Ok you'll need a GT4 part car. You need the whole drive chain from front to back. Including engine, wiring and ECU. Don't know if you can use 5th gen drive chain.
Now if you can find a GT4 part car then why not fix it instead of swapping to a GT/GTS?

Wow, a lot of misinformation in those other threads. The only completed conversion I've ever seen on the internet was a 5th gen that the owner actually purchased. There was a lot of inconsistancies with his story. But it turns out a previous owner had welded in the back half of the floor pan of an alltrac. Otherwise nothing will bolt up. Before that I would look into options of importing one first.
