hey can you quote like everyone else? Half of your posts I don't even bother to read because
of all the>>><<< $$## crap, and whos conversion is it yours or pipes?

Could the original poster post some pics that someone can actually see something. I was under the impression the rear
clip from a 205 was used but the pics above look like a modifed 202 subframe with a bunch
of reinforcement. The pics on the first page are pretty much useless, it says excuse the flash but then you say they are cell phone pics.
I don't own a picture phone, but I didn't think they had a flash?
I can't believe anyone would do a project this big and not take any pics of the progress. My BS flag is being unfurled as of now.

Wow...thats some project to undertake....100% for effort.....but unfortunately only 10% for result...no offense or anything but that looks like the most dangerous set up I have ever seen, I hope your not going to take it on the road like that. Knowing how much force goes through the rear end of a GT4 its likely to rip itself to pieces very quickly

This will be my last post on this subject until the car is complete I jus wanted to share the progress.... 1 the pictures by gman are of my car he came by...... 2 the floor pieces are of a gt-4 that's how we fitted the gas tank etc...... 3 as har as it holding up when you have the floor of the gt-4 and the floor of the st204 there isn't much differnce the part that holds a stock gt-4 cradle is held in by 6 spot welds and glue... also the frame rails are narrower.....4 the reason there aren't many pics is because we were concerneed about finishing the project than making a play by play account....somebody said it can't be done we just wanted to see if it was true.. thanks for all the support sorry for the crappy pics any of the boston members are more than welcome to come take a look.... any questions shoot me a pm...... I'm off to finish this beast

pipes, just wondering, did you only got the floor pan of the gt-four? or did you get the entire rear half of the car? if you got the entire rear half i have a couple of awd conversion pictures that might be of help in re-inforcing the rear end.

It is "Finished " in the sense that it is on the ground with an AWD drive train and an ST205 engine installed.
Once the gas tank and other stuff is installed, it wil be a runner I am Sure. thumbsup.gif

Stock gas tank to go in.


ST205 engine in.


RHD Interior


Pass side of the Rear frame


Front of the driver's side rear frame, mounted.


More pics later ? Rather hard right Now with the car on the ground.
If I put on some ragged clothes and get down and dirty...

Best of luck to completion. woot.gif

Gman posted up pics. So Gman probably saw it haha.

I wish people would calm down in this thread - it's getting very close to completion. Imagine how you would feel if you're all hyped up about nearing completion of something so sought after and all anyone can do is talk trash and call BS. Another member has been over to see it and posted pics and the invitation has been given to stop by and see it.
The only thing I can say is some of those welds look not so good - others look very good. If it were me [and I've done a fair bit of structural welding in my time] I'd be going over every one of those and strengthen everything I could. I also assume you will be putting the car through a series of progressively more rigorise testing - we don't want the next update to be you dead [or other drivers] or the car mysteriously took a left all by itself and is now a pretzel [has happened with this very swap before].
Good luck

Thanx death.... glad you understand...but can you point out the welds that you think are weak? And yes lots of testing will be going on to make sure....well if you can point those out so I can redo that would be awesome
