Hey All,
The caldina wikipedia page got me thinking, particularly this part: "The GT-T came with the turbocharged 260 PS (191 kW; 256 hp) 4th generation 3S-GTE engine, and included an all-wheel drive system similar to the Toyota Celica GT-Four." I know the underside of the car would need to undergo a load of modifications, but do you think its worth a try? Yes. In short, I'm considering a 3s-gte AWD ST204. I know it can be done (and has been done.) Cheers |

My question to you is this: Why try to take a Caldina, tear it apart, and try to modify what you have to fit your Celica, when Toyota built an AWD Celica? Spend the money up front to get a Celica clip with the floor pan. It'll save a fortune in time, money, and work.
