Hello all, I have a REALY big problem with my celica overheating. It’s an 83’ 22RE celica coup. It has been overheating for a long time now despite my efforts. Here are a list of the things I have replaced on it to try and fix the problem. New thermostat, all the hoses , new radiator, new water pump, new fan clutch, new head piece (that was a fun job). It was running fine during the winter but now summer is coming on and it’s already starting to run hot again. I know it’s not the gauge because I can feel the difference in the heat coming off the block. I am at my end here I cant figure out what else it could be! Please help. ANYONE

I just bought a 83 Toy for my grandson. Turns out it has the same problem. Some one told me it is the cylatic converter. supposdely is is clogged and backing heat up into the engine. something to check

A clogged cat. convertor won't cause your engine to overheat. Just lose power. Try the fixes the OP tried.
