Because the gearbox only functions properly at certain temperature's and weather conditions. It works best at cool dry weather but in hot humidity and frigid temperature around or below freezing. Its mostly because of the not top par radiator. Keep fluids levels at the correct spot and u have a chance of getting it to Top Gear (but not top speed)

What does red button near auto gear stick on 1992 Japanese import Toyota Celica do?

It reads Shift Lock Release. When the car is in park you can only select another gear with engine running and foot on brake. This button allows you to shift in other cases. Either if your gearbox doesn't 'read' the car is running or brake is on through a fault or if you want to move the lever while car is off (installing a stereo).

Where is the speedometer sensor on a Toyota Celica?

If memory serves me correctly the speedometer is driven by a gear which is on the transmission, looking down from the top of the engine (below the airbox) should be a 2 wire sensor which is screwed into the transmission case.
