I've searched around the forum for a while now, and I haven't come up with anything.
Is there a thread on here on how to rebuild the s54 manual transmission? Or does anyone know how to or the parts I would need? |

well I'm going to be getting another celica that has a 5spd and it has about 219k on the tranny so I want to rebuild it so that it is almost brand new. What an estimated cost on how much it would be to rebuild it?

DIY, shouldnt be more than 3-1K, just a estimate. It depends on where you buy the parts from, and what parts, and if you have the right tools. I dont think it would cost 1K tho unless you needed tools.

the parts to rebuild my e53, from toyota, was 450. included all syncros, and all seals. s54, having less syncro rings, should cost about 350-400.

if theres currently no issues with it, you're wasting your time/money. what prompted my rebuild was the fact it wouldn't go into 5th gear. at almost 300,000 miles, 1st-4th was in perfect condition. 5th gear hub was destroyed, probably ran w/o oil too long or someone managed to shove it in 1st at highway speeds, bringing the input shaft up to a scary 30,000+ rpm

unless it doesnt go in a gear, or grinds easily... you're good to go.
