What about the clutch/flyweel? and the electronical adjustements between rear and FWD?

From Reylands site:
As well as engine transplants, we're also able to offer alternative tranmission options. A Good example of these would be our Skyline GTR gearbox for Ford Cosworth models - replacing the fragile Cosworth 4WD gearbox with the far stronger Nissan solution. We've carried out conversions using both an original 5-speed GTR gearbox and an OS Giken 6-speed sequential 'box. Both conversions included modifications to the vehicle floorpan, custom bellhousing work and also the eleltroncs work enabling the driver to adjust the 4WD split from full 50:50 4WD to 100% rear wheel drive at the twist of a dial.
