You have my number correct. That is the type of information I would love to get my little toyota loving hands on for my site. I wouldn't publish most of the information of course but it would be good to be able to cross reference to make sure everything adds up.
Darwin huh. Interesting...
www.grparallye.com is still in the design stage. Sorry it's taking so long but I work 6 nights a week and have little experience in making web sites.  I think I'll be taking people up on their offers of assistance.

Trolling through the posts above I came up with this:
Toobs No. 135 Chassis 00016983 Adelaide
Can owners please check that I have their car right or wrong so that I can prove it if I have the correct list or not ? Thanks.
If anyone wants to check a specific St185R Grp A chassis number, let me know.

Right on the money!
Don't know about the original delivery port but she lives in sydney now.
Hey could you post up the original engine number, colour etc?
If you could fax or scan a copy of this document I would f'cking love a copy.
I have been trying to collect this sort of stuff
I have original faxes of the sticker placement and locally delivered modifications, an original copy of the group a brochure and a bunch of other little bits and pieces... this list would be an awesome addition to the collection!

Toobs,
I can't help you mate, sorry. Like I said in my original post, the only info I have on the 150 is the list of chassis numbers, plague numbers and first port of delivery/stock number. All this stuff also had a single line ruled through it making it had to read some numbers. I was not supposed to even get a hold of this list, but I had one friend in Toyota who got hold of this document when perhaps he should not have.......
I will send the stuff to Gary and he can host it on his web-site for the whole world to see and enjoy.
Cheers,
Mitch.

Mate,
to be honest #9 isn't much better now!!!
it's a hybrid between aus spec grp A and jap spec gt4... it'll be a very nice car when the engine rebiuld is completed. After blowing the engine at least twice my mate has finally decided to rebuild with strengthened internals and the like.
At some stage i think we (sydeny boys) should all try and get together... maybe WSID or just a street cruise... potential
cheers

We should all boycot the real Toyota nationals that moved to Tamworth and go to Dubbo anyway!!!

Hey Guys,
Just a quick post to let those that don't know - www.grparallye.com is online. Not much there yet but I'm working on it. I'm working on the pictures section next so anyone with some pics of their cars they would like to show can send them to me through the site. I have some pics of a really great alpine install recently done in a ST185 boot, can't say whose or even what country (security purposes understandably).
Anyone that wants to fill out the form on grparallye.com for their car is welcome otherwise i'll just use the info from this thread. Anyone wanting to continue posting their details to this thread is also welcome.
I'm going for a drive along old cleveland rd this morning to see if i can find that grp A.
Happy holidays to all!!

I didn't get to go and check out the gorgeous white beast I had to go in the complete opposite direction. If i'm not too tired I'll head out that way in about 2 hours. IF.
That #32 might be bogus. The VIN doesn't even come close to matching any of the 150, and the 1990 is wrong of course. Can't say for sure on the engine number but it does seem way too early compared to mine.
What is it with the rest of the world? Don't they get celicas? To me they are the best looking car on the road. If someone put my GT4 next to a brand new manaro and said you can swap if you like i might be tempted but only because I could sell the manaro and buy 2 or even 3 GT4's!!!!! I'm converting those around me slowly. Had a die hard ford escort driver have a sit in mine this morning and he said "Hey, this is nice" Sow the seeds of Toyota my brother's!

Well that's not very handy. I thought rego stickers were all pretty much the same, VIN to help out the cops to track down cars with no plates and to make sure the plates aren't phonies.

That white one is #56, got the VIN off the Vic Rego. It's not in the best condition and it doesn't have the heat shielding under the center vent like most apparently. Poor thing.  Someone rock up there with a big wad of cash and rescue it!! And then spend even more money restoring it.

Hey sikx5 i tried to buy that GT4 from Hobart as well but you outbid me.... wish I had have looked on these forums back then coz I already had got a rear cut for that car ( i was preety confident of winning the auction at the time oh well) but I had no room for the rear cut so I gave it away. I can check and see if the guy has used it yet if interested??
Also I have seen a ST185 that has a badge on the rear "GT-Four RC" anyone know what that is?? is it a JDM group A??
Can't be too many good genuine Group A's out there, a lot were made into race cars and in the last six months I've seen 3 absolute wrecks at Auctions.

hahahaha thats interesting. I wish you outbid me a little more 
I would be intersted in that rear cut, but the problem is transporting that up to queendland. It costed $1600 to bring up the car from hobart, so i can imagine it would be alot for a half cut? unless you can source out a place mate for transport?, i would be very interested in that half cut. Thanks alot.

Yeah they are also Group A's, they are apart of the 5,000 made. They are jap imports, Still a group A with a limited edition number and all, signed by carlos sainz, but not apart of the 150 that came to aus.

I don't know if this has been mentioned already but a white ST-185 Group A came fifth outright in the East Coast Targa. Not a bad effort against all of the GT3 Prosches, Ferrari's and Evo's etc.
There was a show on Channel 10 about it on Sunday but they only ever showed the Celica in passing never any decent info or anything.

Hey how much have all you guys got your Group A insured for?
Its insurance time again this year and I've got the sh!ts with the insured value they want to put on it!
Apparently my insurer decided to "adjust" my agreed value this renewal and dropped the value from 16k to 10.5k I had to argue with the guy that the car was worth more than even the 16k value we agreed to disagree on last year.
Now the agreed value on my new (unpaid) policy is 15.5k
I phoned Shannon's and once I had convinced them that my car was unique and that even though I was under 25 my driving record is pristine their policy was twice the price!
I phoned Vigil and they agreed to 16.5k agreed value and are only about $100 more expensive on the premium... I just don't like the ambiguity of their policy wordings.

There was Group A #5 I think it was on ebay last week. Slightly used in condition....actually a write off. It was red I think and it looked like it had rolled or spun and was going to take like $6000 to repair according to the auction.

Got ya covered Sikx5, wallpapers are on my scope, I've already made one actually, I should stop being greedy and share!
For the media page I intend to break it down like this:
Wallpapers
Diagrams
Photographs
Videos
All the graphics that you see on the site are done by myself in photoshop, I can't tell ya how much time I put in to recreating the Grp A Rallye logo to gigantic proportions but now I'm regretting that I didn't do it in vectors so I could produce clean sticker sets!!!

Excellent! Another one to add, I will update #5 (which is red and on Ebay at the moment  ) and yours #147 tonight!
Again the details on each number is on my scope as well but I'm also not sure as it could be a problem disclosing certain information about the cars and owners. I don't want to upset anyone.
