To the Left is a front view of the GT4 I have bought and all I have done is re-paint the Wipers since buying this car as they were very tatty. I will start to modify this car very soon.
This site to show you all the Celica GT4 ST185 I have purchased and to show the changes that I make to the car in the period of time I own it for. I will be putting pictures of the car on this site and pictures of all the modifications I make to the car as and when they are being done. Hope you all like what you see and I will also be putting a buyers guide on here as soon as I learn a lot more about this car.

I bought this car on the 31/03/2003 From Fabia @ JapCars in Hythe. Here are a few details about the car when I bought it.
This car had covered 46000 kilometres when I bought it and was still reading in KPH. I was amazed to see that the car had only covered an amazingly low 28750 miles from new (which is backed by the previous MOT's).
I bought this car as I wanted a rare Japanese 2.0 4WD Turbo charged car which has a lot of potential and this was rare to find a Celica GT4 with Full Leather Interior, Low Mileage and full electrics kit. (This is a Jap Import)
The cars standard specification is as follows:
ST185 JAP Spec
Production 1990-1994 BHP 225@6000 Torque (lbs ft) 224lb@3200 Turbo Twin entry EFI L-Jetronic Intercooler Air-Air Dump Valve No Cubic Capacity 1998cc Intake Port size Large Valve (In-Ex in mm) 33.5/29.0 Lift (mm) 8.2/8.2 Throttle Body 55mm Injector Size 430cc Fuel Cut 12psi MPG ???????? UNKNOWN Fuel Super Optimax Unleaded Dimensions 14' 6" x 5' 9"
The car had a few slight modifications when I bought it which consisted of the following:
Full Kakimoto Exhaust System with 6" Rear Box
16" Lightweight Monza Speed Deep Dish Split Rim Alloy's (1 or 1000 sets ever produced)
Custom Welded in Blitz Sequential Blow Off Valve
HKS Turbo Timer
TRD / Momo Steering Wheel
Momo Racing Alloy Pedal Kit
Alloy Gear Lever
Alloy Hand Brake Button
Custom Made Fuel Tank Guard Bolted Under Rear
Possible Quick Shift Kit (Still to be confirmed)
KYB Uprated Shocks All Round
Lowering Springs UNKNOWN I am purchasing PI 40mm lowering springs even if the cars already got a set as I want it to sit a little lower
Fabia used to be an amateur rally driver in France and his trade mark was a dark blue line all the way round the lower half of the car which HAS been done to the GT4. I was not to keen on this when I bought the car but it has grown on me and gives the car an individual look.
This stripe may be removed or the car may be painted in full in this blue but I am still trying to decide what I want to do or whether to put a full kit on the car.
