NO celica came w/ a 'V4' but instead an inline 4. since you have drums and are in the USA you would have a:
Toyota Celica ST
1.8L INLINE4
7AFE engine

[Akirad1]

look at your vin if it has at2 its a st, but from the drums in the rear sounds like a st, but the gas thing is weird

^^^^ u just answerd your own question bro.

[stephen_lee]

my auto ST sucked gas too

i think you need a "tune up"

Plugs, wires, cap&rotor, PCV valve, fuel/air filter, and probably an oil/tranny fluid change.

I'd also mix in half a can of seafoam in your next tank

that list should bring you up to 23-25 mpg w/ a light foot

I changed the oil and the plugs were replaced with new onew a cople of moths ago, the air filter hose has a little air-leak like 1/2" after the metal ring, but I'm waiting to find out my celica type so the I can find the size of the hose to install cold air ram intake on it

[Akirad1]

You have a st and there isnt an real cold air intake for it you will have to make it.

my very first reply told you the type you have. You have an ST

Toyota Celica ST
1.8L 7AFE I4

[relyks95gt]

thats a vacum leak its. 3/8" u can get it at ur general autocare store for 2 bucks and get some new metal ties for 3 bucks and ur done...

[JustinCapps]

i didnt know there was a ST hatch, thought the hatch was a gt thing.

[stetsonaw]

this should help a bit - Wikipedia

[SinisterSinner]

my car's vin says JT2, not ST2 or AT2
it says JT2ATOONR the rest is numbers

[hatchy_gt-s]

JT2 just means that its a jap. spec car, so it came from canada most likely. Mine is a 204,gt-s, JT2vin, because it came from canada.

[stephen_lee]

ok well since you won't listen to me i'll decode your vin
J: Country of Origin: Japan
T: Manufacturer: Toyota
2: Vehicle Type: Passenger Car
A: Engine Family: A Series Engine
T: Model/Platform: Celica FWD
O: Chassis code on car
O: Model Grade
N: Body/Chassis Configuration
R: Check digit

ALSO, you can check your chassis code:
Look on the sticker on the inside of your door after the MODEL:
OR, lookk on your firewall, on the passenger side towards the center

If it says AT200; YOU HAVE AN ST (which the info says you have an ST, and i've been telling you this whole time)
If it says ST204; you have a GT.

Still don't believe me? Write down the WHOLE set of numbers and letters from your firewall and visit this site:
http://www.toyodiy.com/parts/q?vin=
put the number in and it will tell you all you need to know(submodel, country sold in, body style, engine, transmission)

Nope, non-motor dependent. All models of the Celica were available in hatchback form. It's the coupe, vert, and GT4 that were limited.

[hurley97]

look at your vin if it has at2 its a st,

Maybe in most cases but that isn't necessarily true. My ST VIN starts with JT2DB02T6V...

I have seen many 97 st HB vins and they all start this way, D= 2dr HB and, B=7afe. That fact is if it has rear drums it is an ST,
some STs had rear discs w/abs iirc. To my knowlage drums were never an option on a gt.
