Celica GT/GT-Four questions Options

[Random_Stranger]

I have no one else to ask who may or may not know this and I am curious....


Ok here it goes. I have seen a few AWD cars turn into RWD cars, or more power put into the rear than the front. How is this done and is it possible for people to do this to the AWD GT-Four? Secondly, I was curious, and this goes for you all out there who have swapped, with some cars that have a swapped engine, I have been told that the gauges need to be changed over too, if the car is capable of reaching higher rpms. So when you swap from a 5sfe to a 3sgte, do you have to change your gauges? And if not then, what about when you stroke the engine to 2.2L? Because I am not sure on the conversion, but I think the GT-Fours redline a bit past where a GT would normally redline, and yet the Km/H seem either equal or less to a stock US GT Celica on max mph on the gauge. Any knowledge to be shed would be appreciated.

dont waste your time... 5sgte all the way!! technically you can pull the front axles on a gt4 but that just sounds like a terrible idea... i have a 3sgte swap... i redline at 7200 with my 2nd gen... the needle just goes into the red... i know where my shift point is so you just think of the red as being at 7200... theres no reason to swap gauges... GT gauges go up to 150mph and my car maxes at 186mph...
