I think its time to upgrade

I've done a lot of thinking and it is most definitly time for me to make the jump to a 951. I just have some questiongs about it before I buy...

1. How many problems does it share with the NA? ie #2 bearing
2. Is the life of the timing belt the same as an NA?
3. Life of water pump aswell
4. Can you put a 968 6 speed trans in without major modifications?

I'm sure I know a lot more but I had a long night of being excited on my decision so I'm not running on that much sleep right now.

Thanks

Adam

obviously with all the plumbing and extra vac lines there's more to go wrong, and vac problems will be more serious.

The 968 trans will fit without too much work i think, but you will have to do something about the speed sensor, which isn't present on that transmission. 968s run the speedo off the abs.
