Default 997 GT3 RS MKII convert to PDK

Hi Guys,

First, please let me introduce my self,
My name Ikhsan and I'm from Indonesia.


I love the manual transmission on GT3 RS. but I have a question about 997 GT3 RS MkII, since this cars born with the manual transmission, it's possible to convert with PDK transmission? it's look like a funny and a simple question but maybe someone in here have a good aswer about this.


Thanks.

Not even remotely possible.

This thread is now about shetlan ponies wearing cardigans.

Send US$500,000 to my Nigerian banker friend so I can begin work on your PDK conversion immediately!

Probably could convert to a tip s. But, what's the point?
Better yet, trade it in a turbo s w a pdk that's as fast or faster.

Simple answer is it's not worth it! Sell and buy a 991 GT3 when it comes out, it'll be faster too!

I think its a good question and EVERY thing is possible with enough money and time. Do it and keep us updated, it would be an interesting project and one of a kind.

Love the off topic 'horse/poney' show. Obviously when you are stuck on the tiny Shetland isles knitting cardies for the Shetland ponies is a popular and probably ONLY past time lol!

The pony in the red cardie is the drag strip version hence the rack and the Micky Thompson shoes...
