Ok guys and gals.
This is the situation. As some of you may already know, i have a 2nd gen 3sgte swap in my car. Well, as of this last Friday night, i have gone through and trashed 2 celica GT tranny's. This is seriously pissing me off. So my solution is going with a MR2 turbo tranny. This is where i need some help. If you know of any dismantling yard arround your area that might carry one, or even if you know anyone like a friend selling one, PLEASE, PLEASE let me know about them and post a phone #. Thanks in advance. sphinx. |

I been looking awhile for one, hard to come by. There was one in an MR2 forum that needed rebuilding, but it was awhile ago.
You will also need other parts to change the linkage to FWD and axles also. G'luck. -------------------- |

i went to the MR2oc.com boards and found a lot of people selling them. I'm actually driving up to San Francisco this weekend to go pick it up.
Thanks everyone. |

Yet another (TWO!) example(s) of the weakness of the GT tranny for the 3sgte swap. I think your experience should just about end the debate about whether this tranny is worthy of power.
-------------------- QUOTE(lagos @ Jul 10, 2006 - 1:55 PM) [snapback]454118[/snapback] i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this. |

The FACT of the matter is, the GT tranny is TRASH.
I would know. So dont even bother using it. |
