This is an awesome thread and the kind of posts that makes RL and some of the members fun.
I hope to see more updates here as I am seriously thinking about doing the same thing for the street!
It also makes me glad to be a 997GT car owner!
OP, will this GT3 be used primarily as a track car or a street car? What are your expectations from a day to day drivability, idling, oil/coolant temps, etc?

what else is being done? 4L clutch kit, pinning lines?

I’m also getting the coolant lines pinned and installing the RS 4.0 clutch, pressure plate, and single mass flywheel. I’m fitting adjustable lower control arms in the rear. The only non-standard suspension parts are drop links and rear toe links. My car already had its limited slip differential rebuilt last year with Porsche Motorsport clutch plates.

OP, any need to do aftermarket coilovers with a build like this? Sounds like you'll be doing aftermarket rear CAs, drop links and rear toe links.
Ever consider the 997 RSR Sachs triple carbon clutch instead of the 4.0 clutch? One of my favorite builds runs it. It's a different animal than the 4.0 but curious to hear your thought process if it was considered.

I didn’t really consider the RSR clutch. I thought the RS 4.0 clutch-flywheel combo would be “racy” enough for me.
