- The famous Toyota Celica ST205 driven by the factory team drivers Juha Kankkunen, Didier Auriol and Armin Schwarz in the World Rally Championship 1994-95.
The new Celica introduced in '94 turned out to be big and clumsy, with poorer handling and down on power thanks to the new regulations. So they decided to be creative at Toyota Team Europe, ending in one of the biggest cheating scandals in years:

The best (most vivid) memory of this car is from Finland '96 when I was hit by stones and rubble standing in the outside corner. It was Juha, back from his sabbatical year off, throwing his Celica around with a smile.
"standing in the outside corner"
Lol that same thing happened to me but with Didier Auriol driving the Celica in Sweden '95. Took a big old stone to the knee cap that sent me to the ground :D
@@installshieldwizard3017 forgive him for not being a snowflake
@@drazenbudis7881 what would being a snowflake be like then?
@@installshieldwizard3017 oh its bad
I remember when they found out the "cheat" the FIA was like " Thats so ingenious i aint even mad " it was so well made and executed.
Sorry I only got into rally racing in the last couple of years (and I’m also only 18) what’s this cheat?
@@griffins5655 they engineered (brilliantly) an expanding restrictor plate that when tightened, expanded allowing more air into the turbo. You couldn’t tell as when you took it off, it closed back to the allowed size. Very, very clever.
@@NightwalkerUK ooh that’s sick! How did they manage to get it to close back? I could understand if they used a more dense but flexible metal so that it would compress and expand but how the fuck did they get it to go back to the original shape?!?
@@griffins5655 www.themechanists.com/2019/03/11/a-cheat-so-brilliant-it-was-applauded-by-rule-makers/
Yeah.. They were not even mad..so They banned whole team on 1996 season
supra: i was in fast and furious.
gt-four: oh thats cute.
Oh thats cute. Toyota Supra Celica laughs
Oh this age old joke again... Is it time to laugh now?
C R I N G E
tbf Supra was in JGTC
@@HHCHunterYTC it was, but you pretty much could buy this as it was.
Finally, a car video without stupid music !! Tks !!
Lol.....Exactly what I thought.
All the music we needed was that snarling and crackling coming from the exhaust
@@aussieausdeutschland4245 it's the perfect music, I listen to this in my headphone while I am working :) such a good soundtrack
The mid 90's had the coolest rally cars!
*Laughs in Group B
@@crusty_trucks group b was awesome but i feel like the only car i like in group b was the rs2000 and the audi quattro s1 e2 group a just had cooler cars and noises in my opinion
@@crusty_trucks group B was slower than 1996 -1997 group A cars and group B cars couldn’t use handbrake on turns..but kids like you have zero idea about that.
@@zepter00 you're kind of talking out of your ass. The group A cars were in no way faster than group B. The group B, in the final years had twice the power of the later group A cars and with ~250KG less. But the engineering of the group A class in the mid 90s was better for sure, the cars weren't as much of a death trap.
@UCuJI1MMqTzC2TC_5OWPnukQ it'd be interesting to see results on other stages.
Unforgettable in the Castrol livery!
I'll never forget the sound of this beast echoing through the woods minutes before we could see it in the Rally de Portugal. Great times.
the best Celica for ever
mk4 to mk6 are the best
Nah the pop up one was better the st185
@@lild3838 eh I’m not the biggest fan of the looks of the st185. I’m more of a fan of the st205.
@@mrstrawcloud wile a rally legend the road version always struck me as a over-inflated ST165 (which my dad had and which turned me of the st185 shape wise) always had a thing for the ST205 family...still miss my at200 T.T despite the tractor turning circle, being somewhat thirsty wile in city traffic, and it's 115hp 1.8 requiring a plan to overtake instead of just winging it i just loved it's shape always walked towards it with a smile, shame toyota is not known for amazing rustproofing, they'd be damn near immortal :(
One of the best channels on YT hands down and I love the new style of adding some info while showing the images. THANK YOU SO MUCH to make my childhood memories alive again.
Amjayes is back?!? That's the best news of 2020!
Brings back great memories of when I attended Rally Australia in the mid-1990's. I remember when the GT-Four was going through scrutineering, Juha Kankkunen was there making jokes and having a good time!
I love the sound with the anti-lag crackles and pops.
I have the GT version of this car. I Love it so much.
Man, i can't even write down how nice is it, to have you back. Thanks for the work. Btw. nice touch with some extra info, while staying quite and leting us listen to those beasts. Have a great day.

@@miralemnermina142 how? He fixes cars and has decades of experience. He may be biased towards Japanese brands but it's not without reason.
Awesome footage, awesome sound, awesome editing. Great to hear Nicky’s voice without any shitty CZcams music. The ST205 was a perfect example of; If you don’t cheat, you don’t want to win bad enough. You can try to justify what Toyota did, as every fan and other team would themselves. It’s what engineers are paid for. 😎
You can definitely see and hear that change in horsepower between RAC 94 and Monte 95
🤣
🤣🤣you have definitely some special ears 😂😂
@@ronaldstreicher2532 egine revs higher with more power, quite simple
@@037racing they had more torque not revs...simple
@@ronaldstreicher2532 Turbo air intake restrictor was reduced to 34 mm before 1995 season, and the engine didn't cope with that very well. Power output dropped almost 100 hp from 1994 season according to Kankkunen
You can just hear on that first debut the fierceness of the engine stealing air, ripping it from the very atmosphere around it and turning it into the most passionate and powerful fire that the engine can muster, every ounce of its energy put into being absolutely perfect in every cylinders exploring and as the drivetrain forces all of its mechanical might to shove the dirt and land behind it.
Nothing wrong with the turbo.
It was a clever air restrictor deemed illegal
that's because it was illegal and Toyota knew it. mind you its only cheating if you get caught
It's cheating.. plain simple. No respect for rules or competition.
A real low for Toyota
@@mortenfrosthansen84 yeah righto cranky 🤣
You not too savvy on behind the scenes stuff with a blunt narrow comment like that 🤣
@@r8malooman and you're a real firecracker yourself eh? With the emojis and what not.. why don't you give yourself a pad on the shoulder.
How am i wrong?
@@r8malooman and you immediately know me, by reading one comment? What a tool
St 205...Una leggenda intramontabile! Grazie per il video.
The snow rims look hot!
0:40 *mustang mode: ON*
😂
"FIA" dislikes this....
Ah you are an educated one! They did indeed have illegal turbo tuning on these celicas lmao
Always had a soft spot for that wide flat body shell. Just like the P2000. Its looked both sleek and fat ! And I just love how agile the cars looked in action back then. Really active and lively and powerful.
Fabulous video 👏👍🙂
Great to see you back 😁
A thing of beauty.
Good to see you back
The curves on these Celicas....such beautiful machines.
Another top video. Brilliant stuff
That thing looks lethal on tarmac 😮
Welcome back missed your videos
I've owned a st185 GTFOUR and an St202 Beams red top and personally the best thing about these cars are the feed back from steering to handling and the right amount of power they really are like big go karts!
very well done with the editing in this vid
Brilliant video. Thankyou
the sound has a ST185 feel, but it's a tad less aggressive
anyway welcome back amjayes
Love your content. Keep it coming. :)
The time when rallye cars were legendary
Great stuff. Thx from austria
Fantastic video 👍
Master piece!!!!
My favorite Sega Rally racer 👍❤
Juha kankkunen drove that car in the last two rounds of the 1994 season
Time to see this beast again in GT7 next week🏁
I have one of those and love it to bits
that extra 25hp was paying off shame it was banned
Thank You.
Nicky Grist, in adition of being a co driving legend, he is also a champion, in 93 with KKK.
great viedo. nice new style !
The restrictor was more of a spit in the face of FIA rather than cheating, that's why they banned the car.
FIA is French so...
@@hbtm2951 you mean they are cucked too?
@@installshieldwizard3017 Not that really but if you take Balestre into consideration as someone who did actuate in favor of his weird ideals, maybe. Too bad this is so controversial that this is going to be the final comment of mine about this (yes, there will be denial and crying but in the end that's the truth).
bs chose an uncompetitive platform to start with for marketing reasons and proceeded to dig a whole for themselves
What? Yeah in your mind maybe... It was downright embarrassing, when they got caught.. they never expected it to be uncovered. fucking cheaters
awesome video
Love the antilag system on those st205's. Was not a fan of the side exhaust. Ford was the best with side exhausts
Sierra 3dr,sapphire, escort cossies.
I want a 96 gt four. Then my life would be complete!!
You can buy one for about 30k euros.
Theres like a dozen on sale just in germany.
Very tempting to get one of these as my second car....
Literally my dream car
No boot space though.
@@Charliechorizo I had an 03 celica, had plenty of cargo space. For what I needed it for, anyways.
The most beautiful rally car ever created.
I used to have a Celica GT4 fantastic cars
The reason why i loved playing Sega Rally :)
The induction noise on full boost was particularly 'sweet'. Ove Andersson was mortified.
This Toyota Celica car first appeared in Sega Rally Championship 1995 (Arcade & Sega Saturn).
Раллийная ST205 и гражданская ST205 это конечно разные машины... Даже в настоящее время когда выезжаю, привлекает внимание.. каждый день ездить не будешь, но иногда...положительные эмоции гарантированы.
A genius Toyota!!! Love it!
Those Snarling Celicas... the best sounding car of all the 90s rally weapons.
3:52 that is one juicy transition DAMN
Such a great car..
Good vid,i prefer the pop-up headlights i think of the st185,cute hehe
My favorite car ever.
The banned car manufacturer still makes the best car to come to this world car 30 years later
It’s hard to believe that the same engine in the ST205 rally car was also used for the Supra in JGTC
いつの時代もラリーdriverは狂ってるよなぁ😃
カッコいい～‼️
コーナーを気持ちよく曲がって俺にもできるんじゃね⁉️って錯覚おこしてまうほど綺麗なコーナーリングww
In an era rllying full with cool cars..
That 2step is eargasm!!
Legendary.
The most perfect trick in the history of motorsports recognized by FIA Chairman.
Waiting for EsCos video!
Спасибо, История, Супер!!! 👍
Amazing vídeo!!!!! Congratulations!
I'm obsessed with this car, in the Castrol livery. It's beautiful. When I hear the word "Rally" I see this car. The only other car on the same level of beauty is the Alitalia livery Lancia Stratos. I guess you could add the Lancia Delta HF Integrale with Martini Racing livery. Does that ring a bell?
my nigga Nicky Grist was out here just casually changing rally racing forever from the passenger seat.....
Simple amazing 👍👍👍👍
La más linda !
La tramposa !!!
♥️
top marks bro
When you say a fast Toyota, most people tend to imagine the Supra. I think most viewers of this video would instead say Celica GT-Four. I think it's so much cooler than the Supra.
Maybe that's just the rally fan in me speaking. Or the guy who doesn't want the same car that everyone wants. Either way, Celica GT-Four > Yaris GR >>> any Supra.
Happy to see Toyota back in rallying, hoping to see them steal the title back from Hyundai.
I Love this awesome successfull Rallye Celica.
Saving for one
First version Celica: Japan's Mustang
After some updates it keeps getting better
This was an Integra Type R on steroids in my opinion
Luv this.
The best Group A car imho, they would have won the 1995 title - even without cheating.
I love the escos
thats wht made it worse the fact they didnt have too
@3213232 1231223 because Toyota cheated
@3213232 1231223 yeah but point being made is the Toyota Celica was good enough they didn't have to cheat they could have still had a very good chance win the title . So they really messed up twice
@3213232 1231223 Because Toyota did get banned
There is a diffrence on being called Banned and being a Cheater
beware this is a fan girl site, your post will be deleted
Didn't know that Scotty Kilmer's car could slide around like that 😯
Some of this footage looks like shot on full HD camera. It must be some crazy expensive gear back then !
当時のデータ等が今のGR Yarisにも活かされているのでしょうね💖
I had a yellow ST205 fir a short period. Im sure the golf ball sized circular bonnet/ hood vent to the left of the main one (which was for the chargecooler) fed the cambelt area 🤔
Any ST205 aficionados know what it was for and why? Some people called it the Bullet Hole or Bullet Vent.
Yep, cam belt cooler. I have an st205 myself
Nada que comparar a estos grandisimos con pilotos de hoy en dia( sin menos despreciar a pilotos de wrc a dia de hoy), pero coches inferiores en tecnologia y mecanica comparando a los wrc de hoy pero ofreciendo el mismo espectáculo que a los wrc de hoy en dia, incluso más espectáculo debido a las carencias que habia en aquella época. Mucho más dificil de pilotar y mucha mano para llevar al limite éstos coches. Grandes pilotos de aquella época.
0:52 somebody swearing with a blasphemy in Italian XD
What were they saying?
I am not sure which of the Group A cars is the best looking, but this one definitely looks the most focussed in its design - not a four door, low slung, purposeful.
とても素晴らしい映像を見つけました！CELICAは、私の人生の一部です。I found a very nice video! CELICA is a part of my life.
Toyota cheats in Rally
Volkswagen: hold my emissions
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Game over yeeeeeah!
I wonder how long they were using the ilegal restrictor, in Portugal they made a huge leap in power output... they said "it was a new microchip", yeah yeah, sure sure...
To be frank the restrictor thing was a gateway for cheating. In practice those cars had bigger engines than Group B, but much smaller turbos. Putting a restrictor instead of enforcing a unified turbo spec (like they do now) allowed to putting any turbo you wanted, you just had to put that piece there to restrict the intake. If you look at WRCs of the period that teams and pilots preserve, all can go way higher than 300HP with those turbos. I've heard the Imp '95 goes to 365HP without said restrictor.
