front drive celica to rear wheel, can you do it Options

[pyro0694]

i was skimming through the forums and saw a topic on converting US spec celicas to all wheel drive using the all-trac drivetrain. i read that the possibility of the conversion working was slim to none. i thought it would be easier to convert it to rear wheel drive using the old jdm corolla(AE86) drivetrain. i was wondering if this was more feasible than all wheel drive.

that is similar to what some of my friend had to do to their G-bodies(monte carlo/cutlass) the fram has a tendency to twist when put under too much stress from motor.

This is getting even closer to turning a celi rw or awd w/o complications.
boxes in the chevy's work so I believe this would work also.

only prob is bottom of car has to be modified to hold a new rearend, right?

what rearend and tranny would be used for rwd?

Old style supra? a corrolla rear end?

what is the lengths of the rearend to see if it wouldn't be too wide? I can try to get info from someone at toyota.

I still think it would be awesome to have a rwd celica. It would go back to its root from the 1st gen celi. Guys we should make this a sticky and contribute info as we find it, and eventually when we think of everything we need and find the problems to solve before, then someone could build a rwd celi.

I do know a few shops around here that do work on drag cars.
