Hey! I know I haven't been active on here for a while mainly cuz I can't/don't drive my celi anymore but thought I would post this on here.
http://www.utahhondas.net/index.php/topic,....html#msg110377 Someone local to me recently picked up a gt4!!! I'm gonna try to talk to him to see what he had to go through to do it. wish me luck!!  enjoy!  QUOTE Not a ton of pics, but my buddy just finished his Celica GT4 so I took a couple of pics of it today. We are going to take a few more this weekend.      Yes that's a fully built and restored Hachi. His thread if you're interested.  http://www.utahhondas.net/index.php/topic,6367.0.html --------------------  Call me a traitor! See if I care. ;) |

well since i took the pictures i ll post some about it! haha the color is the gunmetal on the ISF I believe. Not sure on the name of the paint code. He bought the GT4 in Japan, had it cut in half and sent over. While here he purchased a USDM Shell and totally stripped it. Then he changed out the rear floor pan and moved everything over. In essence its a GT4 with us vins. The only usdm parts are the shell and some of the mounting parts on the rear. Once he joins officially on the site im sure he will make a build thread and give everyone more info!
