1999 Solara 5 Speed V6 Transmission Swap 1994 GT, V6 Solara M/T Swap 94-99 GT (5S Removed) Options

[eazy2001x]

Hi,

I could a lil help here.. My car origionally had a 5S-FE 2.2 engine and transmission. I just got a 1999 Solara V6 Transmission and I’m looking to install it. The 5S-FE was removed and replaced with a Gen 3 3S engine. At This Point I have just the transmission with nothing else..

I looking to confirm what engine mounts and bracket combination i need to get this done. Any information would help..

From what I understand after reading is that I can use the 94-99 ST205 engine mounts / brackets for the front back and top and I will be fine. Then use the stock ST205 engine mounts (including the timing belt side). Along with that I will need to order a set of ST205 shifter cables.

i also saw somewhere that I would have to use the cross member from the ST205 can someone please confirm!!!???

Thanks in advanced,

Also for the Axle configuration he posted the following...

My axels consist of :

91 MR2 Trubo INNER shaft
91 Camry V6 OUTER shaft

bold them together, pop them in the tranny and in the hub, and you're done.

I’m going to be using a 1999 Toyota Solara transmission so I’m assuming that the 93+ Toyota mr2 Axels will work fine. But to my knowledge they don’t matter because they are all made for the E153 transmission. The only exception is LSD or not.

PLEASE CONFIRM THIS FOR ME.. THANKS A MILLION!! :-)

No you misread what I said. I didnt say people dont, I said I dont know IF anyone is currently using it. And as far as I know, the ST205 rear tranny bracket wont fit the E153 (by the look of pictures).

Yeah sphinx says that the ST205 & GT rear mounts work, but they're different, which now confuses me again.
