ok before i get flamed THIS HAS BEEN DONE...BUT NOT WITH A GT4...And is kinda expensive unless you can get to a country that has gt4s...My friends buddy lee was stationed over in japan..he bought a 96 STI and removed the engine...shipped it to america then shipped the fame out and registered it as a "kit car" and it is now sittin in his drive way in michagain..complete JDM 96 Subaru Impreza STI...If he could have done this with an STI we could do the same thing with the GT4's. Simple ship the engine and frame out in to seperate crates! Now there im sure there are other issues involving this but this is what i heard...im almost positve there is red tap through out this entire process but he got the car to america and is drive it legally!! Of course you would have to know someone in japan, the uk..etc to get the car or you could go there yourself...but if it works with this impreza then it more then likey can work with the gt4's

i might be wrong but isn't there a LHD ST205? like somewhere in europe or something?
my thinking is that, wouldn't it be easier to hide/keep secret of the car since its LHD and like you can put ST204/AT200 vin # on? for emissions, don't you just have to have all the parts nessasary and you'll pass emissions? if the car filters the gas clean? i don't know. RHD celica would be awesome and original but i think it would be a hassel just to register it and make it legal. sorry if i'm talking non sense. -------------------- PROJECT 6TH GEN
