I originaly started a GTFour RHD conversion almost 4 years ago. Back then it was a rare to see someone try this conversion. Recently I decided to come back for over 2 years of not being on. I see all kinds of converted cars. This got me thinking, I have three celicas a 94 Liftback that i did the GTFour RHD conversion, a 95 Coupe GT and a 96 Convertible GT.
What if I did a GTFour RHD conversion on all three cars? Have you ever seen a GTFour Coupe or a GTFour Convertible? -------------------- 1996 Toyota Celica Convertible GT (My 1st Celi,Owned since 2002)

Heys, I have a silly question but anyways. If I bought a GTfour hood to replace my stock Celica SX 1995 hood. Would the GTfour hood fit onto my car if I dont have the GTfour fromt bumpers? Do you reckon the GTfour hood mixes well with ssiii splitters?

It will fit but you'll have a gab in the front because the middle the hood sets higher than bumper an you will ned a gt4 hood latch
Imo it would look good together This post has been edited by kurt95gt: Jan 11, 2012 - 12:21 AM -------------------- 95 gt coupe, v6 swap weekend toy

itll bolt on. you DONT have to extend the latch w/ a regular bumper as the gap gives you enough room to release it still

i've been tossing the idea around to do the gt4 conversion on my current coupe but the fenders are starting to rust.
One question i have. Since your cutting the spare tire area out anyways the coupe should be stiffer than doing it on a hatch, since the rear window and trunk area with the extra bracing? -------------------- 2nd Gen 3s-gte.... It lives!
