You're project looks to be coming along great. Congratulations on making it this far. I hope the rest of the build goes as smoothly.
If you don't mind I've got a few questions for you. Which rear end did you decide to use? Axles? Which Knuckle/hub/bearing combonation? Strut setup? Swaybar? Brake discs and calipers/caliper mounting brackets? The reason I asked is because that doesn't look like the 6th gen GT4's super strut setup. I assume it's from an ST185 alltrac but I really hate to guess. --------------------  Project ST204.5 99.88946% complete... |

I assume it's from an ST185 alltrac but I really hate to guess. well when i bought the front clip, they sent me everything. the rear end, axles, hubs, struts, sway bar, and brakes. everything came out of a 6gc (i believe). i got such a sweet deal on it, i almost got a whole damn car. |

Yeah, I found out after I posted that the ST205 superstrut rear struts don't differ much in appearance compared to the Macpherson struts in the ST204. It's only the fronts that are drasticly different.
BTW, How are things progressing? -------------------- Project ST204.5 99.88946% complete... |

well if you take over the world then you won't need either of them cause you could just force toyota into producing you the only 06' celica GT4
or for that matter combine ferrari, toyota and subaru and make a supra GT4 |
