1994 Toyota Celica GT from North America - Comments

"A well-built economical sports car that retains all the fun of driving"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Clutch was bad when I purchased it from a private owner. He may not have known how to drive a clutch very well.

It needed a tune-up.

Nothing major.

Left front high beam headlight has gathered some condensation that I cannot seem to extract, and the rubber surround around the low beam headlights is trying to press its way out a little.

I think the car will hold up very well for the abuse they have put it through.

General comments?

Car seems to handle very well considering I was use to driving the 325i BMW with the sports package.

The engine is a bit noisier, but I like the sporty sound & tune of the Celica.

I wish to find out more about putting a turbo on the 5A-S 2.2 engine.

Hey, if you get any info on putting a turbo in your Celica, would you forward it to me.

I have a 1990 Celica GT and I'm planning on putting the $950 spoiler (the less expensive one) on it, but after I get a turbo.

It's more or less the same engine, 2.2 5 speed manual...

So if you could do that, please send to afryer@mb.sympatico.ca

I just recently bought a 1994 celica gt, I am amazed at how nimble and responsive it is. the low end torque is incredible and made me realize I need better tires. this car has 165,000 miles on it and runs better than my dodge avenger did with 50,000 miles! anyone considering one of these should not hesitate, it's a great car for the money! in the spring I am going to drop in a turbo and 17" wheels to handle the added power. any advice on low budget up-grades for this particular year and model would be appreciated! the celica is what the eclipse wishes it could be! respond to kamawhat@yahoo.com.
