Thought you guys might like to see my 2nd GT4. I traded my red 94 model with this one. It appears almost identical to my other 97 model, but you will notice the wheels are a different colour.
As my new daily driver, I'm happy to say it drives as good as it looks, only 1 previous owner in NZ and he owned a garage/workshop so the car has been well maintained mechanically. He sold it because he had 4 sports cars and decided that was 1 too many. This is definately going to keep me rolling on a GT4 for years to come

That's a great color on a beautiful '4. You have a knack for finding the cleanest cars.

Thanks man, yeah, I really keep my eyes out and only go for the good ones with a solid history, even if it means paying a bit more. I will be modding this one with a WRC style spoiler; putting in a better head-unit and that's about it. Pretty much perfect as it is. |

Yep, the facelift spoiler will be going. I already have a set of riser blocks and a wing off a 94 ST202. However it will be a few months before I get the work done as I have a trip to Bali planned in March and need save my money for that!

I actually kind of dig the spoiler on the '4. I don't like it on a FWD Celica with a GT4 front end but on the real thing, I like it. It's a change from the usual GT4 or TRD wings.

I agree as well. those were my first thought always until I ended up with a beams and gtfour replica frond end and spoiler. it gets me more attention this way. People always ask is that a gt4 or is that an alltrac?? -------------------- Group buy to replicate Narrow E series transaxle parts

the 3 post wing looks nice and modern, only reason why I swapped to a TRD wing, was I manage to find one very cheap local and that it is TRD
 Yeah thats the one from down south/Dunedin. -------------------- |

just a few more pics to show both of the cars side by side. To be honest I'm kind of wavering about whether to modify the spoiler or not. The facelift spoiler is growing on me. It is definately more conservative and less likely to attract attention, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. There's also a certain novelty factor in having two cars that look almost identical. My neighbour was like "WTF?!?"
