So what are the weak parts of these cars, specifically 987?

IMS- knew about it
RMS- knew about it
Alternator- did not know? new to me
Water pump-again, new to me
AOS-new to me

So in an 05 S it would be wise to upgrade to the LN IMS, but what about the other issues? Is it necessary to replace the waterpump, etc in these cars? If so, that is a significant amount on money to put into a new to me car.

And to think I've owned a few Boxster cars before and never had an issue!
