About the Toyota Celica GT-Four (ST205)

The ST205 GT-Four is the most technically ambitious Celica and the one with the notorious story attached. Toyota built it to contest the 1995 World Rally Championship with a 242 hp 3S-GTE, four-channel ABS, Super Strut front suspension and a water-spray intercooler โ€” then was disqualified and banned for a year for an illegal turbo restrictor bypass.
