After all and under all circumstances I have made final decision what happen with my celis. I can not afford two of them but both has many advantages (one design and second power and traction). So I have only chance... two became one. The best from each will be taken. I hope in two months will be everything finished so stay tuned...
The plan: - to separate all "fancy" parts from ST-T (done!) - collect all parts for transformation and get GT-four ready (done!) - pass LHD conversion with GT-four (I know it hurts... but this is only way how to register car in CZ) (done!) - finish paint job... (done!) - tune new baby a bit  (in progress)Major work will do no one else but Romas him self . The best of the best for something like this... here I have few pics to share:August, 30th: Collection of parts for conversion has started... (complete LHD dash)    September, 2nd: Conversion date fixed, list of parts closed, conditions set... I'm full of optimism . Everything is perfect  . Fingers crossed...  To be continued...

just what I first thought when you got the gt4, just amazing the amount of work you have to do, so how are you going to do LHD part, your ST steering componants wounldn't fit would they?
