well i finally was able to get a digital camera and post up some pics of my project. im converting my celica st to a gt4. all wheel drive and all. the motor is put in and runs great, purrs like a kitten...... im in the process of doing my rear end now. its gettin there. well here are some pics of my masterpiece in progress.
 -gt4 front end conversion  -front end w/ hood open  -the rear end is in place, almost ready to bolt up.  -side view of the celi  -interior....what a mess. never thought it would look like that!  -engine....ahh pretty. at least i think so! well tell me what you think and if you have any suggestions.... feel free to let me know. I fixed your links so they would work here. Nice swap. This post has been edited by defgeph: Oct 28, 2005 - 8:25 AM |

You're project looks to be coming along great. Congratulations on making it this far. I hope the rest of the build goes as smoothly.
If you don't mind I've got a few questions for you. Which rear end did you decide to use? Axles? Which Knuckle/hub/bearing combonation? Strut setup? Swaybar? Brake discs and calipers/caliper mounting brackets? The reason I asked is because that doesn't look like the 6th gen GT4's super strut setup. I assume it's from an ST185 alltrac but I really hate to guess. --------------------  Project ST204.5 99.88946% complete... |
