No it wont the front rails are diffrent. U would either have use your gsx rails or modify the rs or gs rails to fit. The engine and trans are swaped. Gs and rs engines are on the right and gst gsx are on the left. The rail were the trans is humped for clearnce of the tans. It can be done but its not an easy one probly be better of using the gs and rs chasis to repair yours depending were yor rust is.

this is actually not a bad idea im gonna do that just use it and fix mine all theway around but the i also have a crazy idea of making a tube chasis on the one i have left and custom installing a small block with 12" slicks and just using it as a track car i have the means to do it and the help and knowledge :hmm: can i get an opinion on that also
 
i think it be sick have best of both worlds my gsx runs mid 12's now i think small block with a 100 shot as long as i can keep the front end on the ground it will run 10's all day and that way i dont have to break my dsm all the time i can just break that one and parts for it would be cheap ill keep everyone posted on it im going to pick up that rs tomorrow that thing is pretty clean but what that kid said before i can just fix the rust on mine which is all on the rear of the car both rocker panels and where the tank is i can just swap that and still have the rs body to do something i think would be insane
