I'm hoping we'll make some serious headway on this over summer. We've been a bit busy to devote any time to it lately but I want it to be ready in April.
Will post progress report as & when we make some.

Can tell you that we just bought the motor today. Very slight change in the original plan but a little bit more exciting I think. It's red & we all know red goes faster!

Got an NZ new St205 group A Celica gt4 here in the slow starting stages of bringing her back to former glory

It shall be expensive , and time consumong and probably will drive me mad like my St185 group A in oz did but the end result should be killer !

Heh, one out of an MR2 too, not too many of those around.

Is it auto or manual?

I've got a loom to suit an ST202 for redtop, but it's from an auto.
Since I'm going to have to butcher my loom to suit the Carina anyway, I dont mind swapping if it will make your life easier.

That's not actually a picture of the one I bought. Mines from Celica.

Aaaaah right, okay.

Badges are the other way around on the MR2 vs. FWD ones.
