I wouldn't make sense to try to duplicate a GT3, far better and cheaper to simply buy a GT3. However parts interchangability does offer interesting options. The GT3 Cup suspension parts car be fit to street cars and are even more aggressive. Used 996 Turbos are cheap, bulletproof, can make huge power and drop serious weight with 2wd conversions.

You can make nearly anything fit, though you may well be better off simply buying a used GT3 Cup car or RSR. The street car parts can be found here: https://www.stuttcars.com/technical/pet/

It all depends on your goals. And the depth of your pockets.
