I think you're forgetting that the st165 is the gt4 celica, all wheel drive turbo. The st162 was the povvo model that the japs handed down to us aussies. Its easily worth dat much, if i had the money i'd buy it.

MX73 you're wrong bro, FWDboy's listed price is the cheapest listed price on a GT4 I have seen this year, erm, or last year either for that matter.

I guess he's not my target demographic
For those of you who are unsure about what and ST165 is, it's a Celica GT-Four - and secondly, if I ever see a 1988 Celica SX (an ST162) for sale for $1500 that is in perfect running condition, remind me to buy it cause that price would be crazy.

"Sanitary Towel" 165 .....
Wish some car companies would think a little better about the naming schemes.

EnFlaMEd Nah - upgrading to a Kawasaki ZZR-250 thank you very much GT4s don't interest me atm.
Maya -> I think you'll discover they didn't have much choice with naming the thing, seeing as it uses the S series engine (3S-GTE) and is based on the T series platform - thus the 'ST' as per standard Toyota convention.
Now I appreciate the bumps, but could we stick to offers etc. Thanks.

As it turns out the engine is probably totally stuffed and in need of a full rebuild. I'm withdrawing the sale as I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it.

Nissan is ghey wiv teh massif aids (actually that's not entirely true)
Anyway, I'm just not sure if I have the cash at the moment, I might just get the workshop to drop it back home and let it collect dust while I save and save.
Yeah i tried to off it to rob but he just started sobbing.

hmms - well how shagged is the motor ?
if its Uber shagged - then yeah - let it gather dust and rebuild - its not going anywhere in a hurry - save - do it once do it right
you dont have to go totally insane and over the top like my engine rebuild - a freshen up + some upgrades here and there to rings/HG , studs etc will see it back on the road and strong..
Myabe build that 5sGTE youd planned to make before Now that would be unique and go like the clappers in the lightweight 165 shell

Don't need another headache...would rather buy something with history/rebuild info etc.
At this rate I think the car is going to end up in shrink wrapped in my back yard until i can build a 300hp engine to rally spec (restrictions as to what mods can be done).
