No i mean the 2.5L 4cyl with the new 6 speed. New boxy TC will be getting same set up and aftermarket will
of course cater to it.. Will fit into a celica with minimum work to mounts.. almost straight bolt in mr2 mk1. Marc (owner of mk1 and guy who makes 2gr kit for sw20 mr2's) loves the new 2.5l / 6 spd.. Said it pulls all the way to redline just like 2gr. 2gr swap into a celica will be someday be done but since it is even taller than 1MZ hood clearance will be issue..may require a modified oil pan to lower a bit.. I just received my ea61 6 speed from the UK for my mr2 2gr swap ..only $550 shipped from UK with 12k on it .. Same gearbox as Lotus Evora but catch is the bellhousing is diff (no starter mount) and the evora one cost $1700 so will be some fab to add a starter mount. I was supposed to go to that race but been sick looked like a lot of fun.. Heard racing was clean besides one incident
