The CV boots right and left side are bad. The car starts to shake when I go faster then 60MPH and The car makes loud clicking sounds when I make left and right turns. The car also lost a lot of its power when I put the car in 1st gear it barely even moves. Everyone says the clutch burned out. I never smelled the clutch burn out and the clutch pedal is still stiff like it was when I bought my Celica. Anyway I placed an order for Inner and outer CV boot kits. With the problems I'm haveing do you guys think I should consider new Drive shafts? Would the loss of power be from the drive shaft or the Clutch?

The clicking sounds like CV boots. The lack of acceleration and shaking isnt characteristic of busted CV joints.

Shaking over 60 mph, wheel slipped a weight or the alignment is way out.

I agree with Super. Get those cv boots fixed quickly before you need new axels too.
