A few minutes of personal research has proved quite valuable in attaining more information on this conversion... here is a recap...
1) Its made by SCRE and is regarded as the "Super Elite conversion" or the Z80 conversion.
2) Its baller expensive, in the neighborhood of 3500-4000 shipped
3) Its sick nasty rare to find for sale, quite possibly out of production, so Yahoo! JPN would be your best bet.
that was off of fresh alloy, and was the first time I have ever seen a price tag associated with it.

I've seen a few of these in magazines here in Japan, as well as the kit for auction on Yahoo.Jp. They run around $3500 for the kit price & it replaces everything with fiberglass

can't find it in the US, only Japan.
it's about $4000 after importing (rough estimate).
