    Blitz told that they are buidling a GT-R for D1GP. Drivetrain conversion is done using Fairlady Z Z33 parts (i.e. gearbox, differentials and etc).

    What's fun: GT-R got a mated gearbox with differential - a transaxle one (ovlov style, lol) - and I don't know how they are going to manage the RWD layout. Probably mating the gearbox with the engine in the "normal" place, cutting the floorpan and making a small place for legs and pedals there.

    Also GT-R got sick electronics that even prevents installing wrong sized wheels. So they probably worked that out by removing all unexpectable sensors and setting up a new ECU. It's also most likely to have a nice turbo upgrade - as that's how Blitz started its business back in 1981.

    Anyway, would be fun to see how it slides, hehe.

    They can do really bad photoshopping by the looks of it too.

    The car would be stripped to a bare shell, and built from the ground up :nod:

    All the standard gubbins will be long gone! :D
