So I recently bought a 2001/67k Boxster. It's a well looked after car and so far in the couple months of ownership I've not had to do that much; a full service (filters/belts/fluids), some minor interior replacements, change one of the Cats and a window regulator. The last oil filter inspection didn't show any signs of IMS failure (~1.5k miles ago) but I know that's no guarantee. I keep the revs high and drive spiritedly ;-) The car purrs like a kitten and she drives beautifully.

With all that I'm still keen on getting the (LN) IMS upgrade carried out. Shipping my car to Flat 6 in not an option (it's gonna cost over 1k to do that) however I have a local specialist who is more that capable of doing the work.

As well as the IMS upgrade, what other (enigine) work should be carried out at the same time . Here's my current list

IMS
RMS
Full clutch kit

given the age/mileage ...
AOS
Water Pump
Timing Chain + Tensioners

anything else?
