I just did 964rs engine and 997 trans mount on my car. I am a newb and made a rookie mistake doing the trans mount. The location I used to support the transmission made it so I could not remove the carrier mount once it was all unfastened. Had to reinstall, re-strategize position of jack so it did not obstruct the carrier and all was good after that. Fool me once..Just a heads up for you.

thanks for sharing that. I just ordered mine so I will be attempting that job in the next few weeks. Also doing the rs mounts. Cheers!
I also did the 964RS mounts. At idle you can definitely feel a bit of NVH that you don't with the stock mounts. The biggest bummer is that you can't really lower the motor on these mounts like on the stock ones as the 964 mounts are held in with nut and bolt vs stud and nut...
I finally got around to installing the GT3 oil dipstick, (after the parts were sitting in a box the past 3 years) new motor mounts, replaced faulty oil pressure sensor (2nd time in 3 years) pressure was reading 1 bar with engine not running.
Next couple of days I will replace the alternator brushes and voltage regulator, replace coolant tank, and finally replace transmission mount with upgraded 997 mount.
Whew!
Pretty sure when I last checked on the consortium of parts required for this, they were all on indefinite back order....

Anyone get these parts?
I checked with Sonnen, they said 2-3 days out. The prices have come down to about $250 for the filler tube, guide tube, retaining clip and oil cap. I paid $170 3 years ago.

Can you please share the part# for the tranny mount? Is this the correct number? 99737503303
Thanks!

….can’t we just run a longer bolt say M12 x 1.2 x 130-135mm? I believe the length of the bolt for our cars using this mount is M12 x 1.2 x 125 mm (900 082 118 09)
