1990 Toyota Celica GT review from North America
"Amazing driving machine, able to best newer cars!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I purchased the car I paid only $2200 Canadian for it. Non certified or emission tested.
-Replaced PCV hose from valve cover to throttle body (reduced blowback from the oil cap, passed emissions)
-Replaced valves connecting fuel lines to tank.
General comments?
Always wanted a car like this.
-Beautiful body lines, even at 12 years old it looks newer than most cars!
-Handling is a dream, wish there were more twisty roads (like in england) to drive on.
-Pick up is great, nippy as hell.
-Engine can be modified to create immense HP (300-550)
-Interior is sharp and clean, easy reachable controls.
-Smooth shifting.
