Doing clutch.. engine will be out! Any suggestions?

Clutch needs changing on my 993 C2, engine will be out too! Its not every day you have a 993 engine out..So While its out I figured now is a good time to do any crucial upgrades, preventative maintenance... Any suggestions?

Check your cv joints for wear, repack them with grease. Replace the engine sound mat if yours is worn/falling out. Check for and fix the common oil leaks.

Not sure if your Fuel Pressure Regulator is in the same spot, but I would definitely change that hard to get item. Anything that is hard to get to for that matter.

Valve adjust, Gear lube change

Replace that 3.6 with a 3.2 as they are much more reliable. I'll find a good home or that crappy lil 3.6!

Self Adjusting, that takes the fun out :P

Well, that makes it easier.
