Default PROJECT GSR/R *lets work together on this*

Just bought this 95 GSR shell and im in LOVE with ITR's. Couldnt afford the O.G. one, could you blame me? Any ways, this is a first time project. Any ideas where to start, or what I might be needing other than the motor. Feel free to express any opinions!

Holly crap looks like to much work I don't even wanna deal with it. Haha actually too much money to put into it I don't wanna deal with it

Well you gotta get the seats first so you can sit on....maybe ITR seats if you're building from a GSR to a ITR?

Contact Brian (B18C1_powered_si) regarding the front end and motor.

I second the notion that you contact Brian for all of your oem part needs. He can get you jdm recaro's, dash pieces, whatever you want.

Ahhh ahhaha and in your sig it says keep it simple...

Well, since its mostly apart, maybe you can put the driver in the middle of the car? The optimal driving position eh? Hahaha, but seriously...

Since its already apart, is the paint good? If it kidna sucks, you can get the whole car painted.

I agree, find an engine first, then worry about the rest. You can drive around without half your dash. I always thought it'd be interesting to drive around with a stripped interior... Were you going to recarpet it and stuff?

Is there anything on the car to sugest that it WAS a GSR shell? Just wondering.

Not to bag, but the Type R has much more stiffness than the GSR chassis. If I were you, since it's already stripped out, seam weld that bitch. HUGE difference in the strenghth of the chassis.
