So I'm looking to get into this whole Celica Scene for a commuter vehicle and had a couple of questions.....
First I'm looking to buy a 1994 Toyota Celica St with 215k on the body and about 115k on the motor which I'm told is the 4A-Fe and stock 5 speed Tranny. Now down to the business of everything Celica related, What kind of gas mileage should I be pulling? Also what would you think is a proper price? The body is in good shape and clear is faded but not too bad. And are there any problem areas I should be made aware of when I go to look at it like popular rust spots or weak parts? Sorry for all these questions but I've always been a Camaro man and I know little to none about imports and 4 bangers. Thanks for any and all input no matter how small or simple. I need all the help I can get haha |

Swiss, the 4A and 7A are nearly identical, and if they used the intake manifold from the 7A you probably couldn't tell a difference. Look up posts by "blakout16" and look at his motor. He did a 4AFTE.
