Difficult question to answer, because there are many ways to approach the change over. In simple terms if you use EVERYTHING from the subframes to the wheels from the GTST, then it will FIT the GTR. It might look a bit stupid, wheels in from the guards a long way etc, but it will FIT . It becomes difficult when you want to use some GTST and some GTR components, then you find that things WON'T fit. GTST shocks with GTR rear uprights (hubs) for example, they won't fit. GTST diff with GTR drive shifts, they won't fit either. GTST front shocks with GTR uprights (hubs), they will FIT but it will be about 50 mm too high. Similiary, the GTR 4wd front subframe with the GTST 2wd radius rods etc etc.

My suggestion, it's all or nothing, don't try and mix them, you will pull you hair out in frustation when even simple things don't bolt up.
