LWFW for 997GT3???

My dealer has just told me that the LWFW on the 997 RS is NOT compatible with the non-RS GT3

I was hoping to upgrade, but I guess its not in the cards after all.

Anyone hear otherwise, or actually done this? If so, what's the part # and other details?

thanks

Theres got to be. I dont see why the RS stuff wouldnt work

Check out Viper bob at VB motorsports.

the LWFW is not even a 997 part but a old school Porsche part.

I will I think we're supposed to get it it at the end of the month... I really don't like the response with the standard dual mass. Just makes the car feel lazy in comparison to the RS. Luckily it's a straightforward thing to do.

From speaking to 997GT3 owners that have it, they say that it's as much of a "must do" as it was on 996 GT3's. Good luck!
