Mods that work on st204, Mods that work on st204 Options

Hi all, just recently picked up a 1996 Toyota celica gt I believe the "gold package" for a really good price... ive been looking around trying to figure out what kind of mods you can do to a st204 that are on other cars, such as exaust. I've seen little to no full exaust's for the st204 but there are plenty for the st205 (gt-four). Will a gt four exaust bolt up to the factory headers? I really want to start doing mods to my car but just finding them is my issue. If there's a list of thing's that are compatible with my car please link them! Thank you!

Coilovers, end links, sway bars, brake caliper, stainless braided lines, upgrade rotor&brake pads, and 5x114.3 conversion, ebay header, injen carb legal intake or weaponR intake. Can't forget the most important thing, good wheels and sticky tires. <-----these are all bolt on upgrade options. More info can be found on google or search the forums.

Other than the stuff mentioned above is custom work. Like engine swap, exhaust, widebody, gt4 conversion, etc. etc.

Speaking on terms of suspension, Megan racing still makes coilovers, and hell, the suspension set up is the same as for any ST model (ST204, 205, 202 etc), even GT-4 stuff. For the convertible model of the t20s it's all still in the same place, just behind the convertible top's holding bay. I'm currently running Megans in my 97 convertible, but BC and Fortune make new ones, as well as Tein i believe. Really check places like Ebay as well for second-hand ones. They are around, hope is not too lost yet lol.

With exhaust, there are plenty of videos on youtube of the different sounds different mods can make. Upgrading to a 3" pipe from the cat back does a bit of work, but I know jack about how that affects power. Cat delete if you can, even resonator may help.

With tires and handling related things, I mean these cars as much as it sucks to say really suck when slammed or dropped at all. I was at about 2 or 2.5" above my wheels at stock height, and with the megan coils in, i got down to 1.5", but handling suffered horribly, so hard to turn it felt like power steering just took a back seat for a bit, and I had wheel scrub on my 205/15s, inside the wheel well AND on my fender. PLUS! Speed bumps were the death of me and even my cat suffered a bit too. Mainly the main support beam but still. I'm considering going rally aes with my car, even raising it up past stock, cutting into the fenders and adding flares, and running 215s, maybe even 225s on larger rims however. I'm just trying to get the best handling out of the car, really especially if you are going to use it for toge runs, or autocross, hell even track, it's something to keep in mind, no matter how JDM stance-y you want to look, it'll suffer.
