Possibly for sale: 1996 UK P reg GT4 ST205

2 previous owners
97,000 miles
FULL service history
Long MOT and TAX (It is dark and raining outside, so will update when I get a chance!)

I have religiously maintained the car with the best products, and only shell optimax fuel has been used.

I have a folder literally full with previous receipts etc, you would not believe the amount of history, I still have the original receipt when the first owner bought the car from Toyota for £30k+, and the autotrader cut-out of when the previous owner bought the car for £12k

The notorious fig8 suspension components have been changed, as has the cambelt etc, also, I fitted a VERY expensive ORC clutch and flywheel (Cost me nearly £1k!) recently, so nothing is required to be done!

It is one of the last UK GT4s ever produced, and is in absolutely immaculate condition.

Currently the car is running at 326 bhp and 272 lbft torque @1.1bar, with a dyno prove out, when I got the car tuned up at John noble motorsport in Chesterfield.

This is the level I was comfortable tuning the car up to without messing about with engine internals etc. It is extremely fast, handles like a dream (Even with standard suspension), and retains the bombproof Toyota reliability.

Spec:

Performance
Blitz Nur SpecR,
XS power Downpipe,
Blitz SUS intake,
Blitz DD BOV,
Blitz SBC BC,
HKS Camshafts & cam gears (Inlet 256, Exhaust 264),
Dastek Unichip
ORC 409D clutch & flywheel

Suspension
Cusco TypeOS front strut bar

Exterior
35% tint
Silver wiper blades
Eurou front lip
TRD sideskirts & rear corner extensions
17x8 Volk TE37 'special order colour' with RAYS centre caps
215/40/ZR17 toyo Proxies T1R (VERY VERY VERY expensive and sought after!)

Interior
Pioneer mp3
2 rokford fosgate subs
3 amps (kenwood and alpine)
new wires and speakers all round
power capacitor
Blitz MD boost gauge

I am still in two minds whether to sell my pride and joy, but summer is approaching and a Honda s2000 is looking very appealing, as is my ideal car, a Supra TT….

I would ideally sell the car with all the bits on, but it seems more financially viable to sell the car as standard as possible, thus recuperating some of the money I have spent!

If anyone is interested, give me a price with all the stuff on (with the knowledge that if I was to sell the stuff separate, I would get in the region of 3.5k in parts).

Or a price for the car, with a set of 17 inch multi-spoke alloys, in standard spec apart from the TRD/Eurou bodykit, tinted windows and ORC clutch/flywheel (The stuff not practical to take off/out!).

Remember, this is a UK car….so cheaper insurance, and higher residual values!

Thanks for reading, I know it was a bit of an essay, but LOADS of information to go through, and I have probably still missed loads out!

Sometimes I hate the fact that I live in the US.

Good luck on the sale, mate. Very nice ride.

thanks for the comments guys...still not that sure if I want to sell it, but a RWD convertable for the summer is very appealing!

i think you should try a celica convertable mod and keep it laugh.gif

cant really find nice celica's anymore... if you want the honda that bad, try n get it without selling the celica. you'll miss it too much if you do sell
