hi im just wondering how you remove the TMIC on a st205?. thanks

Not sure if it's the same, but for my st185 swapped Celica, here's what I do:

Remove 4 bolts to take the cover off, and then I think there are 2 or 3 bolts that hold the ic to the motor. (It's been a while so maybe off on numbers)
Then loosen the hoses from the throttle body and turbo and just wiggle it till it's free.

I found it easier if I just remove the throttle body inlet directly. Makes it easier to pull out.


Hope this helps

cool so its not attached to the other radiator at all its a contained system? as in if i take the top mount off and the radiator then itll all come out without messing with the engine coolant system?

why do you need to take the radiator off? There's two different coolant systems with the GT4's. The engine which goes to the radiator and the one for the topmount IC.

you do not need to disconnect the water lines running from the top-mount to the heat exchanger. You can simply loosen the three bolts holding the top-mount to the engine (one on the passenger side, two on the driver side on a bracket), loosen the rubber couplers coming from the turbo and throttle body, wiggle the turbo coupler fee, and swing the intercooler toward the drivers side. No need to deal with coolant.

everything I just wrote assumes LHD.
