Just a general question for people who own celicas. What typically breaks on these cars (beside the wheel covers falling off/"borrowed")? Which of there items will make the car scrap? Thanks in advance

So far i haven't had any problems with my 7a-fe, i've auto-crossed it numerous times. The car still has no signs of anything failing anytime. I also just replaced all the belts and did a coolant flush (myself). My friend and I replaced the clutch and flywheel. I gotta get a new driver side wheel bearing soon. But, from working at a shop, i rarely see toyotas come in for real big problems, just getting tune ups really.
I agree with TerryE, rust is terrible on the fenders. I usually try to wash the car on random warm days in the winter so i can really get the under body of the car, but sadly its been to cold to do that so i gotta go to the automatic ones. As long as you treat your car good, check the fluids all the time, and change the fluids when needed i figure your car will last as long as you want it to last. -------------------- 2nd Gen 3s-gte....
