Solid shots, looks like there was a good turnout.
How is it that theres a legal Gt-four in the states, that is able to be driven on the streets?! Are those XXR 530's 19's ?! -------------------- -Protection mode, For when your amp tries to blow its load. 1995 Toyota Celica GTS - Daily Driver 1999 Chevy Cavalier - Winter Beater 1994 Honda Civic CX Hatchback - Dead My Celica! |

It's quite a machine. -------------------- 2000 GT-S 6 SPD... SOLD! |

I don't know much about st205's in the states (Im in Canada) but I thought the only way was to Vin Swap (Illegal) or have it registered as a track car, not for street use. -------------------- -Protection mode, For when your amp tries to blow its load. 1995 Toyota Celica GTS - Daily Driver 1999 Chevy Cavalier - Winter Beater 1994 Honda Civic CX Hatchback - Dead My Celica! |

I'm not sure how they did it originally. He wasn't the person to originally import it.

I'd suggest buying a new set of housings and doing those just so you have the old set as spare in case something goes wrong or you sell the car and need to swap back. Those projectors are capable of 55W but that shortens bulb life a lot...but also more than doubles the brightness! -------------------- |

The camera did most of the work.
 Are you on Facebook? I uploaded several more pictures of your BRZ there. If not, I can email you the full size files.I think I fixed my overboost issue. I suspected the second wastegate was seized up but I followed other leads first. Just grabbed the actuator arm and it was a little stiff at first. Wiggled it a few times and it moves much smoother now. Put a little compressed air to it and it seemed to work just fine. A couple of highway pulls should let me know. Then, next time I'm up there in Mexico, you guys will get the full 450 whp 2JZ experience. -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates.

QUOTE (enderswift @ Sep 20, 2015 - 11:03 PM) I'm glad I made it out to this meet , its always great seeing other celica enthusiasts AGREED! that wheel gap on the gt four is SEXY af! I was also privileged enough to sit in a Supra and be in the presence of a GT4, couldn't ask for more than that. Already looking forward to a spring meet!  This has to be one of my favorite photos of a celica ever |

That's the GT4 lookalike, the GT4 didn't have the risers on the spoiler.
