I'll admit, I remember seeing pictures of the GT4 front going on. At the time, I remember thinking it was just another 5S powered Celica with a GT4 front end- looks good, but really isn't anything special on 6gc. Then I saw the rear lip and did not like it, though I respected your abilities with the body work. Then you painted it white, made me eat my words, and now it's one of my favorite cars. I'm constantly using it as an example. It deserves the 3S you're putting into it and I hope to see your sig reflecting Manny's, Dustin's, Jim's, and several others with dyno results and 330 whp+. With these cars getting older every day, fewer members are willing to spend the money to build their Celicas, and threads like this are being forgotten. I'm looking forward to this thread and where you go with the car
