I need help please i've just got my first car which is a 6Gen celica GT, i wanted a GT Four but obviously the insurance companies wouldnt touch me. Is there any GT Four exterior parts that will fit without cutting my car up? And is there any websites that do these parts and i want a big bore exhaust any ideas where to get one and how do i fit it?

Thanks

Bumper, Hood, Turbo, AWD, and a 3sge 6th gen will make a real GT4. biggrin.gif

modding however i believe you need only buy the hood and the bumper smile.gif also, to the best of my knowledge they do bolt right up. (but i'm not doing a GT4 conversion so what would i know laugh.gif ) Even if they dont, you'd modify the bumper to fit, not your frame to hold the bumper rolleyes.gif so it wouldnt be that big of a deal. Happy modding!

Welcome mate.

As above you can fit the Gt-Four Bumper and hood, you can get them from Toyota, some part numbers here:

http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=1481

But it will cost you a fortune.

Best looking out for 2nd hand ones, they come up on www.GT4OC.net


You're looking at about £600 for the lot 2nd hand.


The latch is the bonnet catch in UK talk wink.gif

a latch is the thing that holds the hood into the "closed" or "locked" position.

I know, just informing him that there's lots of info already here to help ou.

For the conversion you'll need..

-gt4 hood
-gt4 front bumper
-gt4 hood latch
-gt4 crash bar

That's all I know of that you should need for the front end conversion. Also you can go further and get the rear spoiler and raiser blocks for a more authentic GT-4 look.
