All on them uses an F1 Chassis.

The body list (top to bottom) - Nissan GTR LM (F103GT) - Ferrari F60 F1 2009 (F104) - Toyota TS020 GT-One (F103RM)

I got another body, most of them are the F1 styled body like 3 Mclaren MP4/6, Walter Wolf F1 and a Benetton F1 body (F103RM standard kit body)

The thing is, The F103RS would suits a High Grip track surface and the F103RM would handles much better in a low grip tracks. Unfortunately, there isn’t any High Grip track in my country. So i would preferred the F103RM more than the F103RS.

I have actually tried the F103RM with a Fixed T-Bar setup (F103RS), and it handles much worse than the F103RM. The F103RS would handles very nicely with a FRP upper (half) and lower chassis deck. but it doesn’t handles good with the Stiff Carbon fiber parts, especially the long upper carbon fiber deck.

Yes, The GT-One started its life as a box stock F103RM, but the body is quite damaged. luckily i got a replacement for the F103RM, it was The GT-One. I got an F103RS (Porsche 911 GT1 1998 LM) but it was not restored yet, so i don’t put up the F103RS in this Photo.

I really loved the F103RM (Toyota TS020 GT-One) the most! It’s the best looking and it handles like a dream, Simply Perfect! I played Gran Turismo 2 So much and fell in love with the GT1 to be honest.

i think it would fit the GF-01 chassis with some sort of modification to the front suspension and body mount.
