Those wheels are fine..

@@jewboy761 I don’t dislike the wheels. I would personally just go with older style to go full sleeper

@@Thumper68 the 3 piece 15s are period correct. He could have kept the stock wheels but they would need to be stretched to put a bigger tire on to handle the power.

@@nbhobby well that’s not true the stock 14x7 wheel could run a 245/60/14 tire the same I run on my 68 rs/ss camaro that’s making more power.

That is an old style wheel... But it would look better with some work equip 01😎

Agreed

Why are you using that degenerates pfp?

I had a 83 Celica GTS hatchback. Unfortunately it was totaled. Miss that car.

Ist the 1jz the original engine?

@@derkundedeinermutter2196 The Celica GTS had the 22R motor. Same as the pickup and 4Runner.

I had one of these as well when I was about 20. Fun car, especially after I rebuilt the 22R engine and put a cam in it😁. It was my fourth car after a 78 Corolla, an 83 Corolla (when they were both still rear wheel drive), and a short stint in an 80 Saab 900 turbo, that was fun and quick when it was running right, but died a few months after I got it. It was definitely a sob (Saab?) story. My favorite car was my 95 Integra GSR, followed by my current 17 Civic SI, and then that wonderful rear wheel drive 83 Celica!

...And two other very fun and memorable cars I owned that deserve mentioning: an 88 prelude SI with four-wheel steering, and a 98 Dodge neon R/T. Both of them handled amazingly!

I got one same year in white with brown interior kinda dope that only 85 has the same diff out of a Supra

@@tonyfajardo7204 mine was white with blue leather interior. Dad found it and took me to see it. I was sold immediately despite the high mileage. Went through 3 engines in that car learning how to take care of it. 😳

You have a particular place you like to get parts for your 84?

Why not OEM+ it? Keep to the era with parts and the like but subtle improvements to make the car better be it in terms of reliability, comfort or speed

UZ SWAP! KA TRANS!

@@grantobrien3396 the w58 should handle the UZ fine my cousin got a 84 GTS doing a UZ swap and I got an 85 GTS doing a 1j swap both using w58

If it all works well honestly give a go with just updating the suspension.

I got to say you're right on that man so I've always been a die-hard Honda guy of the 90s and early 2000s but there was two people in my car group that had celica's one was a 96 GT beautiful teal color with I think the 2.2 Camry motor with just intake headers exhaust fun car but the other guy in our car group had a 2002 Celica GTS with the full TRD kit on it spoiler etc and with intake headers exhaust that 2ZZ was a badass car he used to hang neck and neck with our buddy with the RSX that was in the car group and we also had another guy in the car group with the 05 Toyota Corolla XRS with the same motor both badass cars with that engine personally out of all the celica's I like the 96 GT and the 2002 Celica GTS those are my favorite body styles and that early 2000s Tuesday was literally Toyota's equivalent to the K20 Honda motor my buddies was silver carbon fiber hood roof and trunk on some really nice black wheels beautiful car you rarely see them fixed up and not riqced out I think that's why they don't get a lot of love but man when those ones are done right they are awesome cars I was hoping somebody would bring that up in the comments

@@seattlejdmcivic I've got a TRD GTS with the whole sha-bang aswell that i daily, i friggin love this thing; its like ungoddly amounts of fun and IMO its one of the best handling FWD sports cars. and the 'lift' engagement, or VTEC hits pretty hard, it almost doubles HP from 6000 to 7000 RPM and carries it all the way to 8000-8600 rpm, depending on what ECU you have in the car. unfortunately the one problem with this engine is modability. while the 2ZZ can push 300hp N/A, its incredibly expensive because Yamaha pushed the engine near its reliable limit and then locked the ECU so you have to buy an expensive modded one before you can even get a proper base tune out of the car, which leads to people just swapping out existing ECUs or finding the TRD upgrades like the headers, exhaust and if they are lucky, the Supercharger from the Lotus Exige. or if they are even luckier, the TRD supercharger. but even those only make 220 and 230hp respectively

@@massluca0078 that's what's up man honestly I was trying to find some reviews on the early 2000s GTS with the TRD kit on it and there's really doesn't seem to be any good reviews of driving one just people talking about the good and bad but not really any good driving reviews do you happen to have any videos of yours I honestly think it would be an interesting race with either one of my cars I got my 95 Civic that's my built track car I've been building for 7 years always been a 90s Honda fan but I think it would probably be a better race with my daily driver that I got from my uncle it's a 04 Honda Accord coupe the Honda factory performance model hfp with the hfp front lift rear lift side skirts bigger Wheels bigger brakes the V6 with intake headers exhaust the bigger 3.5 intake manifold and throttle body and I'll be hanging with a lot of v8s the V6 J series Hondas are definitely a whole different level than all the B series and k series I wish my buddy still had his GTS unfortunately he ended up getting rid of it for the BRZ which I think was a huge mistake those things are so damn slow back with my Honda was a simple d series single cam I was smoking those things but yeah the Celica you have like my buddies is probably the only one I would personally own just because it is so close to the K20 and I'd be happy with just intake headers exhaust and even though a tune and ECU would be expensive just get it chipped and tuned on the dino to those bolt-ons and I'm sure it would open up that 2zz motor real nice

Don’t worry I told David you were the one who built it lol. I also told him you’re waiting for me to sell it back to you lol. It’s been a seriously fun car. Glad I bought it and saved it from being parted out. Good to hear from ya Ethan!

Hey dude! Sell it back to me now okay??

The last Celica should've been RWD.

SC 3.4 needs some meth injection so bad from all the heat too. One of the best sounds as far as superchargers go. Getting my aem FIC6 to work too can sometimes be good and bad. They corner terrible though.

@@sparkster_6087right now I have the urd piggyback w/7th injector. but i bought the snow water meth stage 2 kit to put in. ya they need meth. I cooked the rotorpack bearings on my first supercharger in less than 15k miles..... my trucks no car but it rips the corners. I have my shocks set super stiff tho and im on 32'' tires with bilstein 2'' leveling kit coilovers and bilstein bypass 5160s in the rear.

@@shaunmilor Did you forget to put oil in the snout? I've never heard of the rotor bearings going out from anything other than a lack of oil or hard water injected. But the hard water ate the oil seals and it leaked oil into the intake and died to no oil as well. The truck can take a corner but it scares my friends with the amount of body roll it gets. Though I am still on 220k oem bilsteins. I always disliked the 7th for the way it worked, more of a patch fix than actually tuning, pushing more fuel into the engine than it could tune out.

@@sparkster_6087 so I checked the oil once a week because I started getting a slow leak in the nose......how I blew it up. -so I live in the central valley of california and took a trip up over the mountains through yosemite national park out into gold country in the nevada desert. it was in the middle of july and it was around 110 degrees and I was carrying probably 800 pounds of gear and was pushing the truck hard like triple digit speed hard. everyone was hauling ass . The problem was I was running a 2" pulley pushing 12-14 psi of boost and creating a ton of heat. I have an engine oil cooler off of an f250, a champion aluminum 3 core radiator and no clutch fan just a big electric fan and a hood with louvers and was running hot.

once I got home the truck was fine but the supercharger was making a little noise then one day 2 months later I got to work and heard metal on metal and it was cooked.

I own one. They are not given close to half the credit they deserve. Tbh unless you mod the 3SGTE GT-Fours...I'd say the Mk7 GTS 2ZZ is faster.

@@raregliscor1 i had a 2001 GTS and i enjoyed it
