Yes! This is THE best Toyota SEMA build to date. Been watching all these videos. Been involved with rally myself for 20+ years, and rallycross race my own ST182 Celica GT-S while I turbo swap my AW11 MR2. The ST185 GT-FOUR RC or CS is my ultimate Toyota. Love everything about this build. Some cool extra touches with the GR-FOUR on the spoiler riser is a great nod to the GT-FOUR, and of course the Castrol livery is perfectly executed.

@@fightfanianit's a haldex in the center but I can't for the life of me figure out what oil it uses, also while looking online I found out the late Focus RS had a similar system with no center diff but two clutch packs on either side of the rear diff, pretty cool stuff
Ryan restored a gt-four and is modding a separate us market celica to be a modern gt-four clone with the turbo 3 cylinder. His gt-four isn't getting swapped
There just isn't a better Toyota livery in the world than that Castrol, and Evasive knocked it the hell out of the park. Send that bad boy to Lancaster in December for Ridge Rally after SEMA and put some dirt on it.
Wow, this is one of the absolute coolest builds I've ever seen. I'm a Ford guy at heart, but this touches me in ways that would send a teacher to prison.
You have to consider the business sense. We may like it, but with 3 sports cars already on the showroom (supra, gr86, gr corrolla) in the NA market, do they really have room for a 4th?
@@ryj5284overblown hate over it. Its pretty sturdy engine, probably one of the better engines subaru actually made. The lube issue is in track setting, and its the exact same issue alot of fan favourite engines have with sustained high g turns
@@invertedv12powerhouse77 Yeah, I don't quite understand people at times. Do they forget that Subaru was on top in WRC? Personally, I'm not a fan of 3cyl motors. Yeah they mod them for high HP. They are so high strung, I feel you're sitting on a ticking time bomb. I'll take the flat 4 all day.
It's crazy how this looks so much like mid 90s celica gt4 rally car! Looks sick. This guy killed it on this rally build! To bad they didn't have a 95 celica to compare it to!
Please please follow this car if they take it and run it some where. Would love to see video of it in action. Blown away by it. the GT-FOUR has always been a dream car of mine and this is just an amazing tribute.
Roof scoop and hood scoop would really finish it off. And maybe a custom fabricated bumper diffuser instead of the exhaust delete just to make it look a bit more raw rally.
The 90's WRC Celica commanded global respect and this car portraits the same kind of emotion to a global motorsport community. A fluffer of motorsport heritage.
Just perfection, Toyota USA hats off, just amazing build the engineering and design you just nailed it. The 4WD GR85 my dream car, you need to make a road-going production version.😍😍😍 Hot Wheels should make a diecast model of it Larry thanks for bringing us awesome car content like this
really wish they woulda been able to keep the boxer but otherwise this entire thing is a dream come true, really insane to see, the silhouette is amazing
Yes, good idea. Subaru can add the 555 livery with a boxer and a bonnet scoop and have it on their stand next to Toyota. Hindsight, Yamaha can do a red/white YZF version of this with Öhlins gold spatter 😂
This build is really amazing. It shows us the potential of what people can build and what Toyota could have or could build. Apart from the exhausts the build really came along.
I used to drop quarters into a celica rally game back in the day, you stood up but had a wheel, shifter and 2 pedals, great times, then the golden age of rally games, the Colin McRae era and all it’s competitors at the time. I love this build, I do wish they would have changed the engine back like rally cars.
Possibly a hot take but, I think the 86 fits more into the profile of being a Next-Gen Celica than it does into being an 86. Don't get me wrong I still love the car. Although if it came with the 3 - cylinder on AWD and was branded as a celica as an out the box toy it would sell just as good if not better. With that being said this concept is phenomenal and the execution is even better 10/10. Love it.
Ten years ago, there was the GR86X, which was co-developed with Tommi Mäkinen based on the previous 86, but this appears to be the first AWD model since then.
This is the sickest build of 2024 hands-down I hope Toyota takes notice of this and I really hope it does well at Sema because I’m gonna be looking forward to seeing this car in the next four years as a factory vehicle
This is a great and iconic livery. They even had a Super Touring XV10 Camry that raced in the South African Super Touring series that has this livery. It's currently being restored, the other livery Super touring camry (blue Minolta livery) is already restored and active in the Historic Touring Cars New Zealand series. Rod Millen raced one in the North American super touring car championship for a season or 2 as well.
I wish Rallying was as big as back when. That old Celica was such a nice beast, though the homologation specials didn't sell well (spoken as a Canadian who walked past a dealer daily with one).
It looks like almost a "restomod" with some little newer details but this car is something that you always will remember those 90's cars...and that's awesome👏👏👏👏👏👌👍
I would have put a rubber lining around the black exhaust frame, stop the pipes hitting the frame and making that tapping noise. you can get a high heat resistant rubber strip for this.
This was made to tease new Celica Gr-Four coming. Rumored to debut at Tokyo Auto Salon in January. Possibly may debut at another event in 2025. Has new 400hp 2.0L with same GR Corolla drivetrain.
If Toyota actually made a GR-GT-Four it would legitimately be sick.
That and making a bigger version of the yaris gr engine for it would be sick
@@aljoa4350even the Rally1 car has a 4 cylinder. Though Rally2 and lower has the 3 cyl

Odds are looking great, MR2 and Celica very, very likely to come back

I love it.. the wing, the wheels, the livery, the drivetrain, everything. It’s perfect.
As long as it doesn’t catch on fire
@@v8_samithat I have to agree on it’s a BEAUTIFUL build but the motor was a bit of a choice given what’s been happening

At first I was on the fence about the transverse FWD/AWD conversion but now I am 100% impressed.
I guess its more accurate that way, but I think rear bias awd is just better
@@fightfanianthe gr-four system can get up to 70% rear bias because the rear tires are geared to spin faster than the front tires

@@invertedv12powerhouse77 Drop the corolla. It's incredibly disappointing.
@waltersobchak8080 i think it fits the hot hatch market well, so do alot of others. Not everyone can live with a 2 door coupe
This really does look like a next gen Celica gt4. Its fucking perfect
Chef's kiss
I've been watching this build, but didn't expect it to look this factory. Looks incredible.
This is such an epic build. Truly incredible in every way. Tons of respect to the team that dreamt this up and put it together.
Even if it was rwd with the G16, I’m here for it! So much better than a boxer engine!
That would be perfect! 300hp G16 in that nice looking car would be amazing!
Sorry, I don't think it's better than a boxer motor.

This is what this car should be,Absolutely.
I love this package.
We just took delivery of our GR86. Loving it! We've had an RA60 Celica before, it really is the successor to the Celica.
Good to see Gordon still loving rally and bringing us cool projects like this!
Gotta get Carlos Sainz aka Papa Sainz to drive it a bit!
That would be amazing.
might be hard considering his current employment....
Man if Toyota actually puts this into production, Im a Honda guy but I'll order one IMMEDIATELY
This is SOOOOOO Sick!
Please please follow this car if they take it and run it some where. Would love to see video of it in action. Blown away by it. the GT-FOUR has always been a dream car of mine and this is just an amazing tribute.
Larry, your photography skills are really shining here.
Love the old school flavor wing!
We NEED an 86 all trac. Basically the return of the Celica GT-FOUR. I WOULD buy one in the high to mid 40s.
Roof scoop and hood scoop would really finish it off. And maybe a custom fabricated bumper diffuser instead of the exhaust delete just to make it look a bit more raw rally.
Hood scoop would be enough for me
Hands down one of my favorite builds I saw at SEMA. execution 10/10!

Love this car the Livery just topped off this bad ass build. Makes me wonder is Toyota thinking about offering a Rally version Gr86.
I'm not gonna wonder, I'm going down and making a deposit at the dealership today
They technically already _have_ made modern 86s into rally cars. The first-gen had an R-GT kit.
There's one in GT7
Greatest SEMA build iv'e ever seen.
I'm so proud of you, Ryan Higa. From making skit to making skid
They knocked this build out of the park
This is awesome, simply awesome. Now imagine it in fully WRC class specifications... 💥
Please bring this car car to Goodwood FOS for 2025 !
really wish they woulda been able to keep the boxer but otherwise this entire thing is a dream come true, really insane to see, the silhouette is amazing
Tommi Makkinen made an awd gt-86 for Toyota using an Impreza group N drivetrain. Didn’t have as cool of a livery tho.
Thanks Larry this is the pinnacle of automotive for me but I still have my creative vision of a true celica
Omg this needs to be a production car!!! The Celica GT4 was my favorite rally car growing up
Amazing build! 90’s rally style is 🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻
TOYOTA!! MAKE THE GR86-GT-FOUR! AND MY LIFE IS YOURS!
It’s perfect! Just like Larry said, it absolutely captures the essence of the OG!
Huge Castrol Celica nostalgia vibes. I love this thing.
TOYOTA! SUBARU!
THERE IS SOMETHING SPECTACULAR HERE, PUT THIS INTO PRODUCTION!!!
Yes, good idea. Subaru can add the 555 livery with a boxer and a bonnet scoop and have it on their stand next to Toyota.
Hindsight, Yamaha can do a red/white YZF version of this with Öhlins gold spatter 😂
Omg YES YES YES As a st185 owner YES TOYOTA this is what we want
This build is really amazing. It shows us the potential of what people can build and what Toyota could have or could build. Apart from the exhausts the build really came along.
TAKE MY MONEY 💰 ❤ WAKE UP TOYOTA
Used to love watching the Celica on the rally stages in the UK as a kid. This looks fantastic! 🤩
My friend had a 90 all trac in 95, that thing was fun and unstoppable in winter. Like a 9k rev limit too.

Dude! One of my fav car is Celica GT4 Safari and this one based on new 86 is just stunning! The World NEED new 4wd coupe!
Saw this at SEMA this weekend it looked so sick!
OMG this thing is so beautiful!!!! Love it!!
This is the sickest build of 2024 hands-down I hope Toyota takes notice of this and I really hope it does well at Sema because I’m gonna be looking forward to seeing this car in the next four years as a factory vehicle
Toyota is releasing the celiac.. this is what they have in reserve!! This car is a real life spoiler. I am so excited I cant even explain it.
Someone will make a lot of money if they made that wing in numbers.

Yeah this is everything. This build has convinced me I need a GT86
it makes so much sense ... why it wasn't a thing already !! Love it !!
That looks super fun to drive, great build 🔥
Castrol Oil should sponsor this build...
I've kind of been waiting for the GR engine to make it into the 86 but not in this orientation. This is cool as hell though.
I wish Rallying was as big as back when. That old Celica was such a nice beast, though the homologation specials didn't sell well (spoken as a Canadian who walked past a dealer daily with one).
I love this. I hope Toyota make a few actual ones like this.
As a road going version I would love to see GR put a GR in it. A 2GR-FE would be wild.
It looks like almost a "restomod" with some little newer details but this car is something that you always will remember those 90's cars...and that's awesome👏👏👏👏👏👌👍
Had an ST185. This is so cool to see happen.
I was thinking that you should clean one side of the car and leave the other side dirty so people can see both conditions at SEMA! 😃
its beautiful, speedline looking wheels too just like the rallycars. Childhood me is excited to see this car
Intermediate tires :) omg omg its so nice
10:15 st205 wrc style
I really want to see this at ARA events! Looks like it's ready to hit stages.
Looks awesome.. a roof scoop would be dope!!😮🔥
Absolutely amazing build!
got to admit this thing looks dope a f !!!!
everything about this is just right - needs to be put into production both in racing and road trim!
So rad. I wonder if the builders did anything to alleviate the rear diff cooling issues that plague the GR Corolla in the build.
Prob just an extra nozzle from the Sparco suppression system, lol.
toyota PLEASE let this influence the next gen of production cars. would love to see a spiritual revival of the celica in this form
love you larry. keep on keeping on. i love the meaty sidewall look also. nailed it
Toyota needs to make this, actually perfect car
10:12 That wing is gt four inspired
Great Design and idea with retro vibes!❤
Wow that is legit! Lowkey want to make my brz look like this...
Close enough, welcome back 8th gen Toyota Celica.

A few things to add still, roof vent, terratrip, intercom
what a thing of beauty holy moly

Theres talks abo7t there being a new celica being made so the GR GT4 isnt too far off from actual reality. Wouldnt be surprised if it happens tbh
