Nik, for when your C52 does go out, I'm 99% sure that you can find someone to make you a flywheel. I have heard of people welding filler rod and filling up the bolt holes, then machining it and redrilling a different pattern, maybe that would work for you. Or maybe a company like Fidenza can just make you one that will work. Either way, once you have an E51 or E58 in there you won't have a problem.

The shop doing the build sounds top-notch, I'll bet you're paying a pretty penny for it. smile.gif

Come on down to South Carolina when I move, and I'll give you a free run on the dyno biggrin.gif

what year make ans models do those two trannies come out of i think hte e51 was in the Mr2 but not sure can you send a little info my way so i can do a little research thanks Doc


Nik, the one you're going to want is the E58 out of the Corolla Levin with the 4AGZE engine. It's already set up for FWD use, you're still going to need custom axles most likely, and flywheel of course. And mounts.

i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this.

Drive over to my house and take me for a ride! then drive home. That would help it out a bit.

gas price is way to high to be driving alot - maybe if we could chip in to pay for his gas than he'll consider driving around to meet some of us
