Just noticed the non flip up headlight conversion, very cool! Im diggin the light bar also, make it yourself?

It was already there but it would be super easy to bang one out.

If people are serious about making rally cars, your first trip should be to the FIA and order yourself a homologation rule book specific to the st165...it will give details of roll cages etc etc to enable you to produce a rally suitable st165 or any car for that matter.

heres the web site...finding the specific homolgation papers might take some hunting around and they will cost typically about £55 ($80)

I have the homologation book for the st205 and its fascinating.

Also TTE abandoned the headlight down position shortly after entering the 165 in rallying, and opted for the permanent headlight up position as this allowed more airflow into the engine bay, kept things cooler and helped with the power that the engine produced eciding that the extra drag this created was worth it for the extra cooling.

(Yes I have just bought that new Rally Giants Celica GT-Four Book :D )
