I'm pretty sure you mean the TA64

/rally nerd

What was the Group 4 car that preceeded the TA64? RA63 maybe???

Won the 83 Rally of NZ from memory.

by **Mr Revhead** » Fri Nov 23, 2007 8:17 am

google says 1982 ra63 won it

and id say being 1982, group 4 would be the class.

the best toyotas were made in the 80s :lol:

Then they all rusted away in the 90s

Good man

Gotta say i have two rotaries but i hate the "rotahead" mentality.. And the "Hoonda" mentality too :evil:

The old TA and RA Celica's for me - a fan of mustangs and the Jap mustangs were far better handlers

I'd only have a Supra if it was modded to the max - otherwise too slow and cumbersome (sorry supra lovers)

Close enough, I love that shape Celica with the sloping pop-up but not quite pop-up headlights eh.... I know where an RA63 GT is sitting rotting in a paddock, complete as well.

I also dig X30 and X40 series Mark II/Chaser's, especially hardtops. YUM.

MS51 Crown coupes as well

So many lush old Toyotas to choose from. Basically the wheels fell off in the mid/late 80's and everything from then on was boring and sucked.

CENTURY ALL UP IN Y0 GREEYYULL!!!!

Mr [2JZGTE] who posts on here seems to get by ok with his fairly mildly modified auto Supra - I wouldn't call that too slow or cumbersome!

Exactly. BPU and you have 400hp+.

What does a 300hp MR2 and a 500hp Supra have in common? They both run 12s.

by **79rolla** » Sun Nov 25, 2007 3:47 pm

one of the best (factory) toyota's ever would have to be KE35... but KE30 is colse enough for now:D

by **rollas22** » Thu Nov 29, 2007 11:06 pm

Im a fan of the old RWD Toyota Corollas!!! K-Series represent :lol:

That TA64 is great, almost bought a tear to my eye as it made me miss my old Ta61, it looked similar but without those flaired guards(I'm assuming that was a WRC thing) and it had the slant back headlights like you mentioned.
Although I don't miss the constant cutting rust out of it and trying to find parts

One of my mate remembers that car as well although probably not fondly, I acidentally turned off the pop up headlight switch while he had his hand behind it adjusting the light lol :oops:

Here are some pics:
