Default Cup car trans mount on 997 turbo

Is it plug and play/bolt on?

Generally the 996 part numbers will work while the 997 part numbers will not. In this diagram. The 996 references a g50 6 speed in the cup whilenthe 997 bits are the transition pieces needed for sequential in 997 cup also. So if you just do 996 cup parts ref trans mods those should work for you.
make sense?

Hey guys, so just to update a little bit here. After doing some more research I've discovered that this trans mount might be a bolt on ordeal. I will update tm

​​​​​​

So in theory... cup car trans mount would be replacing # 23. And 1 in the second diagram of the first post.


My car is going on the lift tm morning so once its up ill confirm if this will work or not. I will hopefully be ordering a cup car trans mount tm 💪🏼🤞🏼

IMO you're correct with that #1 & 23 replacement. Are you aware that NVH will be exponentially increased? I have urethane bushings in transmission and engine carriers + LWFW, long (er than 15') drives requires hearing protection...

Yes will work.. but dont do it unless you also change the engine mounts to solid... cant have the gearbox solid mounted and the engine rubber mounted and vice versa or will tear the solid mount ( or worse, the tail casing ) up..
