Battery died.
Passenger-side windshield wiper fell off.
Passenger door stuck shut upon purchase.
For a 15 year old car, it doesn't have too many problems.
A FWD Celica with a 2.5L engine? Where did this car come from? Was it cobbled together? How does it handle? If that is a custom built, I want one!

I think the 86 Celica GT came with the 3S-FE engine, which is 2 liters.
He's right, it was the first year of the Front Wheel Drive 2.0L engines.
The 86 GT came with either a 3s-fe or a 2s-e. The 3s and 2s refers to the block type/size/style, while the letters after the dash refer to the head. The e means electronic fuel injection, the f means dual overhead "economic" cams. The gts came witht the 3s-ge, where the g meant "agressive" dual overhead cams.
I bought my 86 gt for $270.00 with 215000 miles on it. This is my 7th celica and my favorite so far. I have to say that it is true you just can't kill the celica motor. But one question for you where can I get a distributor cap for under $45.00??? so far not in Oregon

I bought an 86 Celica GTS for $500, and it is was a great buy. I had to install an alternator, put a new muffler on and get a new bellows. I do need to work on the overdrive though and no one seems to know where the computer is located.
Hey guys I have an 86 Celica GT Coupe with the 2.ol SOHC engine. The ECM or ECU is located under the ashtray, under the carpet and below some foam. This message is for the person wondering about where the computer is for the O?D Tranny. I replaced the ECM on my car and corrected the stalling and bad behavior it was causing. I hope this helps! One more thing ~ Celica's Rock! It is often more pleasing to drive than my 2002 Honda Civic. Weird, but true. Peace Toyota-heads!
