As far as tracking your 996, consider yourself lucky because when your 1 part number for Porsche transmission or engine fails, you'll be buying an entire new one. Also the 996 is rather worthless on the track since you can't even regear the darn thing since every gear is press fit onto the mainshaft.

Absolute bullschit. You wear your ignorance like a badge of honor. There are more factory-supported, ready-to-race 996/997 cars than there ever were when your POS was new. Why did you have to change the engine? How much did that cost? Couldn't have been much, right? Only about 4 times what a crate 996 trans costs from Porsche. Life is too short to work on slow cars all the time. Some guys just want to drive.
And for people who care about performance, not some "mystique" that they don't even understand, Toyota builds some dead reliable everyday cars that are faster than your sled.
