Anyone have any GT3 (street) motor problems?

The GT3's been out for a while now, been used daily and flogged on track...anyone had any motor problems?

If so, what happened and why?

Thx.

...friend of mine is using his stock GT3-RS on track only - 80% Nordschleife - with ZERO problems engine-wise on more than 10.000km - the M96.79 engine is well know for its outstanding performance and reliability.
