I‘m looking for tool similar to Phipli‘s Soft-475 but for PPC..there's also ZDNet Clock, MacPro Overclock Tool for Intel Macs but I couldnt find anything for 603e PPC ( as in powerbook 5300)

You mean something different to changing the PLL resistors near the CPU?

The speed is set only via the hardware and cannot be changed while a 603 is running. Unless there's a PPC mac with a dedicated external microcontroller to set the speed (not aware of any), no chance.
