Celica GT4

[liamsp]

Owned the car for about a year & a half now. Been pretty reliable couple of little niggles when I first got it which my brother luckily came to the rescue for me. But overall been a great car had it on the rollers when I first got it made 265@flywheel hopefully its nearer 280-300 region now with a few extra bits engine mods so far are-

Apexi air filter
Blitz Nur spec exhaust
Aussie de cat downpipe
SSQV BOV
Forge Actuator
Uprated fuel pump
ACT uprated clutch
short shift kit
EBC set between 1-1.1 bar of boost

Plans for the future are to get a couple of bodywork bits tidied up & possibly a piggyback ecu.

Love these. Looks the part in black with the white wheels.

That shape Celica looks a lot better than the next version. A fine rally car in it's day.

Lovely car. As has been said, much better looking than the modern version in my opinion.

I still can't look at these without thinking back to my childhood and playing Sega Rally in the arcades.

Looks fantastic. Not seen one in a while now

[F1GTRUeno]

Such a good looking car.

From an era of good looking rally specials.

Love the GT4, hopefully be my next car, had to settle for the SSII this time.

Lovely car dude! Any engine bay shots?

[Rochester TVR]

Do you drive out of Croydon each morning?

[Egg Chaser]

Always loved these since my Uncle had one when I was a kid, same colour as yours too. They looked great in the Castol rally livery too

[liamsp]

Will put up engine bay shot soon all pretty standard under there really. I commute along the A25 so its not me coming out of Croydon. Thanks for the possitve comments.

[liamsp]

Not a very clear pic but only one ive got atm

[RobCrezz]

Very nice.

You should replace the charge cooler (sell to an MR2 turbo owner) and get a big FMIC in there

From my understanding unless your running high power (500bhp+) there is little point ditching the chargecooler. Its a very good setup, and in most cases replacing it will raise temps.

I have always wondered what is the little intake for on the bonnet?

On the WRC cars they found that the cambelt got rather hot and was likely to snap/have problems etc unless it was cooled, hence one "cannon port" cooling vent although that I know of its blocked off so does nothing on the road car but for homologation reasons it stayed on the car.
