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 |

YouTube's Super Bowl commercial buzz list dominated by automakers [w/videos]
Thu, 31 Jan 2013After Sunday's big game, YouTube will be the place to watch every commercial that you missed when you left your seat for an emergency guac refill or, as we say in Cleveland, took the Browns to the Super Bowl. That makes YouTube the nation's water cooler on Monday, and it's got some preliminary stats to share in the lead up to kickoff.
As you know, Super Bowl advertisers, particularly automakers, like to endlessly tease their big budget commercials in the weeks before the game, many times revealing them outright days in advance. Because of this, YouTube can tell us which commercials have been viewed the most so far, and their top five list is all automakers.
Kaley Cuoco appears to have been a good investment for Toyota, as her ad for the RAV4 has garnered the most YouTube views - six million and counting - among Super Bowl commercials so far. Second place goes to Mercedes-Benz, though not its actual Super Bowl commercial, but rather the teaser for it. You know, the one with Kate Upton and the car washing, which is up to 5.6 million views. Third place is Audi's Prom commercial (3.3M views), fourth goes to Volkswagen's slightly controversial Get In, Get Happy ad (3.3M views), and the fifth and final spot is bookended by the teaser video for Kaley Cuoco's commercial (3.2M views). You can watch all five in order below.
Ever wonder how to really pronounce Japanese automaker names?
Thu, 25 Sep 2014People tend to get very set in their ways when it comes to the pronunciation of words. Just look at the endless debates over whether or not to say the final 'e' in Porsche (which you should in terms of correct German enunciation). Or the argument about whether to follow the British convention and give the 'u' in Jaguar a special delivery or to say the 'ua' diphthong as more of a 'w' sound, as usually happens in the US.
This short video doesn't answer either of those automotive questions, but it does allow a native Japanese speaker to demonstrate the accepted pronunciations for several, major automakers from the country. One benefit is that it clears up the occasional debate over whether Nissan should be said with a long or short 'i' sound. Also, listen closely to how the female host says Mazda as Matsuda, the way it's actually said in the language. Even if this doesn't change the way you enunciate these brands, at least now you know the accurate way in Japanese.
GM repairing 40,500 Pontiac Vibes as part of Toyota airbag recall
Wed, 09 Apr 2014General Motors has confirmed to Autoblog that the Pontiac Vibe is included in Toyota's just-announced recall action. The Vibe and the Toyota Matrix share a large number of parts, including the affected cable to the airbag.
"About 40,500 Pontiac Vibes from the 2009-2010 model years are included in the Toyota recall. Toyota designed and engineered the Vibe for Pontiac. GM will service customers with these vehicles when Toyota makes the parts available," said GM recall spokesperson Alan Adler to Autoblog in an email.
The recall covers 1.3 million Toyota units in the US, including 2009-2010 Corolla, Matrix and Tacoma, the 2008-2010 Highlander, the 2006-2008 Rav4 and 2006-2010 Yaris, plus the addition of the 2009-2010 Vibe. The models all have their airbag module attached via a spiral electrical cable. The connections on this cable can be damaged when turning the steering wheel. Once broken, the airbag deactivates and the airbag warning light comes on. Toyota has an improved part, but it's still making preparations to begin repairs. It will begin notifying owners soon.
