Post some pic's of your car and welcome to the Forum!

The IMS is not as big of a problem as these forums make it out to be. My 1999 has 100,000 miles on the original IMS and the engine runs like its brand new. Two of my friends with Boxsters had their IMS bearing replaced (both at over 80,000 miles) because of the worry and both bearings were in perfectly good condition.

These engines are made to rev so don't be afraid to drive it like it was meant to be driven and enjoy yourself.
