The camera man is so confident with Celica's braking prowess that he positioned himself at the line where the Celica is.

My dad bought a white manual St 162 because he couldnt find a Gt4 at the time. However about a year later he found out that his white gt4's floor was rusting so he took most of the running gear out of it and put it into his 162 but kept it front wheel drive. From there he was able to find rally parts for it due to the car being used for rallying. He fitted a group A downpipe, manifold and charge cooler aswell as a bailey dump valve and he custom built a 3" straight pipe exhaust. He also custom made a short throw gearstick. He later fitted an italvolante flat bottom steering wheel that he bought off his friend after finding it in an MR2. Aswell as this he got brake discs and pads from an st185 which had a greater surface area. He also got a ct26 turbo from a supra and machined his celica turbo to the same size to allow more air to get in and get more power out. When he took it out to a long straight stretch of road the speedometer went past 160. Unfortunately it broke a spring and he put it into the shed intending to work on it again but my little brother became sick so he was unable to fix it. The car sat for 4 years from 2012-2016 when she came back out the turbo seals were done and she was off a cylinder. He fixed it and took it to get the mot done and even though she was in a bad state she could still go. She passed the mot but a week later a guy that my dad knew bought it. My dad told him to be careful not to rev it too much and to change the oil due to the car sitting for so long. However he did not take my dads advice and wound the boost on the turbo up way to high. (around 17 psi). My dad was always careful and kept it at about 12 psi. As a result one of the pistons was damaged and then he sold it to a guy who has big plans for the car as he now wants to restore it.

A family friend had this car when it came out. He used to tell me stories about driving it in snow storms up here in Canada. He said he could drive it with ease in even treacherous conditions by just using the tip of his index finger on the steering wheel. Anyways, I always remembered his stories about this particular Celica and they can be summed up in two words: Legendary Handling.

We sure have! The two best Toyotas of the 80s have to be this and the MR2 Supercharged. I guess I'd throw in the legendary AE86 as well. And maybe the MkIII Supra. Man, Toyota was killing it in the 80s. Thanks for the awesome upload! I owned an '87 Celica GT-S. Not quite an All-Trac, but same engine minus the turbo, and more importantly it weighs 500 lbs less.

I've owned two Audi Quattros. A '97 A6 and a '01 A4 Turbo. My brother owned a '86 Celica that he brought brand new. One advantage the Celica has over the Audi is it's damn near bulletproof. Audis are great cars, but once they go bad, they go bad hard. My brother's Celica lasted 14 years, crossed the Atlantic twice, drove all over western Europe, across the US several times and racked over 200,000 miles before it finally showed it's age. I'd say the Toyota has the advantage in that category.

This car is a rare and special ! More special then the run of the mill AWD turbo cars that are the usual pick of the bunch. STI EVO... That exhaust sounds really good for a stock car and the tech loaded into it would cost a pretty penny today if Toyota remade it. Toyota made some badass cars more badass then other japan brands. Toyotas has had a hand in and made everything. Turbo AWD, Mid Engine, V8 trucks you name it. Love that about Toyota

My black All Trac was a high mileage, high maintenance, labor of love. A very solid chassis and it had a rough and tumble attitude. The most fun was driving home in the snow, accelerating like a rally racer, and passing people who were having difficulty, especially up hills. A modern version with 275-300 hp would be a total blast to drive.

When my father died, I had to drive over to the east coast of Florida to pick up his 1998 Dodge Stratus that he had on consignment at a small lot over there. When I went to pick it up I saw a 1991 Toyota Celica All-trac that just came in. Looked under the hood, saw a top mount and that distinctive 2.0 DOHC engine (Not one cam driving a slave cam as in the 5S-FE GT spec we got over here in the states) with that turbo sitting right in front...had 167,000 miles on it IIRC, I ALMOST asked the guy if he wanted to keep the Stratus and I'd take the Celica (Knowing he didn't know what he had) and I never did....Still regret it to this day....and the only time I've ever seen one in person.

I always loved the "Tokyo Xtreme Racer" series. To avoid paying fees to Toyota, the game company simply called it the ST185 and the later version the ST205. They called the series "Shutoko Battle" in Japan. Maybe this one was called the ST165... 5:10 there was a good reason to have a full sized spare. Some AWD systems can be completely destroyed in a few miles if one tire is different from the other 3. A few years later, the Ecplipse GSX came out and sold for much less than the Celica All-Trac. Unfortunately, it wasn't nearly as durable.

On a co$t verses horsepower to mass basis, the Mustang, Camaro and Firebird had all the Toyota's measures. I'm a Toyota Guy, because my wife is a Toyota AWD Gurl. Where Toyota, Mitsubishi and Mazda and Subaru really failed was in being unable to reduce weight and complexity while improving performance per dollar. A 5 mpg average fuel economy loss, a 530 pound weight gain, and U$ 8 K cost increase to get what an SHO, XR4Ti or AWD Scorpio did stock was where the problem was. BMW's 325iX did AWD with just a 165 pound penalty, and eventually, the RAV4 ended up with the same basic ST185 and 205 parts, and it really needed a turbo engine and 5 speed auto to cope with the extra 600 pounds of SUV weight. And servicing and rust, the 3SGE engined cars, such a nightmare.

All-trac, Alltrack, a good package whether it’s a Celica or Golf. I have the latter, I wouldn’t mind the Celica. That 15.9 1/4 mile is cooking for 1988 standards, it wouldn’t be hard to bring that time down with some mods. My golf should be right in the 14.0 range with its tune.

Toyota and most of Japan Manufacturers made the coolest cars of all time during the 80s and 90s. 99% of American cars didn't even come close to the Japanese engineering back then. There is a reason that Japanese cars have the best reliability and resale value. I will probably never buy another American car ever again. My 1999 Supercharged Buick Regal GS is the last one I'll ever buy.

+David S Japanese car companies are still making the best cars in the world and 100% European car makers can not even come close to their built quality.

Considering there was no mention of any American made vehicles this comment is kind of irrelevant. Do you go to every video of a Japanese car and say the same thing? This comment would have been relevant in 1992, but modem Japanese cars have lost a lot of ground in reliability.

Were these all tracs actually pretty reliable? I know they made one for Camry's as well that I always thought would be an interesting drive.

Overall the reliability is decent, as long as you're not modding the life out of it. The main things to watch out for is the fact that the engine bay heat is excessive which leads to a lot of seals failing and the fact parts for the '88-'89 are almost unobtanium at this point. The primary problems with mine(other than some significant firewall damage the PO neglected to mention and was $$$$$ to fix) have been a blower motor failure(about $40 online and half an hour to replace), the factory radiator's plastic endcaps failing(aluminum replacements are about $100 online), and the carrier bearings/U-joints on the driveshaft going bad(about $800 to rebuild at a specialist shop, I opted to put down $1250 for a single piece carbon fiber driveshaft). Another big gotcha is the clutch, which is pretty much an engine out procedure and either very pricey at a shop or a -major- undertaking if you're the DIY type.

even by 88, the audi only won and held up at the track, every customer who purchased a audi at the dealer in the mid to late 80s had nothing but reliabilty breakdown and red lite warnings on the dash. the audi still cost more in 88, but the celica all models of the 80s had none of these problems for less. something even in 88 this show host knew, to bad he didnt mention it.
