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. |

It took a while to get around to it but, finally had time to flush out the clutch fluid. That seems to have made a big improvement in shifting. Old stuff came out kinda muddy.
No more notchy shifting or not releasing the gear. Thanks to everyone for the input, especially Box, you nailed it! Now if I can just catch her clean on a sunny day for some photos. |
