Looked at some 996/997 clutch diy's but they been for C2's so no front diff involved. But anyways it seems pretty straight forward to do the clutch on the 911's. So I might try this but looking for more turbo specific advice/info.

I'm going to attempt it on August (997.1tt).

If you do yours before then, definitely take notes. Would be a tremendous help.

well once you pull the front driveshaft off its not too different. that part is easy. undo the axels. undot the starter, undo the hydraulics, you lower the motor on the subframe and undo the tanny mount than there are 4 studs. tanny will come out if you have the angle right. some people claim you need to pull both motor and tranny, that is not true. some people also say you need to pull the top stud out, that is also not true.
