Default Curious about turning GSR into ITR

This may well be a pointless question but what are the major differences from GSR to ITR? ie motor totally different, better blah blah blah. I'm aware there are performance differences. I'm just curious it's probably not even worth it, haha. Thank you.

yes very pointless. the headlights, interior (i think), rims (itr is 5lug), and of course the engine. if u want an ITR just buy the b18c5 h:

The whole car is different from the frame up.


You can never turn a GSR into an ITR.

the level of work and money involved wouldnt be worth it seeing as it will always be an imitation, gsr has a b18c1 typer has a b18c5; gsr is 4 bolt, itr is 5; the entire suspension is different between the two; interior is different; different wing; different lip kit; basically 75 percent of the car is different...

by the time you found all the right pieces and converted u would be just as good off as getting an actual type r and not wasting all the time and money for a fake

to be honest, i'd suggest you just take that money and just build up your GSR, the actual numbers aren't THAT different, u could make good power w/ the kind of money it would take to do a full ITR conversion, more respect toofor the man hours put into it

The ITR doesn't have a sunroof either, so you would have to weld yours up.

So not worth it. You would just look like a poser.

waste of money and time, and type R more then anything else is the imagie that it carries, so u would looks liek a tard tryin to be an R, or u could use that money and do some great stuff to your GSR, and out perform a type R (stock one) in every aspect
