I have read somewhere that it isn't possible to change a american celica into an awd gtfour type of set up. Is that True? confused.gif I am new to the forum and not sure if this has allready been touched on earlier but that is one of my dreams to have. living in the states i doubt i will ever have the chance to ever own a real one. Does anyone know for sure?
thanks for the info

I wonder what makes it so expensive to do...



custom cutting and fabrication of the rear end.
sourcing rear diff, suspension, wheel hubs, brakes...etc..
buying a race fuel cell to replace the gas tank
etc...
etc..
etc..


it all adds up and its far from a bolt on type of thing

I'm not too sure. Seems like all you would need is a st205 front and rear clip. Then just bolt stuff in. There would be some custom fabbing. Might be able to use an st185. That would be all the more work though. I might just look at that, I know a guy with a st185. I'll jack both cars and see how different they are. If it's close, I'll start messuring things. I'll get back to this thread in few days.


none of it bolts up. thats the problem . its all totally different in the rear end.
