In this thrilling installment from Tj Hunt, we are introduced to his latest acquisition, a jaw-dropping R34 GTT in the eye-popping EV1 Lightning Yellow color. Now, before you start yawning and muttering "not another R34," hold your horses, because this is no ordinary GTT. Tj reveals his master plan to transform this little brother of the mighty GTR into an exact replica of his beloved Midnight Purple 2 GTR. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, this GTT is destined to become the next giveaway car, and it's going to be a showstopper.

But let's not get ahead of ourselves. Tj takes us on a tour of this GTT, pointing out the differences between it and its more illustrious sibling. From the narrower body to the different front end and hood, this GTT may be smaller, but it certainly doesn't lack in style. And let's not forget the interior, which, apart from a few minor variations, looks and feels just like the GTR. It's clear that Tj has big plans for this car, including sourcing GTR seats and making some interior tweaks to ensure it lives up to its full potential.

Now, I know what you're thinking. Why on earth would Tj want another R34 when he already has two GTRs? Well, my dear petrolheads, the answer is simple: this GTT is going to be the ultimate prize for one lucky winner. Tj's vision is to create a clone of his Midnight Purple 2 GTR, complete with all the original pieces from that iconic car. And to sweeten the deal, he plans to give this GTT a serious power boost, aiming for a whopping 500 horsepower. Yes, you heard that right. This GTT is going to be a rear-wheel-drive beast, capable of tearing up the tarmac and leaving its competitors in the dust.

But let's not forget the race that awaits us. Once the transformation is complete, the GTT will go head-to-head with the GTR, pitting all-wheel-drive against rear-wheel-drive, 600 horsepower against 500. It's going to be a battle for the ages, a clash of automotive titans. So buckle up, folks, because Tj Hunt is about to take us on a wild ride, and we can't wait to see how this GTT evolves into the ultimate dream machine.
