That's definitely a 5S-FE. 2.2L 4-cylinder S-series motor. Same as a lot of the 90s Celicas. I had a 3S-FE powered 1988 Camry for two weeks. It had 350,xxx kms on it, and it leaked water from the water pump like a sieve, to the tune of four litres per day. It was infuriating. I sold it the moment we...

HP/weight, coupled with torque wherever you were in revs. Torque converters don't help, but at that speed it shouldn't have been a big deal. Prodigal's right, though -- you can't lose unless you agree to! I had a creepy new Mustang following me on the highway while I was rushing home - not just behi...

For some of us, it's just not practical to get hit from behind. Even if it's no financial strain on us, since we're not paying for it, I'm getting sick of having to find a new car every time someone wrecks one of mine. Coming into a stop sign, I will do one of two things. 1) Downshift through each g...

When I got my car, it had a horrible ticking noise from the engine. (Not rod knock or anything, don't worry, I had it checked out.) The best guess anyone could make was that it was my timing chain, which still appeared fine. I took my car out one night and ran it with a 1JZ '91 Supra, and a Spoon'd ...

Be nice to Toyota drivers. They're not 'funny' really. Most of them are aging soccer moms who don't want to pay for gas, and get the kids around in a nice, cheap, comfortable car. And obviously, I think we're forgetting about the AE86 GT-S and the AE85 SR5 when we make fun of Corollas. Then we get i...
