My mate works there and last time I heard there was a gt4 st185 down there being built. Guy had spent 100k+ on doing un imaginable amounts of work. However. Aparently its being built as one of those jack of all master of none cars. Huge subs, show interior, high hp engine but just not a nice car overall. Again, this is just what I was told...
The GT4 is to Celicas what the GTR is to skylines.

That would appear to be a front tugger in the vid...just unsure if its a 183/182 etc.
Random how it sounds as though it has a dump valve instead of a clutched supercharger though.

Perhaps? Don't know why you'd bother, though if its going to be a show car that would figure.

How about a 4wd Townace running a 3SGTE converted to supercharged ... that used to be a rally tow hack, and entered a grass autocross once.

I can't recall for the life of me, but I think apparently it is now deceased due to an engine fire.
