Picked up my first 1995 Celica GT today and after driving it for awhile it really seems to fall on it's face after about 5000RPM.........any ideas why it's doing that? Fuel pump? Bad intake? Injectors? First thing tomorrow I'm removing the intake and cleaning the TB and the intake filter and then a full tank of 93 octane. I'll probably check the spark plugs/gaps while I'm in there, anyone know what the stock gap should be? Only mods it has are a DIY intake and a full catback exhaust.

well i only have an ST, but from what im told.. the GT isnt too much different. My engine runs perfect, nothing at all wrong everything new, but i dont have any power past 5k, past 4k really for that matter. I just dont think it (7a at least) is meant for that kind of driving. Maybe with all the things you said, and a header it can get a little more power? but i dont imagine much
3s FTW
