Hey guys been offered this tonite at really good price for the amount of work gone into it last year or so ...

Its a toyota celica gt4 st205 wrc my mate that owns is very particular about his cars and looks after them regardless of cost . Two questions really

1. Anyone had an experiences with one ?
2. Whats your opinion on the car in general as a posed to the civic ep3 ?

Cheers let me know what you think , the history is seriously as thick as the bible !

rollerdan is that toms ?

 

[rollerdan]

rollerdan is that toms ?

Indeed it is mate ? Lives in same town as me ocd about his car

 

[Starlet_gt]

Tom O'Rourke?

 

[welsh.Z.S.]

That's the 1 lol.. Recently sold his type r also... He's still got the quattro I hope?

 

[Lewisloo]

Had a ep3 and a fn2 loved both for different reasons but what an engine when that vtec kicked in it was great!

 

[rollerdan]

That's the 1 lol.. Recently sold his type r also... He's still got the quattro I hope?

Still has the quattro but is currently in bits . Hes tidying it up ready for sale hes selling all his cars hes lost the love lol he sold the civic to a good friend of his called mike. But hes still on his zx-12 his list of previous cars is impressive lol

Awesome engine mate love the fact it keeps asking for revs lol going for a k100 soon and the rev limit will be 8,600 or there abouts guna sound savage !

 

[imprezaworks]

K100 will make a great difference. Have you looked into the ecu reflash, I forget the company who does it. Only work with standard mods, not different manifold etc

Yea i have mate cpl do the reflash , was nearly guna do it , intil i read some threads alot of negativity regarding the reflash mainly being its basic base map but dont know how far i wanna go with engine tuning so still maybe a possibility !

 

[imprezaworks]

Yeah that's the company. Kpowell off here had it done, rated it. But like you say depends how far you want to go I guess.

[SharkyUK]

Few pics after a wash

Looking shiney

Tidied up the wiring on my fuel rail earlier as dont wanna use a engine cover as was . So hid all wiring under the fuel rail looks alot neater .

 

[Philip.]

Fuel rail tuck looks good! Seen a few now, what's involved, just a 5min job?

Fairly simple mate once you remove the wiring protector . Pitty my rails in rubbish condition or it would look alot better .

 

[Philip.]

Sweet, if I was keeping it I'd get that done, looks neat.
What about some wire wool and metal polish?

Thats what ima try mate but the coating has come of in places ! May remove and powdercoat it . What you getting next mate

 

[msremmert]

He'll never loose the love lol. Though I'm enjoying the Civic It needs nothing except maybe a brake bleed.

Got bored so I put some LEDs in the footwells for lulz. Easy job if you're ever bored Dan.

Looks decent mate , if your doing the brake bleed get some braided lines makes the pedal alot firmer

There's loads of amazing cars on the auctions, i'm on there most nights!

With the spec of the car i'm hoping to bring over, i'd expect to make at least a grand if I sold it straight on.
