I plan to replace the IMSB/RMS/ clutch in my 01S early next year. I plan to keep the car for a long time so I'll install the LN option.

If you plan to sell the car in two years, why replace the IMSB and RMS at all? I suspect either buyers won't know/won't care about the IMSB issue or they would only pay a premium for a LN bearing install. If you're doing it for 2 years of peace of mind, then the low cost choice seems the way to go.

All of that said, I've yet to see hard numbers on the relative reliability of the LN v Pelican v Porsche bearings. My sense is the ceramic bearings are the best by far, but it's just a sense.
