1980 Toyota Celica Gt Hatchback 2-door 2.2l on 2040-cars
Moorpark, California, United States
1980 Toyota
Celica Gt lift back (RA42L) You are
viewing a highly customized Celica GT with 131,000 original miles. I am a
Toyota Factory certified Master Technician and ASE certified master technician
with over 30 years of professionally working on Toyota products. This car
originally belonged to my Mother. When she gave me the car in 2000, I proceeded
to replace the 20R carbureted motor with a 22RE fuel injected motor and the
complete fuel injection system from a 1984 Celica. The
installation looks like it came from the factory! I even moved the battery from
the right side to the left side! I took the original
wiring harness and the fuel injected donor vehicle’s harness completely apart
and made one harness using only the factory wires, terminals and connectors. I even fabricated two fuse & relay blocks. I replaced
the three speed automatic with a four speed overdrive automatic transmission. I had the
car repainted and re-upholstered. I installed custom clear headlights and
lenses front and rear. The car also
has custom air brushing on the hood, spoiler and 1/4 panels I swapped in
the 1981 three piece radio. I hunted
junkyards for a year to find the factory 1981 Supra spoiler and the black glass B-piller trims and the 1981 spare
tire wood cover. The car has a full sized spare tire. I replaced the 14 inch steel wheels with the 15 inch alloys with Bridgestone Potenzas 195/60 R15 This vehicle
has been taken to a California Bureau of Auto Repair referee station and issued
a smog system compliance label. It smogs every 2 years as a 1984 Celica. It has
current registration in my name Manual
sunroof works great. I just put a
brand new battery in! **Known Defects** There are approximately 12 paint chips in the left and right doors and fenders. The A/C was converted to R134a, but is currently empty. The engine leaks a little oil. The radio buzzes on one speaker. And the tires are worn to 5/32". This car is
super reliable and can be used as a daily driver or entered in car shows. Why am I
selling her? Hey gotta get on to the next project…I’m envisioning a V-6 SW MR2 |

Audi investing $30.3 billion through 2018 for product expansion
Sun, 29 Dec 2013How does Audi plan to reach two million units in annual sales and pay for the 11 new models it's adding to its lineup - an expansion that may include models named SQ2, Q9 and F-Tron? By increasing its investment to 22 billion euros ($30.3 billion US) between now and 2018. That figure represents an increase of about 500 million euros over the previously planned outlay, according to a report by Automotive News, and that could be due to Audi wishing to goad the momentum that pushed it to 1.5 million annual sales two years ahead of schedule.
It's also about staving off the challenges from BMW and Mercedes-Benz. Now that BMW has been able to turn some of its attention away from its "i" series of Megacity cars, it will reportedly spend more than planned in 2014 as it continues the rollout of ten all-new vehicles and 15 new-generation vehicles through the end of next year. Mercedes, having been dropped to third in the sales race, is preparing to add 13 new cars over the next six years.
Audi's money is going into technology, into product like the next-generation TT and the Q1 and production expansions and upgrades all over the world. The expenditure represents just under a fourth of Volkswagen's 84.2 billion-euro ($115.7 US) outlay devoted to taking the number-one global automaker title away from General Motors and Toyota by 2018.
130,000 Toyota Tundra pickups recalled over airbag issue
Fri, 12 Sep 2014Toyota is announcing a recall for about 130,000 examples of the 2014 Tundra Tundra pickup in Crew-Max Cab and Double Cab configurations.
According to the company, the "garnish on the center pillars" inside the trucks might not have been installed correctly. If the vehicle were in an accident, the side curtain airbags could deploy in the wrong shape. Toyota says that it's not aware of any crashes, injuries or fatalities related to this potential problem.
To fix the issue, the pickups will have their interior center pillars inspected, and if faulty, the pieces will be replaced. Obviously, this will be done at no cost to owners. Scroll down to read the full announcement.
Toyota recalls slew of models for possible airbag calibration defect
Mon, 28 Jan 2013Toyota is recalling sixteen models from the 2009 to 2013 model years over a potential issue with passenger seat airbag calibration. In spite of the large number of different Toyotas covered by the recall, just 3,235 units are included. These were vehicles installed with accessories like leather seat covers and headrest DVD systems by Southeast Toyota Distributors, and during the modifications the passenger seat occupant sensor system might not have been calibration tested. If the sensors aren't set up properly, the passenger airbag might not work as it should.
Affected models include: Avalon, Camry, Camry Hybrid, Corolla, 4Runner, FJ Cruiser, Highlander, Highlander Hybrid, Prius, Prius V, Rav4, Sequoia, Sienna, Tacoma, Tundra and Venza. Scroll down for the relevant model years for each.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that the recall will begin this month. Southeast Toyota will inform owners, at which time they can take their Toyotas to dealers for testing and repair. The complete bulletin from the NHTSA with more information is below.
