Your best bet is probably a toyota dealers, failing that you could always try to contact Fensport in the UK and see if they will send you one over, if not there are a few places in Japan that will happily send you a gt4 Hood and nose cone.

well .. regardless of me and wantabe88 being only st205 owners in US on this board it is the handling with 4wd thats tops for me..
with my JDM blizzacks my car is glued to snow covered roads .. i drove 60 mph and then in fwd celica i could only go 30 tops and feel safe .. i don't drive crazy just was testing otut snow tires for grip .. one step down from studded .. i think it is not just one certain thing but a combo of all the things we like about GT4 that makes it so great ..

FORGMANN, I had no idea that you had an ST205 in the states. Do you have any pictures or specs of your car? Your info doesnt really say where your from or anything about your car, so I'm just curious.

QUOTE(Watanbe88 @ Feb 24, 2005 - 8:56 AM) Also not that at around 3100lbs I wouldn't call the gt4 a heavy car. And I have to agree, the car can take on anyone, if not because of power then because of handeling. I am running all-season radials and I was able to keep up w/ other cars on slicks and HP Summer Tires at an AutoX [right][snapback]249700[/snapback][/right] Is that the GT-Four from ebay last year? -------------------- Project ST204.5 99.88946% complete... |

It's the allround package of the GT4 that does it for me. 4WD, good driving position, turbo, looks...... You can drive like 'Miss Daisy around town all day & not many people will know what it is you're driving. Then get it out onto the country B-roads & You'll get from A to B in no time at all. It's not common like your Scoobies & Evo's. they're 10 a penny.
Another point is that Toyota won't be making another road going rally car like this again for a very, very long time. You're buying a part of rallying history. I love it . It's a shame it was never imported into the States so you could have as much fun as I do. Rich -------------------- |
