GT-Four Superstrut Suspension and Brake Conversion Questions.. Options

[black93hardtop]

I have read through tons of info about the differences between the standard McPherson and Superstrut Suspension systems but there is not a complete explination about doing the actual conversion (not that I found anyways).

I have a complete GT-Four Clip so I have the entire system BUT the clip is RHD. Im converting it over to a ST204 LHD... Do I need to use the GT-Four Rack and Pinion? If so its RHD... it wont work, correct.. What am I missing here..

Also, I am not doing any drivetrain swaps as of right now. I want the car on the road and want to tackle this one step at a time. Will the ST205 Axles work with the S54 Trans? Or will the standard axles in the car fit into the ST205 Hubs? Custom??

I would like to tackle this asap asuming Im not in over my head. I was going to just swap the entire subframe suspension, brakes... all in one shot. Let me know if Im crazy or this is more complex than Im thinking.


Thanks,
Brian




Oh, before anybody tells me how crappy the Superstrut system is and Im crazy for converting.... I know, I just want it...

So how diff would the gt rack b from the st is there any place u can get dimensions and all? Because when i was faced with the conversion i was a lil concerned but as i bolted things they all fell into place.
being a perfectionist might prevent you from doin alot of things
if it didnt function properly i would have reverted to the old setup wen i say it works its not a matter of it "working" its more like its identical in the bolt areas amd dimensions to that of a non gt4 celica as far a i can tell my car turns the same feels the same and runs just about the same for.the obvious reason that that suspension is diff so i would say it runs better i would compare this conversion to swapin the suspension from an st to your gt like i said as far as i can tell in the us model unless u got the premium suspension package or w.e it was called everything should be interchangeable between st and gt which would make what we did to our st similar to a gt


On a side note there nothing to it but to do it once you gettem both out if u havent do all ur messuring but just rest asure that it works so do that. Write up an lets get more superstruts so that it becomes the next big thing to swap lol f u need anythin else man let me know n dont get discouraged if you were closer id show.u personally what i did
