You do not know how happy I am seeing your video. I have seen internet articles about your conversion and I am glad someone decided to do a RWD conversion on the celica. The celica does not have a lot of audience for modification, tuners, and an aftermarket so this video really gets me happy for the celica community. Thank you for explaining how you did this conversion so more people can think of trying this.

Incredible work! I’ve always dreamt of converting my own Celica to rear wheel drive and it’s nice to see that while it is achievable, it takes a ton of work. Thank you!

Unbelievable. You have done what most people only dream of doing. I had a big smile on my face when I saw the Celica drifting! I hope it gives you many more years of continued joy. From one proud celica owner to another :)

Something about this body style of Celica just looks perfect while drifting. It's unfortunate that it got turned into a FWD only model for the last generation. Still a good car though. In my opinion, you made the Celica perfect. Awesome work.

It's cool seeing how a FWD front suspension behaves in a RWD car while drifting.
That's so cool! What does it feel like to drive it? Are there any major differences in normal driving conditions that you've noticed when you switched it from FWD to RWD?
@tundora2 жыл бұрын
If you just drive normally, nothing will change. Drifting is a bit quirky and requires some getting used to.
I can not believe the interior went back in, that’s insane!

How the Celica wanted to be from the factory. Very nice. I have a plan for doing something similar except with a LS 5.3L, a tremic tkx, and 4 link 9in out back so, imagine this but with over twice the power and almost 3 times the torque. I'm looking more at a fast street car and occasionally drag racing. And maybe to troll the import guys a little.
