I would like to ask you guys about a Celica Im about to purchase. Its a 92 with the 1.6L engine. What code name is it? And is this one of Toyotas good reliable engine? This will be :oops: for the wife to drive, so no tuning here.

92 is the 5th gen and its the ST model, the chassis code is ST182 and the engine code is 4AFE. Its a DOHC motor with 103HP and 101ft/lbs. Good reliable motor, but its not really tunable in the Celica, the cars a little on the portly side.

Edit: Chassis code is ST180, thanks avoid.

I thought the 4AFE is 107HP Deep! Or am I wrong?

It might be a lil higher in the 'Rolla, but I'm pretty darn sure.

the 4a-fe untill 93 is 103hp and the 93 and up is 105 i think the differnce is from the intake manafold design, older model has the 1 piece manafold and the newer one is the 2 piece. The celicas only came with the 1 piece manafold as far as i know but the corrolas got the other one.
but it wont stop that 103 hp celica from pushing 135 mph.

That silver Celica has a 4AFE! That engine looked very familiar, although i relocated my battery to the trunk now to make space for a full air intake system..

DaksGT · 01-28-2003, 02:00 PM

As opposed to a half air intake system?

I had an iceman intake on the celica but i had no increase in HP from the 4afe. Someone with internal mods could have had gains but a stock internal 4afe the iceman is a waste of money.
