Celica Gt4 or Celica Gt4 Conversion? Options

[pentathlete5]

Im new to this site.
Im wondering if i can find any gt4 or all trac around where i live (Boston, Massachusetts) or will it be easier to just convert a normal celica to a gt4.
If it is possible to convert Will it even work because i don't know if the st205 gt4 came wide body, so if i take everything from a gt4 (for example) will it fit a gt liftback of the same model year. Because then i can just do that find all the exterior pieces buy the motor, tranny etc. and just put it into a gt lift back. I do want it awd i want it exactly the same (mechanically) but if i cant have the extroir exact that's fine.






Comment Please.

Oh well, Any way you look at it, you have to be nuts about the celica to own a gt4. the upkeep is way too expensive even though the parts are readily available where i live...

imagine not having the parts available in your country... for example..

your local bearing shop may produce the right size wheel bearings for a st205 gt4 but wont have the corrosponding part number reference

the ball joints in the superstrut arms cant be pressed out and replaced, every time you have to replace the whole arm, you'll have to import the arms from toyota japan

wheel bearings and superstrut arms tend to last about 80,000 miles

thats just 2 examples, theres alot more things than that.
