Just to clarify things, getting a new aftermarket clutch will not change the way your clutch feels in the 997TT. It'd only make it better equipped to handle increased horsepower. I know because I looked into ways to make my clutch feel more like a GT2/GT3 and was told that I'd have to change out my entire clutch/brake/steering reservoir system. Forget it.

Bob, your car is amazing! Can we get more pics of it!?
On a side note, I am contemplating on getting the RSS Stage 2 Tarmac series but I am scared that the monoball parts will make a lot of noise after some use as the roads here in Hong Kong aren't the best.
Bob and other members who have RSS bits and pieces on their car can you guys chime in in regards to this? How many miles were driven with the RSS parts on and were there any sort of rattles and noises from the monoball parts?
Thanks!

I started with this avatar and name Bob MG (aka robert mugabe)and made address as Vienna when I was on M3 post. I did a heavily modified M3 with ESS SC and didn't ant the local BMW agents to track the car and cancel my motorplan. Also did a X6M
Safari Truck « Style up!
Its a very NICE! « Style up!
Needless to say I had a avatar of Borat and then changed to Bruno. I had a lot of dry humour fun there, and I suppose it all stuck.
Now im not too worried although generally I prefer to keep the SA locals out of my business
Will do some proper shoots when all the additional parts are all installed.
Got GT2 RS rear bumper and white LED's, Techart Geurney Flap (adjustable) and some other trinkets

Thats what I had in mind when I mentioned it. Anything to get rid of that hydraulic assist which kills any pedal feel on the clutch. I just spent a fortune on a new clutch, with lighter fly wheel, but it was worth it.
