I am posting for a friend who is not on this forum. But I figured there would be a lot of interest here so here we go. It is a 94 celica gt that has been converted to have an st205 drivetrain. Its best time at bandimere speedway here in Colorado(well above 5,000 feet in elevation wink.gif ) was a 13.3.
Eveything is up to stock st205 spec, but above and beyond that...
mods:
Drivetrain
-Mines ECU
-Apexi AFC tuned to 11.5 a/f across the board
-3in downpipe
-JDM sheep dog "Prof" Blow off valve
-HKS intake
-custom 3in exhaust
-Spec stage 2+ clutch( approx 5k miles on it)
-Fidanza 9lb flywheel with removable friction surface
suspension
-Gab sport struts(front has been converted to st205 superstrut with new parts)
-TRD coil springs
-Gram light wheels
Brakes
Stock st205, but you would NEVER need better brakes bigger than these on a 3000lb car(w/ driver). And yes we weighed it. It made me and my 3450lb car(also w/ driver) want to cry. Same brakes as a TT Supra
The body is all stock st205, but im sure you are all wondering if it has these items(it does)
-Gt-four front bumper
-Gt-four hood(wrc)
-Gt-four spoiler risers
Things it is missing:
-The rocker panel molding, but the ones off of a 25th ani would be perfect.
-Also missing the projector headlights but technically, 94's did not have that wink.gif .
-And last, it needs jdm tail lights

The rear gas tank could not be used with the st205 rear subframe so it was eliminated and replaced by a 10gallon fuel cell. Right now, it needs paint. But he will be having it painted before sale to recoop some of the massive amount of money he is losing in this car. It will be repainted by a guy who does work on all kinds of vintage and exotic cars. I have been told that a ferrari was once shipped to him from California for his quality of work

I only have one picture of the car at this time, and its not a good one. Once he gets the car up to me I will take more pictures(old friend from high school. He goes to school in Denver, I go to school in Fort Collins)

The reason for selling is that the car has put him into very unstable debt and he is having financial trouble trying to balance College and car payments
Asking price is $14,000 with new paint. He will accept offers without paint if your speedy about it
Thanks guys! biggrin.gif

This Car has been around for sale for a while.
I was tempted, and got a chance to test drive it Long ago.
I still am tempted, but it is an Expensive project.
The person buying it has to have ready cash and a an ability to spend it !
I don't know if I am That guy.

> Its not up for trade. He needs to dig himself out of the debt this car cornered him into in the first place

Debt is a Bad place to be. :-(

> 1) its one of two, which funny enough are both up for sale

Funny BOTH need work and are Projects, despite being Rare.
There are Other rumored swaps around, done by people that are
Not on this or other boards.

> 2) He is asking 14k with BRAND new paint, and 14k does not mean thats the only offer he will consider

How much without paint ? Unfortunately "look" plays a Bigger priority in resale than performance. IMHO.

> 3)His is modified, 265 horsepower at all 4 wheels to be exact

Kostas dyno'd it. It Is a Fast car.

> 4)Celiman05 is not asking enough for his.
> Considering that only two are in the country, he needs to reconsider his price.

Celiman05, the CT owner; will get market value and what a buyer is willing to pay.
If he holds out he May get exaclty what he asks for. It is a waiting game....

Farely from Hollywood, Fl. let the car his sit for over a year; thru 2 Ebay auctions;
before Kostas bought it. I wish you better luck.

If they were in Really High demand, they would sell Immediately.
The actual Red ST205, out of NH; sold Quick when the price was Right. :-)
(to Colorado ???)

> But im sure Kevin would most likely take $13.5 cash if it was waved in his face..

I hope Kevin can take deal if it is offered, he may not be able to recoup All of his loss. frown.gif

>> 1)replace the clutch($432) and flywheel($330)

Cluthces seem to go pretty fast on these conversion. :-(

>> 2)we are currently in the process of relacing the engine.
>> The old one had bad compression on cyl 2 (cost of new engine is $2300 shipped, )

Replacing an engine is "maintenance". You can not 'Really' recoup a loss on that one.
You could sell it as a non-running project ? rolleyes.gif

Best of luck on the sale. I'll keep an eye on the thread.
