Okay so I have a 98GT with a 5S-FE in it. I'm looking to eventually put some power in it or do an engine swap in the future. For now I am sick of going down the high way cruising at almost 4K rpms.
I have read a lot about the E153 Tranny. I also was wondering if anyone has done an S51 swap as well. Basically to summarize what I think i know.. For E153: ST205 Mounts, Cables, and Linkage Axels- I have seen a lot of combos, i know if its out of an MR2 i need the same year inners, but i have seen that the E153 is in certain year solaras too. So could I use those inners, and for outters i see the 91 Camry seems to be most readily available. What is the Mr2 year bracket, 90-95? And anyone have any info in doing a S51 or if i even should consider it? Thanks a lot everyone! |

You have a manual tranny and you're at 4k on the highway? I have a auto tranny and when I'm cruising at 80mph on the highway, I'm just above 3k, doing 65mph it's at about 2.5k-ish. You must have something wrong with your tranny lol |

You must have something wrong with your tranny lol you will do 4k at 80mph on the highway mike, i do it with mines and you will do it with ur tranny sway as well lol the auto tranny is different, isnt it a 4 speed tranny? so the gear ratios are different then on a 5spd This post has been edited by Ted95: Jan 10, 2011 - 5:04 PM -------------------- st205 powered ss3 coupe
