Well, after all that work that i'v done to my car, today i recived a call from one guy that sells celicas... And ya know what he told me.., he gave me an ofer that i cant resist....

Its a GT4 '94 with 38.000 km on clock. Its a TRUE JDM, it was imported from JAPAN. It has a little damage on both fenders, and has some front wheel damage. But its seems that it can be repaired easy. Here are some photos:

BUY IT DAWG!!

This is my dream. There are 70 of these cars in Australia and none of them are for sale. It is illegal to import any more.

DOOOOO IIIIIIIIIIIIT!!!!

It looks in nice condition as well, 38,000 km's is nothing! That's almost ex demo. It looks completely stock and fully optioned... Those Jap's are crazy I can't believe they wrote it off after that damage >smile.gif>

Well, im THINKING about this RIGHT NOW, but you cant imagine what it takes to make a desidion like this...... Im out of money, and i still have my ST, and i will have to convert it from RHD to LHD, cuz it is illegal to register the car with RHD here..... So another 1000$ is needed...

Well, and the price for this car is about 6K$..... so im really pissed....

This is an excellent offer man. I think you can get that kind of money if you sell your ST. GO FOR IT.
Are those leather seats as well?

You should race a few people with your turbo installed... race them for money.. save all that money up for the gt4 >smile.gif>

even if you put $6000 into your ST-T you still won't have the potential of that car, not to mention its made for power and you have all wheel drive something no ST has. i say go for it and sell all your parts to recoup some money.

or put it all on your car and then sell it. A car like yours with all that work would go for at least $10,000 if you find the right buyer

awd 2.0L stock turbo.... vs FF 1.8L custom turbo... other than the gobs of custom work you done i fail to see why youd want to keep the ST. now you can do custom work on the GT-4 and make it look even more insane, but now its got the capability to back it up >wink.gif>

im gonna go against the grain here.... id say keep you ST... yeah, the GT4 could kick its ass, and is the pinnacle of the celicas... but your ST is your life man... its like your kid... and you dont just trade in your kid if a better one comes along.... you've put so much into that car man... id say keep it....

or whore youself out to 60 fat chicks for $100...

or 6 really fat chicks for $1000....

then you can have both >biggrin.gif>

Wow, i'd take the gt4 if your funds will allow it. I mean economically its probably the better decision cuz you could always sell it after making the repairs and make the $$$$$ back. I say go gt-4. You never what how exactly ur custom turbo is gonna work, and this thing is REALLY made for what you want out of it. I say GT-4 all the way bro. >smile.gif>

you'll regret it if you dont buy it Doggy....you know that right? <---- the guilt trip method of convincing =)
But you seriously will regret it don't you think? You probably wont have something like this happen to you again...grab that thing while it's still grabable.

its a hard decision. I would never have gotten rid of my corolla that i was fixing up except for the fact that someone totalled it, stupid drivers. but i love my celica and its a whole lot nicer than the rolla but the rolla was my work and 1st car.

Well, i made a desidion.

Well, i dont have money to get it right now, doing this i will have to sell my ST fast, and my car is now not painted, with all the bodykit, and stuff, there are a lot of things done to it that you guys dont know yet, so i spent TOO much TIME and MONEY on it that i could JUST GIVE HER UP and sell it cheap. Maybe this is the chance of my life, but i was planing one day to get the GT4 anyway, but at first i have to COMPLEATE my project, i dont like leaving things unfinished. I dumped 3600$ into my ST during winter, and have a lot of parts laying around in my room, and i dont want to start selling them cheaper then i bought them. So, i guess im back into my old ROAD. Till i finish my ST, and let her to some one else....

I know that i will regret one day, but maybe MAYBE i will be able to find A BETTER deal.... And yes, if i would sell my ST, i would miss her VERY very much, cuz i was building her like my dream, and it will BE LIKE this then i finish her, and the end is not that FAR away...

Thanks guys for the suport, understanding, and good thoughts.....

Get both. I did. Although my family is pressing me to sell one of the two, i am really trying to sell my father's old lancer just to have a reason to keep my curren and let my father drive it. $6k is nothing. I have put around $30k in my GT4 so far (10k just for custom duties though) Get a loan or something. Or ask your parents for a loan and pay them back later. You could say to them that you will sell your old car as soon its finished but in the meantime get the funds and keep both your cars.

oh wait, u r doing a turbo swap aren't you. Well again, you can finish your old car and then decide what to do. And now you can get for $5,500 wow
