  • FINALLY! My first generation Toyota Celica is up and running smooth! The 18RG engine is equipped with dual side draft weber 45's which can be difficult to get tuned. But after tinkering with them, no more spitting back and straight POWER! In this video, I hooked up my GoPro to give you guys some cool driving angles. Hope y'all enjoy the video🤟 Make sure your subscribed and leave a comment what you think👍

    I had this engine in a 1984 Toyota 4x4Truck.,it was not good. The mechanic I bought it from put dual Makuni carbs on it, they would never stay in sync. But when they were synced the engine woke up at about 3500 rpm and screamed at 6000 rpm. Not good for a truck, but it was kinda fun. I sold it and got the same truck with a 22RE. Much better.

    Man, I bet that car would feel so good to drive with the dual overhead cam. Especially since you put all that work into it too. Looks like you live in a really nice part of Oregon! Love your videos, especially this one.

    Mate throw a seatbelt on…you’re stressing me out. Instant fine and demerit points over here in Aus. Sounds good though. Looking forward to building my 18-RG. Going fuel injection though, none of this carby crap anymore for me..
