Hello everyone. I've spent the last 25 years regretting the trade-in of my beloved '86 Celica.
Earlier this year I picked-up a red '99 GT Liftback and been in love ever since. I've been lurking here for a few months.
During that time, I've gathered some really useful information here. Thanks to everyone that's compiled and posted over the years.
As far as my Celica goes, not much to tell yet. I'm just doing maintenance and repair items right now. Started with Timing belt/water pump service,
radiator replacement. Changed the manual transmission oil. Had a pull to the right. Got it aligned and found out that pull was from a separating tire.
So, I got my first mod. Didn't like the tire choices for 15'' wheels. Moved up to 16'' wheels and tires. Still sorting a shifting problem but that's about it.
I'll take some photos and post them soon. Thanks again for all the good information.

That or the clutch hydraulics could need servicing. If you haven't already change the clutch fluid, the best way would be to bleed it and flush all new fluid through it but you can suck out old fluid and top it off and pump the pedal rapidly a few times to kind of cycle it and then suck it out once it looks dirty and top it back off. Repeat until it stays mostly clean. Though if the clutch is slipping it needs replaced anyway, I would go with Exedy/Daikin for an o.e. replacement myself.
