Fitment is the whole point of this book: the 2002 Toyota Celica factory service and repair manual is tied to one model year, to the 1.8L four in both of its factory forms, the 1ZZ-FE and the 2ZZGE, and to the specific trim sitting in your driveway, so each specification and tightening sequence in it is the one Toyota issued for that car rather than a number that merely comes close from an adjacent year.

Known issues on the 2002 Celica. One recall is on federal record for this model year, and it covers the gasoline fuel system: the fuel tank check valve, which sits in the fuel tank inlet pipe, can separate from that pipe and fall down into the fuel tank, a condition that may result in a fire in the presence of an ignition source. Owners have filed 37 complaints for the year and Toyota has issued 60 technical service bulletins.
Whether you are inspecting the fuel tank inlet pipe and its check valve after that recall, working through one of those 60 bulletins, or carrying out scheduled maintenance on the 1.8L four, it holds you to Toyota's own procedure and the right figure for a 2002 Celica.

THIS CONDITION MAY RESULT A FIRE IN THE PRESENCE OF AN IGNITION SOURCE.
