converting 996 to 997
Just wondering, Is it possible to convert a 996 to a 997 only in terms of driving/handling characteristics like suspension parts etc?

thanks

Easy peasy, Go into the garage, grab the gas cap off of the 996, push the old parts out and then push in the 997 parts and screw the cap on.

From a driving perspective the 3.6 997 does not feel all that different from my car..
