Maybe this video was already posted, maybe not. I have noticed that some videos that have been posted are things I have seen a long time ago, and some are very new to me although they are old for some of you. So for this, I wanted to share this video. It has got me GT4 Crazy! How much do I love my celica? I would marry this things if I could. I would DP this car with Ron Jeremy giving him the high five in the tail pipe on video, making myself out to be a fool in front of the world. I have a new love this Valentine's Day. Her name is Celica. (um, just kidding about that other stuff, but really I am loving my car more and more. Enough to sell one of my kidneys on the black market for a shot at AWD conversion)

Personally, with all the fabrication and headache the awd drive would take, I'd rather just import the real thing and keep my american regular for side projects/learning/tinkering....... after all the parts, hours(or should I say months lol) of labor(whether you do it yourself or with someone else), frustration and tweaking, you'd end up spending more money on this project than you would getting a gt4 imported I would think(unless you got some good connections).... but hey if it's worth it to you then more power to ya and right on, just do lots n lots of research on the tasks at hand with that project..... just my input on the situation

Yeah, I wanted to make my Celica AWD, and after coming on here and asking about it, it would be much easier, and cheaper Just to Import the AWD from Japan, Australia, or Europe. you can Find GT4's in England for about 5K that sound to be in great shape. it'd probably cost that much to ship so 10K for a GT4 is still a Steal. I think During my Trip to Japan I'm going to try and find one to Import. my Teaching Job is going to pay for it. really, its the second reason I'm Trying for the job lol. oh, and if you don't have the money, but want the Power? Buy a 3rd gen 3SGTE. front wheel Drive Power house.

anyway, which ever road you take Good Luck.
