I just bought a 95 celica GT liftback for the sole purpose of rally racing. I'm building it to meet Rally America and NASA specs.
I'm scrolling through reading as much as I can about the car, but any opinions on weak areas on this car would be appreciated; as in stresses a rally car might really effect. I will be welding as many seems as I can find, at minimum 6 point cage, but i'll probably make it 8 as i plan on going through the firewall to the front strut towers. Basically just reinforcing anything I can. My goal is to compete in blackriver stages next september.

your trans will blow in the middle of first race, the transfer cage of these trans is deising to split power 50 /50 front / rear, with no resistance on the rear it'll put extra stress on the transfer cage overheating it till it goes Boom !, if you really wanna stay FWD for now, your best bet is to use the stock gt trans ( S54 ) or source an MR2 turbo LSD trans for the very best FWD combo.
