Default 987.1 2006 boxster s 3.2l clutch, rms, ims

for some stupid reason i let someone take my boxster on a short trip during a 'crisis' over the weekend when i was out of town

so, this morning i get in it to go to work, cranked it up, and immediately feel an unusual vibration

i let it warn up a bit, then try to engage 1st, no joy, then reverse, no joy, then 2nd, no joy

i shut it down

discussed it at length with Taylor Chapman, he seems to think sheer pin is broke

it has 65k miles, and i knew it was at least needing some clutch adjustment before this happened

so, now i am thinking full clutch service, rms, and perhaps ims

however, is the extra money on the ims worth it?

removing the bearing seal ring on the existing ims may be good enough with 65k miles on the car

any thoughts?
