Of course, if you do, then crack on

iv had it a few weekends in the past thats why i want it so bad

yeh my lude is quick i beat most things but i raced him a few times its not even close man his 1/4 mile is 13.1 area

he gets 34 mpg on long runs his consumption is better than the h22

Loved it to drive but a bit heavy and as standard not enough power (but easily improved).
So juicy though......get better mileage from my gtr. Known for naturally overfuelling was lucky to get 20mpg

white with castrol rally livery YES anything else doesnt really do it for me.
had the poster on the wall when i was a teenager when these were rallying.

Mate had one a while back and must say i wasnt overwhelmed, Check the figure8s have been done as i believe you can only get them from toyota and there pricey

If they weren't soo bloody expensive to run I'd have one in a heart beat.

A mate of mine had a ST205 (the big fat one) and it went like something off something else (at work no swearing please).

Just a shame they're so ugly.

That is one of the best front ends I've seen on a GT4, but only because it looks mean

There's a same shaped Celica right near me (Don't know what spec it is) but it has rusted arches much worse than any prelude's I've ever seen! But the rest of the car looks mint. They quite literally look like someone has got a butter knife and smeared a generous helping of sticky-rust right around the arches and then baked them on gas mark 7 for 2 hours just so they bubble up lovely.

... Just saying you might want to check them out and keep an eye on them

Yeh iv seen celicas with rust problems before but with it bein an import and dry stored for long times it's totally rust free
