I am looking for a 997 GT3 shop manual. I called the dealer near me, no help. I saw a posting and someone said they had one. How do i get my hands on one.

 

Me too!

 

I have the 997 factory service manual which will allow you to do about 70% of the work on the GT3 (i.e., interior removal, bumpers, etc). What are you looking to do?

 

Thanks P92, I really wanted to obtain one to learn more about the car. as far as my plans I a roll bar and GT3 seats that I am going to install. I am new to this form and thankful for it, have found excellent info. Hear in the tech section i found good step by step instructions on the roll bar. On Rennlist I found step by step instructions for the seats. On the manual, i want to see if it can help me with stuff like oil change, plugs.
I am tracking this car so i want to lean about the suspension adjustments (how to). Have had this car for three months, and love it. I am one of those guys who like to learn it and do it himself because I want to be sure its done right. Plus its fun.

 

Maybe this one will be of some use to you? http://www.carlsenporsche.com/access...81&category=24

 

Can I ask where you found the manual, sorry about the last post It should have been P97 Not 92. When it comes to making suspension changes for track days, do most do it by on there own or have a garage do it. I would stay away from alignment issues but I would think sway bar adjustments should not be to bad. I will order that Manual referenced by PHC1 and let you know what is in it.

 

I am interested also. Maybe we could do a group buy?

 

That's the tech manual. Even though it says "service information", I don't think it details service procedures...just info.

Got the CD from PorschePower@plasticexperts.com

It's the "997 Factory Workshop Manuals on CD". I think it was about $40 or so. Well worth the price of admission.

Used it to take apart my interior to put seats in the rear, and to remove my bumpers to put on my Sharkwerks exhaust. The manual is very detailed and even has torque specs for those important bolts.

 

I tried to order the manual I mentioned above from Carlsen Porsche with no luck. Not in stock and no ETA at all.

 

Thanks for the info I will order it and see what I can learn. In next few months I will have to come back and ask you about your choice if the sharkwerks vs the gmg exhaust system. After i get the seats roll bar and belts in this car i want to do the exhaust

They are similarly priced (Sharkwerks about $300 cheaper) and in sound. Your choice depends on if you want the stock tips or the GMG tips.

 

Emailed Porschepower. Does the CD you bought include instructions for the 997 Turbo too or is each CD model specific?

 

You can ask him if he's got the TT workshop. But the one I got is only for the 997 Carreras, but should somewhat applies depending on what you're servicing.

 

I emailed him and apparently the 997 manual CD includes 5222 pages of information(!)

Ordering it along with the latest PET cd too.
