GT4 Action - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #14063 32 posts Started by NYCelica
First time i've actually seen a GT4 in action. That guy was driving like a pussy though, I wanted to see some flat out acceleration. **** the cliffs man, he can sacrifice himself for the sake of our viewing pleasure.
Great, another idiot who removes his airbag for the sake of a "sport" wheel. Plus, I dont appreciate spending the entire video at a 45 degree angle- I dont give a **** what he looks like.
is that GT4 origianally left hand drive or did he just swap that?

I agree, sport wheels are uber lame.
lhd GT4s aren't THAT rare- but all the ones we import and get clips from are from rhd countries, it's that simple.
Nice find NYCelica. Makes a guy want a 3sgte.

QUOTE(lagos @ Jul 10, 2006 - 1:55 PM) [snapback]454118[/snapback]i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this.
makes me want to finish my swap sooner.

makes me want to see some video from outside the car, instead of just hearing the revs of the engine and looking from the angle of a passed out camera man
Hey guys this is a GT4 from Greece!
This waqs 1.8L and he did the swap and also the AWD swap!!!!
The car is running with FULL rebuilt internals(HKS camshafts,Eagle Rods,pistons,Power FC,Greddy Turbo,FMIC,etc).
The car is 550HP @1.7bar and at the past broke 2 times,one time was the internals and the other was a differential problem.
This car is running low 11.
Now the car i know that is running very healthy and its really a BEAST at Greece Drag Races:)
Barbaris is the name of the guy.
get him to join

Maybe he tripped an airbag sensor doing dash mods and had to replace the wheel >biggrin.gif>

Yeah, the exterior car shots are pretty good, but I fell off my chair trying to watch the interior shots.
How hard is it to mount an extra two cameras on the dash and hood? Not at all!

Considering there was traffic on the road, I'm glad the guy didn't drive hard core. Punching it and yanking the wheel is a pretty cheap way to get drift.

I dont know guys..... But i would love to see how you could handle that power well.... That car was losing traction on every corner then he flored it (AWD losing traction.. Hmmm ) So i think its not that bad... But i could done better with my ST (atleas i could fly all those corners >biggrin.gif> )

the angle kinda made my neck hurts but as for him driving as a pussy i don't think so.. if you look close you can tell everytime he reved up and shifted the car would start to slide. as for the steering wheeel.. don't knock the guy with out knowing.. there could a 100 reasons why he doesn't have the air bags.. someone did mention that it was and ST converted to a GT-4.. well i hope so cause then that would shut up a lot of people on this site.. mac out ..

It perplexes me why people do swaps when they can get the real thing. Ill be m aking some videos on august 14th of the GT4 owners club around a race track in the UK. the day is called the supercar rallyday and can be seen at www.rallyday.com

I used to have WRX Version 4:) Great Suspension but i was running factory boost and con rod failed after 2 months >biggrin.gif> Hahaha So i moved to my current car which is fantastic:)
In my family we have 2 Celicas (GT4,3SGE SS2) and we are very lucky having them:)
Its nice for you to have the Celica in the Family,even if they did left any parking for your WRX >biggrin.gif> >biggrin.gif> >biggrin.gif>
RE the air bag comment
- There are Celis without airbags. My 95 Curren doesn't have one.
- if they were deployed for some reason, the cost of repairing it could be very high.

In general, having a GT4 myself i think that the car is amazing. its 550bhp and it shows. in my stock GT4 the only way to drift is to accelerate hard in first, turning the wheel and the road to be slippery/wet. This guy is driftng in second.

I would prefer the interior piece not to be on 45 d angle and some more exterior coverage.
i can drift in 2nd with 304bhp, no biggie
