MR2 Turbo gearbox Options

[jeffrosie]

As the title says, I want to use an addapted MR2 turbo box with LSD on my 202 droptop which has just got a rev3 3SGTE swap.
Has anybody else done this??
What driveshafts do I use - my biggest hurdle??

yes, its becoming more and more common.

you will need to convert the tranny for FWD use with camry or solara shifter arms, st205 mounts, brackets and shifter cables, mr2 inner axles, alltrac (st185) outter axles. you may or may not need to use a 3/4" spacer on the drivers axle.

there are a few threads about converting to this setup, you can use the search button here on the forum to find more info as needed.

Thanks for that pressure2
Engine is in - using std ST205 mounts all around, gearbox and engine.
Gearbox is a hybrid - MR2 & ST185. MR2 box was broken, so raided it for the LSD and the bellhousing as it already had the plate on where the transfer box would normally go on a GT4. Mechanics are from the GT4 with the GT4 final drive. Standard ST205 clutch used. Shifter cables are std ST202, but shifter is ST205 for shorter shift.
ST185 brakes to be fitted soon.

So I need to get MR2 turbo inner axles and ST185 outer axles.


Any further advice??
