The 1990ish GT4 (which wasn't run in the WRC until 1991) didn't have to compete with WRXs, it's competed against Legacys (heavier) and more importantly the Lancia Delta Integrale 16v etc etc, it didn't dominate but competed on equal par. When they brought out the next Celica, they put an illegal turbo restrictor on so that they could get an extra 30hp on top of the opposition. They had a way bigger budget than subaru, mitsubishi etc etc at that time and also had the pick of the drivers being the top competing team once lancia had died off.

As for a road GT4 vs a WRX or maybe even an Evo? The road GT4 (not the group A specials and things like that with twin entry turbo) took about 8.5sec to get to 100km/h. Earliest WRX took about 7.2sec or something like that. They only put out about 150kW, but there is room for more obviously, the standard turbo is known to be a bit of a weak point of the engine. Early evos are about the same, later evos are quicker still but come with a price tag.

However, the 1990 Celica looks way better than either of them despite what people said at the time, and on top of that, are generally alot stronger drivetrain wise.
