Im new to this site.
Im wondering if i can find any gt4 or all trac around where i live (Boston, Massachusetts) or will it be easier to just convert a normal celica to a gt4. If it is possible to convert Will it even work because i don't know if the st205 gt4 came wide body, so if i take everything from a gt4 (for example) will it fit a gt liftback of the same model year. Because then i can just do that find all the exterior pieces buy the motor, tranny etc. and just put it into a gt lift back. I do want it awd i want it exactly the same (mechanically) but if i cant have the extroir exact that's fine. Comment Please. |

I'll put it this way,, anything can be done, with the right amount of money, just depends how much you want to throw at it. My recommendation is, unless you plan on keeping your celica forever, then I wouldn't do that swap because again it will be pricey plus if you eventually sell it either way you will lose money. I've sold many cars that i've dropped thousands into and you'll never get it back, unless you got yourself a very exotic car. You can ride the celica out, save your money, and then be in a position to get whatever dream car you want, or something close ofcourse. Another option is do little mods here and there, until you figure out if you do want to keep the car for years to come, or sell it after some point. Eh just thoughts.
