History
Sold my 2000 RX7 and waited 8 months to find an old school Celica liftback in good condition.
Saw this coming before my import broker did, but was quick to show my interest in the first and only grade 4 Celica I have ever seen.
With 14,000 logged Kilometres!
It was above my budget at private car dealers but eventually hit the actions as the Japanese summer came into effect.
Was owned by the President of Japans Toyota Club who is now too old to enjoy the car.
Modifications
This is the GT model only released in Japan.
It's unique from the 1600 GT (TA27) in that it has a 2000cc engine and upgraded transmission.
It's unique from liftback Celicas you will see in Australia because of the taillights, GT badges, factory LSD, Toyota Fender mirrors, hood flutes, rain guards and twin cam engine from the factory.
Completely factory apart from the addition of mild, period correct 14" Watanabe wheels.
Future mods will be:
370mm Luisi Grifon steering wheel.
Front Endless sports brake pads.
AJPS Lowering springs
AJPS panhard rod to brace diff and prevent diff misalignment.
Weber Velocity stacks and filters.
Genuine Watanabe hubcaps.
