Such an underrated JDM legend! Awesome!

[@GrassRootsGarage]

Agreed mate thanks for watching!

[@webweasel4401]

[@koffeeblack]

This was my high school dream car! 23 years later I still never owned one haha, great channel!

[@GrassRootsGarage]

Cheers mate ✌️

[@thegamingsaiyan637]

Yikes, its actually my first car, getting it for my birthday next month

[@SamirHossain1191]

Those OEM wheels look gorgeous. Beautiful GT4!

[@ToughGarage]

Oh hell yeah. The GT4, what a awesome design. That MR2 looks like a weapon also. Great video guys

[@bendeklerk1223]

the strut brace in the boot was made for high spec st202's btw

[@bastian9653]

thank you for keeping the original rims !

[@96st206]

Rear strut brace was also in the JDM 1998-1999 Celica SS-III

[@Serdar12379]

Hi mate I got a celica 1989 and converted it to generation 3 3SGTE turbocharged engine same color as your one fresh paint I will make it 4WD it’s all about money

[@jamessilby1814]

Love this channel an how you show all the 90s gold cars.... keep up the hard work

[@GrassRootsGarage]

Thanks James

[@motogte]

Well sorted mr2 that and skilled driver.

[@GrassRootsGarage]

100%

[@ad_fletch]

Totally - used to take my own (much slower) AW11 around Wakefield quite a bit, and that's damned fast. Wonder if he could get even closer to 1:00 with right tyres...

[@kurt1123]

Immaculately clean, such a beauty

[@L09IE]

Would love one of these one day

[@JohnSmith-rn8ui]

I own the drop top same colour in the red ,, awesome piece of kit ,,love her to bits

[@negativeindustrial]

It’s really not very different. I built mine from a 5S-FE car over a decade ago. You absolutely CAN make them AWD. The hardest bit is determining how you’re going to setup a fuel tank. Fuel cell was my solution.

[@rowanlewisuk]

I just bought a celica gt4 to rebuild on my channel. it looks identical to this. same kit. same roof spoiler. red spoiler risers. mad that is

[@negativeindustrial]

That bodykit is stock. Mine has it too.

[@shreda125hilux7]

I have a series 2 2001 IMPORT JDM TOYOTA CALDINA GTT ST215 here in Sydney Nsw with only 96,000kms. One of only about 200 here in Australia. Has the turbo 4th gen 3sgte. Similar parts and all wheel drive drive train as that gt4 and mr2 engines. Some differences like the turbo manifold etc.. love the sports wagon

[@FunkCakes]

So jealous... one of my dream cars but with so few of them around it will always be just a dream. Even the st185s are extinct or embedded in a telegraph pole somewhere. Toyota also had the race st205 car they used in the comps with 433kw with the same 3sgte until they replaced it with the 2JZ with the same power output. I also love the Cressida and I have one with a 1JZ but ran out of cash before I could get the engineers cert 😩. I been holding onto it for almost 8 years now and still can’t let it go

[@GrassRootsGarage]

Mate from experience (Ryan here) focus on your Cressida build first!!! Even though it’s been 8 years hold onto to it until it’s on the road driving. It’s the best feeling driving it for the first time completely finished!! Thanks for watching mate Ryan and Pete

[@Aladdin5cave]

Man, I love the cars you feature on your channel !

[@Bangkok.eye.automotive]

Celica was the best looking by far. I expect values to rise get them while you can !

[@coopsnz1]

Wrc editions start at $24000aud now , becoming popular

[@coopsnz1]

In Japan

[@julianalderson6996]

They were great old man had a celice do 100 n 9 seconds. That was quick. Had a caldina doesent look so good but wagon loved it. Cheers

[@davidhunt3808]

A very pretty looking car !

[@gemini3558]

Toyota, oh what a feeling!!! 😜👍🇦🇺

[@webweasel4401]

Shoutout to project Binky!

[@802Garage]

Uuuggghhh! I so wish we actually got these in the states. May have to do a replica someday.

[@mr2australia]

I think you are allowed to import the 1994 model now.

[@802Garage]

True! Probably very expensive though. I'm more interested in a real GC8 Impreza WRX since we never got those in the states either! I do love the MR2 as well, BTW. I have a 1985 myself, though it needs a lot of love.

Absolutely!

Leathers seats were available also to FWD-models.

We are so so pumped to one day hopefully fly to Japan. 🇯🇵

[@markbrook5355]

Actually love the rims1

[@supanatmutchika74]

🥰🥰

[@joelyjowell3]

Omg those wheels would look ugly on any other car but that celica can pull those wheels off

[@presidentskroob522]

I know the wheels are period correct, but they are minging! It's like drawing a moustache on Keira Knightly.

[@Panteraguy2007]

I'd fix the dreaded ariel problem and fit the 98 spec rear lights to match the 98 front projectors. Where did the carbon fibre door handles surrounds come from?

[@rowanlewisuk]

Dolomite sprint. Nice. Worth a lot here in UK. The celica I have seen for a £2500 here but nowhere near as rare here

[@coopsnz1]

How much are wrc editions , 1,700,000 yen in Japan

@@coopsnz1 There’s hardly any difference between the WRC version and the ST205 GT Four. But if you want to get technical.

[@julianalderson6996]

Is a caldina close n set up to gt4

[@mr2australia]

Not really. Caldina uses a later generation 3SGTE though has a completely different body and suspension setup.

[@tgracing5532]

Pete would you come to Qld to do a series?

[@GrassRootsGarage]

Planning a trip North soonish. Emails us [e-mail]

Those diffuser plate are custom or specifically made for the Celica?

[@mr2australia]

Custom. Available from endworks.

So is twin entry basically a twin scroll? If so this is the earliest car I have ever heard of with twin scroll turbo

[@mr2australia]

Yes. Earlier model GT4s had them too. Mitsubishi also use twin in their EVOs

[@_i-kr6eg]

Indeed climate control was in almost all Japanese spec vehicle's. My nissan S12 has climate control and its a 84 model car even got a spare climate control for it was a extremely very part to find .

[@Akhyl707]

Tyre size?

[@_i-kr6eg]

Also fit a 3sgte into a smaller fwd car not that hard .couple of years ago i almost bought a AE82 with 3sgte engine was a unfinished project car it was on gumtree

[@mr2australia]

That's true. I had a 3SGTE in a ST184 front wheel drive Celica, and it was a weapon! The torque steer was deadly!

[@kendelion]

Scotty?

[@tomastromeros21]

You must change the rims...

We Respect your opinion but man they are original with the car!!! 👌🏻

[@jespurrier]

Heathen. These rims look fresh again now. Most peeps regret getting rid of them and they are LIGHT.

I did change the rims. I took the aftermarket ones off, and put the proper ones back on. They look awesome!

You need to get better rims.
