When I was looking to buy mine I...

By me, Union Line Garage quoted $3,000 for the RMS and IMS (no clutch) and that was with the LN part at ~900. The cost in my last post was at the Porsche dealer since they were covering the RMS and...

I just did this in May - additional labor was $350. The dealer let me ship the parts to them which cost ~1,100 including the flywheel, which was worn unevenly iirc. The parts from Porsche would...

As far as additional parts, I believe new caliper bolts are recommended and the originals have a star type pattern so a special socket to remove them - and the new ones have an allan looking head so...

Estimate from Union Line Garage in NJ earlier this year was $2,995 for the RMS and IMS using the LN part so if you are at $3,300 with a clutch job, it sounds fair.
