Anyone got info/opinions on the toyota celica gt4 st205 wrc model

Hi,
Just wondering if anyone has anything to say about the gt4 celica st205. My Dad is thinking about getting a wrc model, putting decals on etc for car shows so thought i might post on here to see what you lot think!
He hasnt even been in one, is a total toyota man, and has a mr2 mk1 in insane condition. But, i think after being in my pulsar he wants more under the right foot! So there is a wrc version gt4 that Toyota made (2500 built). I dont even know anyone that has one so cant get him out in a test drive.

anyway, enough banging on
cheers

My mates old one

ah man thats lovely. Thats exactly what he wants!!

I went to a celica rr day up newcastle good bunch of lads and mentioned there forum a lot. Dont know how far there members span but if its out like the lads i met anyone of them would take your dad out or tell him about them

nice ok, do you know exactly what forum it was?

No but could find out probably be monday now. But very good lads were the sort of people just loved cars in general i was on about my R bit banter between us but compaired to others i have met a good bunch

These guys know their stuff

great thanks, will check them out :-)

I had a st205 wrc, It was a fantastic motor. Pulled hard further up the gears, doesn't have punch low down like the pulsar has.

Engine and boxes are excellent, had the same power plant in my mr2 turbo.

Fig of 8 suspension setup needs replaced every 60k and is around £500

I will own an other as they look amazing especially in White. I actually looked to buy an other last year for my girlfriend but picked up a integra dc5 instead.

You also have ccuk I believe it was just a generic Celica owners club, I used to have have gen 4 182 and they are really good cars and is very similar inside to a supra with quite a relaxed low down seating position
