1996 Celica ST205

[johnyboy1976]

Well i thought id add my car on here.
Its a 1996 celica GT4 st205 and i bought it in july 09.
Its a very rare grey coloured car and had 60'000miles on when i bought her.
Both previous owners in UK were GT4OC members and the car has had no expense spared on her.
When i agreed to buy the last owner still went ahead and fitted a new cam belt and all superstrut suspension components.
Only thing i didnt like when i bought car was the horrendous genuine Veilside bodykit (recipts for paint , fit & supply from Nemesis for £5K!!!!) but luckily had all oem bumpers and skirts in his loft.
The car came with the optional recaro interior , Blitz nur spec exhaust , aussie de cat , Blitz sus induction kit and a Blitz EBC.
I did do a track day at silverstone after i had fitted Tein coilovers & EDFC , whiteline rear ARB and alloy drop links and new wheels with R888's on - car was awesome.
However i then took car off road as deployed to afghan a few weeks later
However not moved since as i have amassed a few bits for her that will all be fitted in new year

That's a big spec. Looking forward to the photos!

[johnyboy1976]

[johnyboy1976]

Most of kit being fitted soon so more pics to come

Ace - not seen one in that colour ever.
Lovely alloys, works a treat.
No stupid boost gauges that look horrid to be seen either

What is it running (bhp) roughly?

[johnyboy1976]

At moment is virtually stock other than mods it had when bought - ebc ,exhaust and has RR plot for 301bhp
However once i have the engine built im looking for 500ish
No silly gauges - did have defi BF but sold unused as im hoping to buy a Motec dash

[johnyboy1976]

some of the pics show my car with half a spoiler and knackered hatch.
Thats because the spoiler was bonded on so when i tried to remove it wouldnt budge so i smashed it off
But i have this to go on

[DaGuv]

what bhp?

[magpie215]

Hey JB...made it over here then :-)

[johnyboy1976]

see couple of posts back for Bhp
Yeah John ive arrived

[BriC175]

Very nice! Do like these cars...

[johnyboy1976]

Long time since i updated - well the car is not finished :lol:
However its now at the engine builders so the end is near

[johnyboy1976]

Some pics of the now finished bodywork and cf kit.

[ManOpener]

Great looking piece of kit. Should shift, too!

[magpie215]

Looking good John

[Riknos]

Nice. I miss my ST205

Not a fan of the bodykits though; standard body with the high rise spoiler looks best in my opinion.

In white

[MrMagoo]

Lovely car

[BriC175]

Like the car, not really a fan of the wheels though!

[BDR529]

Your Celica looks great.

[manphibian]

The perfect celica, that.

Good work bringing back the OEM

Looks vaguely familiar, have you been on 6GC.net? I'm still on there from back in my Celica days The yanks would cream themselves over that
