Well with super's recent problem it is almost a certain fact the stock GT tranny will crush under the pressure, so what options does everyone have? Could everyone please list in possible transmisions that can take the power? include what car they came from, and possibly their designation code. Maybe even list tranies that will bolt but wont last, I'll make a list in this post and keep it updated, maybe worthy of a sticky in this forum. Also include if the tranny comes with a LSD or if its available for it... Thanks.
Ready for the power (this can take almost anything you throw at it) 1. Camry v6/ Solara Code: E-153 2. MR2 Turbo Code: E-153 (used with 3s-gte) LSD included on 94+ Who Knows (bolts to a 3S-GTE, but it could work and it could fail) 1. Celica GT Code: S-54 (used with 5s-fe) 2. Celica SSII/SSIII Code:?? (used with 3s-ge) LSD available AM (this could be a different version of the s54!?) 3. Curren Code: ?? (used with 3s-ge) (this also is a different version of the s54, rumored to be stronger) Cannot be Used (bolts to a 3S-GTE but won't work in a FWD Celica) 1. Altezza Code: ?? (used with 3s-ge) for RWD This post has been edited by Chrobis: Mar 15, 2004 - 1:11 AM |

Yes
That's what I'm trying to figure out... if it was changed, I'm pretty sure Toyota would've used an E-series tranny... but I saw a post with an is300 owner saying he has a S54... it could be that he's not sure of what he's talking about... or they probably do in fact use the S54... Maybe the S54's used with the 3S-GE's are built stronger... dunno...
There was a reason why I posted that link to Celica.net But to add... NO you do not need to change the bell housing with a E153 ... and you may need to use a different speed sensor (i.e. the one that comes with a clip) ... and the axle setup they discussed is different from mine ... I believe those instructions were intended for a 5th gen swap... axles-wise (maybe) ... but overall... it'll still work... The bellhousing is basically the outer shell: bellhousing This post has been edited by kuya1284: Aug 28, 2003 - 7:56 PM |
