Tamiya presents yet another classic racing car, this time the Toyota Celica GT-FOUR (ST205), combined with the popular TT-02 chassis.
Toyota developed this high-spec version of the sixth-generation Celica with the aim of repeating the 1994 World Rally Championship successes of the previous year.
It featured curved body lines and a distinctive front end with four differently sized headlights and a 2-litre 4-cylinder DOHC turbocharged engine capable of 255 hp. The 4WD system used a central viscous coupling and a Torsen differential in the rear upper drive.
In addition, 2,100 Japanese models were produced with an arched rear spoiler.
