Im new to this site.
Im wondering if i can find any gt4 or all trac around where i live (Boston, Massachusetts) or will it be easier to just convert a normal celica to a gt4. If it is possible to convert Will it even work because i don't know if the st205 gt4 came wide body, so if i take everything from a gt4 (for example) will it fit a gt liftback of the same model year. Because then i can just do that find all the exterior pieces buy the motor, tranny etc. and just put it into a gt lift back. I do want it awd i want it exactly the same (mechanically) but if i cant have the extroir exact that's fine. Comment Please. |

but how is there any difference? whats say you bought a rolling shell? then piece by piece put the interior back in? or hell even if u cut it in half and put it back together in the states, how is the engineer gonna even tell who welded what where?? is someone at customs really gonna see a whole car and send it back because its not in pieces? if u can get around that by saying u need the whole car for parts.. and just say u need the shell in 1 piece?? It depends on where you live. A lot of states do inspections, and some of them are very thorough. Where I live, there are no inspections at all. I just drive a car and as long as I had the title to a USDM Celica, I would never get in trouble. I wouldn't even have to VIN swap. The insurance companies will never check, police will never check, and nobody else will ever have any desire to check. The big thing about GT4's being illegal in the US is that there were no crash tests done. So our government assumes that if you get in a wreck, it will look something like this: ![]() This post has been edited by richee3: Dec 25, 2010 - 7:47 PM -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates.
