looks like 32 and 41.
which i think is the oxygen sensor and the A/F learning control...

I'd just try resetting the ECU. The A/F learning control is probably related to the O2 sensor.
You may also want to replace the O2 sensor.

i'll probably just get a new one. any good places to get oem stuff for less than a dealership. i alway use 1sttoyotaparts.com since they are wholesale, and only sell very close to cost.
so, how do i reset the ecu? i just pull the EFI fuse on my celica, but this car has some different stuff on it, so let me know

I recommend SubaruGenuineParts.com. I had a local dealership parts guy that gave me parts at his cost, and SubaruGenuineParts.com was always very close to how low his cost was.
To clear the codes, do this:
Start with both connectors disconnected, start the engine, allow it to warm up, then turn it off. Next, connect the test mode connectors (green T-shape) and the check mode connectors (black T-shape). Turn ignition to ON position without turning on engine. At this point if the check engine light does not come on, it is faulty and must be fixed before continuing. Depress accelerator pedal to floor, return to half throttle and hold for two seconds, then release. Start the engine.Now the light can blink in two different ways. If everything checks out so far, it will blink to indicate a number 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, or 08. If a problem is already detected, it will blink according to the chart below. Either way, your next step will be to drive the car with both sets of connectors connected. You must drive over 7 mph for at least one minute, and shift up to 4th gear if you have a manual tranny. Now, either you will discover your trouble codes, or you will have none. When the CEL blinks the all-clear, then the codes are erased from memory.
Be sure to do the accelerator pedal thingy. I usually forget that, and it won't clear the codes unless you do it.
