    IIRC that has the same EFI 4cyl engine as the 4Runner and pickup of the same year. Solid little motor.

    Yes, same engine as the pickup, 22RE. One of their best ever. The car has some of the earliest fuel injection also. Runs great.

    That was a great little engine. My dad had an '82 Celica with a 22RE. It was one of the first engines I learned to wrench on.
