"Great"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

When I bought the car I had to replace the Bottom tank of the radiator.

Previous owner preferred, to keep a bottle of water in the back instead...

New back brakes, normal wear though. Recently the clutch has disconnected somehow, dirve chain a bit loose.

General comments?

The celica is now 23 years old, quite an age for any car. The engine was replaced before I got it, with a 21R-U.

The body looks OK, the headlights are horrible, they "flop foward", opposed to "popping up".

Handles allright, you feel the car and road when you drive, and with a bit of practice you can make the car go pretty quick..

I should point out the other day, I saw a celica identical to mine, stuck into a tree. The young P plater went into the roundabout and when straight out into a tree.. No injuries.

You may catch celica-itis. And then potentially toyota-itis. Theyre really just that great.

Do you know where to get a water pump for the 24R-U engine?
