You need to highlight the front suspension. These cars came with a very unique front suspension setup called Super Strut. I think only 2 other cars ever got it...the caldina and something else. It's a marginally better suspension for grip when cornering but uses a lot more bushings to handle the additional linkages. Some owners replace the front suspension with standard macpherson struts to be cheaper to maintain, but it looks like this one still has the unique suspension on it. The other thing to look for is the brakes. This car shares a brake system with the legendary mk4 supra, but the celica calipers have "celica" printed on them which is kinda cool too.
The japanese import versions are 250hp stock. Can be modded up to mid 300s quite easily. Going above that you need a new fuel rail to deliver all the fuel that turbo eats at higher HP or it runs lean. Getting towards 500 you want forged internals. Going all out people can get the engine up to 1000hp and make a drag monster.
Hey don't tell other people! I like my car as rare as it it!

What bhp is this approximately?

@@Synaps4What's a rough cost of a forged engine build for these? Like say I wanted about 500hp
Cant Wait To Tesla Swap Mine😅only need 500whp
