a 993 RS mainshaft and then gear to suit, also add all the other motorsport goodies for the cost of a 996Cup trans that doesn't really fit well

Yeah, that's exactly what I did (taller 1st/mainshaft). With all the hassles of trying to make the 996 box fit, it probably would have come out to about the same dollar amount. Also, I don't mind paying a little extra for piece of mind that it was done right.

Check out www.peakgarage.net in Turkey, they have made a few.,got all the ancliliaries and ideas from them.
Do you have any photo's of your install? Would love to see how you did the tail mount.

Never heard of a 997 TT RS. Nor a G50/80 for that matter...
