I have the 94-95 spoiler and I was wondering if I could fit the GT4 spoiler onto it.
Thanks ! --------------------  |

Wait a tick...your pic shows a three-post, which is a facelift 96+ spoiler.

Yeah, that's not the right spoiler. You need a preface 94-95 two-post. Give me a second to look up a pic. And yes, you would have to get the center hole filled/plugged.

Nope. You need a 2-post.

Does this mean I'd have to buy the WHOLE GT4 spoiler and not just the raiser blocks?
or I still can't? -------------------- |

Yes you need a 2post + raiser blocks. Holes wise, the middle hole will be of no use (duh). There will be 2 holes either side that only one can be used. Another 1 hole needs to be drilled to put the other hole. Or you can use the 1 hole on each side to hold down the spoiler

You need to purchase a 2post + raiser blocks. Drill 2 holes in your bootlid and your set for it. You really dont need any pictures lol. -------------------- |

no there isnt, cause it will just look silly.
What are you gonna do with the middle post? Just let it hang? Just get the whole gt-4 wing and be done with it. --------------------  98 ST204 ZR - Black Beauty - Roaming the streets of Sydney 73 TA22 LT - Tiffany Blue - Mint Classic Weekend Cruiser 75 TA22 LT - Snow White - Mint Classic Weekend Cruiser 77 RA28 LT - Flubber Green - Mint Classic Weekend Cruiser 94 MX-5 NA8 Clubman - Red Racer - Looking for corners WIP Project: 69 RT40 Corona, 2nd WIP Project: 66 RT40 1600s Corona 86 Corona RT142 - Daily Driver 6GC 4 Life Baby!!! |

lmao yeah, there are 2 different spoilers, one with 2 posts and 1 with 3 post (like yours), gt4 is just a 2 post (exactly the same as a normal celica 2 post, only with riser blocks)
hope that helps a bit better lol. |

2/5 holes will fit. You need to drill 2 more.

Really?? Are you sure? 2 Out of 5 holes will fit??? I expected 0 out of 5 to fit.... that should make things a little easier for lining up and then marking???
Wait.. I just looked, theres 7 holes on my boot.... (1996 facelift) - 3 each side and 1 in the middle. So what will fit???? I thought it would be impossible and that I should just start with a 1994 white st202 hatch and transfer over my gt4 badge -------------------- Mike W

its not too hard to drill holes for the wing but you will have to buy the blocks and the wing
the spoiler you have now will just be left off -------------------- "she can polish my strut bar anytime As long as her blow-off valve's in good order"

You absolutely cannot use the 3 post spoiler on riser blocks. Not happening. Look at the legs of the 2 post spoiler, front to back. It's pretty long. Now look at the legs of your 3 post spoiler. Not very long at all. The spoilers have two completely different legs. The legs of the 2 post sit perfectly right on top of the riser blocks. The legs of the 3 post would not even take up half of the top of the riser blocks. Not to mention that the base of the 2 post is wider and goes out to the very edge of the hatch, and the legs on the 3 post don't go out near as far. It's like trying to put a door from a Corolla onto our cars. Yeah, they're both made by Toyota, but that's where the similarities end.

I didn't mean use the raiser blocks on a 3-post, but I just worded the question wrong. My bad.
But yeah I'm looking for a 2-post one at the moment and hopefully some GT4 raiser blocks as well. So thanks for everyones contribution. -------------------- |
