I seen one done years ago and they had to weld in the GTR strut towers to take the GTR front struts.

The gas in the veins guy is the guy who want the driving activity. They keep things a bit more simple with the focus of getting out there and run. It's the driving part that motivates them more the then the project itself. Neither is better than the other, it's just a matter of personal satisfaction.

That being said. Having driven an R33 GTR and owning an S14, I will say that the R33 GTR felt just like an S14 but in AWD form. Even the smell was the same. It's like that smell that S13's have which are like the R32 chassis. Its amazing how familiar the car was to mine. My R33 GTST was even more like the S14. I don't see any major benefits though. You and I can talk about weight and blah blah but for that to really be a factor, do you have the talent on track to make that a factor. I see people put down times then strip some weights only to get a time that really didn't justify the effort. Like the guys that pull the AC because of weight savings. I'll sacrifice that .01 of a second to keep cool thank you. If you do begin make sure you do a build thread. It would be interesting to see.
