No problems yet.
This is a great car! The performance is great. When I first got it I raced a Honda Civic Ex, Dodge Neon, Acura Integra, and a Ford Focus and beat them all!
Since then I have added a few performance parts such as, a cold air intake, stainless steel headers, cat-back exhaust, stage 2 clutch, short shifter, and a computer chip.
Since the parts I have raced a Honda Prelude, Acura Rsx, new Toyota Celica gt-s, and a 5.0 Ford Mustang and beat them all! I just recently got my car to top speed and it was 150 mph, probably could have got 160 if had more road!
How much H. P does your Celica have.
DO NOT believe you beat a 5.0L Mustang, or the other cars you mentioned... even with bolt on parts...
Where did you get your performance parts?? I own a 92 celica gts and I can't find ANYTHING!!! Please send me some info. gort09@yahoo.com.
I also have a 92 toyota celica (which I love) but can you tell me where you got your headers. you can email me at mruntouchable21@yahoo.com.
Where did you get the headers and the cold air intake I have a 1992 celica and cannot find those parts anywhere please get back to me @ dewayne.johnson@cingular.com.
With those parts you listed there is no way that you beat a 5 liter Mustang, unless it was driven by my grandma. they have so much more power than a Celica, its not even realistic to think that way.
I can't find a cold air intake for a 1992 Celica either. Where are you finding it?
I ALSO have a 1992 Celica GT... I was wondering as well where you found the headers and the cold air intake... and also how you beat that mustang... he must have stalled out or something cuz theres no way.

I Have a 2000 Toyota Celica GT-S without performance, Upgrades And I raced It, This is the list of Toyota wins, Honda prelude, Acura Integra Type-R, Nissan 240SX, Camaro V6 Automatic 3.8,Mustang Automatic V6,Golf V6,
Ford Probe, Honda Acord, Dogde Intrepid, Nissan Sentra and Toyota celica 99.
There are cold air intakes on Ebay for cheap, but I can't find a header either. I did find Pace exhaust pipes at JC Whitney that are larger diameter. I did find also on Ebay the blower that blows air into your short ram air tube. I put on a body kit, peel and stick hood scoops and fender vents and everyone thinks its great.
I have a 92 honda civic lx- 4 door 5 spd., and all it has is a cold air intake and no exhaust, there is no way you have beat those cars because I raced my friends 92 celica gt 5 speed and ate him off the line, and pulled all the way down the street we were racing on. my car is slow, and your celcica is too. you probly raced some v6 automatic mustang and thought your car was fast.
SLOW!!!
Your celica GT uses the 3s-ge camry engine variant, 2.2l and absolutely no performance parts available for it. Unless you had this stuff custom made, which is plausible given that you have sufficient cash, I call b/s.
The celica that is capable of that kind of performance from that year is the ALLTRAC celica which was an AWD version powered by a 3s-gte (t is for turbo charged) this model is the ST-185, and its engine is rated at 187hp, 179ft/lb, it is a 2.0l detuned version of the st-205 which is present in the MR-2 turbo of that same year.
To clear the air, the best platform to work from is the ST-185 3s-gte, which is made to fit in that 1992 celica you have, the ST-195 is from 95+ gt-s alltracs that were not available in the US... and the ST-205 and SW-20 are made for the MR-2 and are problematic when trying to produce a drivetrain for your car, they do exist in alltrac models of later years, but they are made for the generation after yours, so its going to be hard and long to fit and find parts. you can push a ST-185 powered celica using upgrade parts for the 2.0l mr-2 engine, the highest I have seen or done was 275~300 hp and relative torque. this required a lot of money and time, so I wouldn't suggest it to the spare change tuner... I have a shop and time for side projects, and of course I have personal friends that work for toyota TRD and their parts divison. you can order parts at OEM cost to build an ST-185 alltrac, but you could go out and buy an EVO-8 for the price you are going to pay total over time.
I finally found a header for the 92 toyota celica 2.2. I found it on ebay for $285 plus $30 shipping. it replaces the cat converter also and has an opening for the oxygen sensor. its listed as race only, not street legal. its chromed and bolts directly to the front down pipe.I'm getting mine this week. i will replace the front pipe and put pacestter 2.5 inch pipes from the front pipe back. sadly only stock is available for the front pipe.
Hey I have a Toyota Celica GT with a 2.2L engine and I cannot find any parts for it at all. Can you get back to me with some websites I can go to so I can buy the performance parts I need to win? Thank you for your time and my email address is cbowling1017@yahoo.com once again thank you for your time.
Dream on, mustang 5.0...rsx? It's lighter weight/more horsepower. The only person you're kidding is yourself.
