OK so it wasn't on the Celi, but my Pops ran ova a deer the other day in the Sienna Van. Luckly the crash bar in the front saved the radiator and engine from total damage. The hood and headlight on the other hand wasn't too lucky.
For most of you guys that ditched ur bar for the looks of tat body kit. Hopefully you wont suffer too much damage or none in the near future. |

I was offered £130 delivered from a breakers, but the deal I'm now doing is with a celica-club member for £80, + petrol money to meet up and collect. How much are you paying for these parts in the US?
There's this guy in England who imports GT4s, drives them round for a few weeks then breaks them up for parts. Perhaps there is a market for this over there? |

There is always a market for GT4 parts here. I would say that you should check with Toyota World here in Houston and see if your guy can undercut the prices on popular parts by enough that even with shipping to NA it would still be cheaper and you could still make a profit. Might have yourself a good little business right here if you tried. --------------------  ENGINE: '93 RC 3S-GTE/WRC CT-20b [18-20PSI] PERF: TRD/HKS/ARP/NGK/MSD/ACT/Blitz/STRI/APEX'i/TwosRus/GReddy/Magnaflo/KOYO SUSP: Tein/Bilstein/SusTech/ INT: SS-III SEATS/Toyota Hyper Sports EXT: WRC/TRD/404 QUOTE (lagos @ Aug 25, 2010 - 10:13 AM)  Its a safety feature so that people like you don't end up killing themselves or everyone around them.

You have to remember though that for our beloved GT4`s are all getting old now.......occasionally another "not so good" GT4 has to give its life to enable our GT4`s to live on.....a worthy sacrifice IMO. |

Do any of you get upset by all the GT4 parts we buy up over here? I've always wondered that.
