Go for it and goodluck.

I think it's a bit unfair people saying, don't do that you could make your car way faster etc, as mentioned everyone has their own preferences when comes to modifying cars. I've personally just finished doing a complete gtr lookalike conversion on my gtt, (spraying this week) and I'm really happy with the results. Things to be wary of, or mention to guys doing, petrol flap is a mare, will need a new hinge setup in it, or get a factory gtr flap, and cutout hinging point to match a factory gtr before you fit over fenders. (the gtt body has the template marked on it) I didn't know/do this and made life a bit trickier. Possible look for gtr rear tail light covers to match your gaurds, or build you factory gtt ones out to suit. (what I did not hard and ya get a perfect match) If you're using the fibreglass rear quarters, your factory skirts will match in if you trim the height behind the door, the fibreglass gaurds stop close to factory gtt skirt height. Also the fibreglass gaurds are actually 20 odd mm wider than factory gtr, definately a more aggressive stance, but if you trying to make an exact replica, not the same. And unfortunately, an estimate at 6k, would be pretty generous. I've done all the work myself, made all my own molds and gtr parts, (if you want any I can make GTR factory side skirts, rear bumper, fromt bumper, nismo skirts, z tune front splitter, nismo rear pods, and the rear overfender) And all on the car and primed I was roughly around 4K. That was tubbing rear gaurds, materials, and paying to borrow and repaint factory Items. If you put labour ontop, bill will add up quickly. If it's something you want you definately be happy with the results.

F*ck. Sorry for the triple post.

LOL, I get an error message almost every time I attempted to add a post. Unfortunately, GTRs are rare and the ones that are legal are stupid expensive in the states. I found a nice R34 GTT in New York that I'll convert into a GTR

Go for it and goodluck.

I'm looking to convert my *FUTURE* GTT to a Z-tune. Hope you can help.
