ok, ok.. for real now.. i dont want to here any mess about "just swap to a manual".. i have many reasons for keeping the car an auto.. my car is finally back on the road, and wrapping up phase one of my project. and in preparation for phase four of the project i am starting this thread to investigate the possibility of getting an LSD for the ST Auto trans. seeing as there are SOOOOOO many parts that are shared in the Toyota transitions. i am hoping that one of the many trans series' LSD's will fit in the A246E or perhaps from another trans.. the load will be light(ish) and the cooling system that i am building up for my auto will be perfect for one of the lighter multi-disk type LSD's over one of the more expensive gear type LSD's (like quafes ATB), so i would prefer a multi-disk type.. (if i have a choice)

the car will be turbo'ed DD, and week end Auto-x'er.. so the need for the additional grip will be needed.

has any one worked with this trans or ever tried to mess with it at all? or even had it apart and able t compare internals? any help and constructive input would be greatly appreciated.

c52 transmission can't handle much power. that is the manual transmission fitted on st celica's. 200whp is the max hp I'd put on a c52 transmission or any auto st transmission. The c52 transmission handles 90whp in stock form.(so it would be the same as an auto)

is this hear say? or do you have any actual proof? links to threads supporting this statement? personal experience that you could share with us?

and no, in the manor you are speaking with, the C52 would not be the same as the A246E.. auto transmissions are allot more forgiving than their manual counterpart.. an auto trans is essentially a giant hydrolic pump.. and does not go through nearly as much shock loading in year as a manual trans does in a day of regular driving. and the torque converter it-self offers a sort of safety measure, a point of slippage.
