Normally they had 204 bhp, but at the end of making, there was a special version with 238 bhp,only black with full spec, lika abs, aircon, airbags and so on, There is one of those here in Antwerp, I spoke to the owner : very thirsty, 15-16mpg, and not so fast as my scooby, but a real drivirs car, good handling and roadholding.

ST205 GT4 = 245 bhp and very good on the fuel (ave 28mpg).

My mum is selling her GT-4 St185 (G reg). She has owned it for over 10 years and to be fair, it's been a really good car.

A few friends have had different GT-4's, but the new version ( ST205 ) does have a claimed 245 bhp, or thereabouts.
Whilst it was ok, and had good brakes, I hate the bloody things, as they are one of the most difficult cars to work at, I have ever had the misfortune to work on. Thankfully they got rid of them after seeing sense.
The ST185's are a completely different car the ST205, but still as awkward, and not as good, or reliable as the later model.

when did the new one (st205) replace the old ones (st185)? was it on the shape change or the revised older one?
mk5 and mk6 i think.

The last of the JDM ST205s has 260ps engine. That 3S-GTE engine was also fitted to a 4wd JDM version of the Avensis estate (called a Caldina GT-T).

As quick as a scooby on the road.......

I've played with 3 different GT4's (strange, but they seem to like my car <shrug of shoulders&gt Anyways, they have all been in various states of tune and I've managed to out-accelerate all of them. One did come pretty close though. All good humoured and enjoyable bar one guy who took exception

Had a 94 import , doesn't feel as quick as Scooby but probably not much in it on the road.(240 ish brake) Tracked mine once , good standard brakes no fade after 5/6 laps of K/hill, handled better than expected too.
Nice inside ,sexy bonnet.... good value for £££ .Like someones said previously don't fancy doing any major spannerwork on one.

Difficult to remember but I think when it was 'closest' I had the scoobysport backbox, TEK2.5 and dawes at something shy of 1.2bar.

MY99 btw.

If I was to play with the same car again I'd give it a bit of a thrashing now...assuming my car could be bothered. Its a bit of a wierdo. Was driving back from Aberdeen and it was being a real pig under boost. Then just outside Dundee....bam...cleared her throat and was flying Ho-hum!
