I'll be driving my vert to the Co meet, hopfully I can get around to painting it before then

Nice man. When I get a better job and more money im just gonna buy a front and rear clip off of ebay. Gt4 is soo sexy. Plus gotta give the wrx's some competition right? Hopefully I can find some time this weekend to install my speakers and amp. Also celicaST where did you get ur jdm tail lights and how much?

[trdproven]

JDM tails are easily bought off ebay. They are much cheaper than they used to be, some already in the 100's range. They used to be in the 200-300 range.

[SoDo]

Yeah i've already looked at ebay. Sellers on there want $160 + $75 for shipping. I'm just trying to find a better deal.

[lagos]

Cool project. Good luck.

[trdproven]

I saw a 139.99. Best keywords to use are st202 and st205 when searching.

EDIT: Are you doing the full Superstrut front end suspension swap too??

Thank You, They don't call me a Mad Scientist for nothing. I wish it came with the engine, I have the Superstrut but its missing both knuckles and calipers.
So if I can get ahold of those parts yes I will do the Superstrut.
Next is painting the engine bay World Rally Blue Pearl with tons of clear

if you havent already you need to swap over the top bumper mount from rad support of st205 .. it is raised

in the middle for 205 bumper and hood .. this might be dumb question but why didn't you just use st205

rad support ..?

i needed a rad support for my st205 and ended up finding a st205 empty clip and drove across country to

pick up just to have correct bumper mounting and i wanted orginal part to fix st205

Because I bought the st204 rad support and fixed the car before I ever thought of doing the st205 swap.
No big deal I can change just the top brace

So you are actually doing the awd conversion too? Btw nice project going on. I'd love to do a right hand drive conversion. but it seems pricey.

If i had $5,000 right now, It would be done in about 2 months . But since I just got laid off who knows when
It will be done. I have lots of time no money.
