Thumbs up for having the balls to use MS
Why did you choose MS3 over MS2? Simply because it's better in every way? -------------------- 1993 Celica GT Coupe - sold

Always wanted MS in my project car, even when i was thinking about a 3sgte... then esp when i decided 3vzf"T"e MS3 is much much nicer. better logging, more out/inputs, sequential injection, etc... i just.. want it!! anywayy i have to send off my drivers inner stub to be machined for LSD. SUPPOSEDLY non lsd stubs will work on the passenger(long axle) side, ill test that out and make a new thread to settle whats needed for e153 for good (cause everyone seems to ask often..) -------------------- QUOTE "And, as always, your friendship, help, and dedication to the advancement of Texas Celica dominance is GREATLY appreciated.

I'm going with MS2 on mine. Already got it, friend is assembling it and is going to put it in the car... I don't feel comfortable doing it, and he's been working with them since he was 22, now he's 28 so he knows them pretty well. You're going to love MS3... I would even go as far as putting a car PC into the car instead of gauges

Passenger axle is tooo short.. will need looks like a 1 inch spacer. and the drivers (trans side for you RHD guys) needs machined to fit in the LSD.
heres my trans and axle setup so far: E53 (92-93 v6 trans) 95 JDM MR2 Turbo viscous limited slip (the stock LSD option) Stock inners (there are 3 varients, Stock non LSD, stock LSD, and something in the middle... test fit your axles and ship off the one(s) that doesnt fit to chico race works or koracing to get machined to fit) ST185 outter shafts (save the stock outter shaft inner CVs to machine for spacers if needed) stock bearing carrier(with the mount part cut off) ST205 rear mount GT front mount with kirk poly insert GT trans side mount. (needed a piece cut off and flipped 180* to fit) waiting on a clutch line too and itll be ready to tear up some tires -------------------- QUOTE "And, as always, your friendship, help, and dedication to the advancement of Texas Celica dominance is GREATLY appreciated.

Stephen your recent photos aren't viewable coming from Facebook. Can you repost? I didn't see them in the FB 6GC group, either.
