What did you do to your 996TT today?

It's broken somewhere in the back and as a result, it ate the air con, making the car toasty to drive.

So it looks like probably the motor and transmission are coming out (oy vey) to fix some issues, including a problem with the pressure plate and my wiring harness likely needing replacement. @2fcknfst and I have been making a shopping list for my car, which is so far including, but not limited to:
-Wavetrac LSD
-New clutch uprated for the power I'm actually pushing (1.2 bar Markski tune in the high 5's)
-BBi Clutch Slave Conversion
-Possibly Numeric cables
-All new rubber everything
-Confirm everything is pinned/welded as I was told when the car was sold to me
-GT3 Dipstick conversion
Anything else, "while we're in there"?

Dock, 2fckfast is correct. That's what I've been told currently, but there's likely a bit more sleuthing to do prior to confirming and ripping the motor out.
@2fcknfst I'm not spending 20k on a rebuilt transmission! :P

Question for those of you with the BBi conversion: do you find it "too" heavy? I originally had the GT2 conversion (done very mickey mouse), re-did it back to stock (where it was very light, which I was okay with since I do drive in traffic), but now I'm worried about the stock setup failing at a later date and I've got to take it all down again. Did anyone do the BBi conversion and not like it?
