there are a few people who have done this, not just one.

there's lots of custom work, measuring, PRECISION involved in such a thing. you've gotta keep the frame straight, cut out the rear, weld in new floor pan, use a custom fuel cell, etc...

by the time you're done with it, you may as well have bought an eclipse GSX, an older impreza, or something that came with AWD stock. one member here who had done the AWD swap complained that the thing constantly pulled to the left at high speeds - doesn't sound too safe to me.


neverstop complained about unstable but never proved he did it...

although precision isn't exactly rocket science it is a bitch and a half to take on such a project

You want power but have no money. That's a problem.

Cheap. Reliable. Fast. Pick two.

@ 94 ST Hatchback
@ From Bronx, New York
@ Celiman05 sold it. I remeber reading a thread when he explained that he had a choice betwwen keeping the
@ Celica or keeping his Supra and of course, he kept his Supra instead.

There are at Least 2 conversions driving around now in the US.
(A few actual ST205's as well. )

There was a Black conversion done in Hollywood, FL by an parts importer, Farley.
It was for sale on Ebay. Kostas bought it unseen and shipped it to CO.

~Kostas wanted $$ for an investment locally, he could keep One Fast toy.
The Supra won.
