I was looking around and saw that the 5th gen GT celicas have a FF 5SFE engine and Phantom Grip makes a LSD for that application.

I was wondering if that LSD would fit onto the 6th Gen 5SFE tranny.

HEHE, if it does, my tires won't spin much with the 3SGTE swap.

a good idea is to swap in a mr2 turbo tranny with lsd. you can pick one up for around 600$ and you get the benefit of better gearing that the mr2 trubo provides.

yeah but then I would have to get custom axels and the bellhousing might be a pain. its 600 but the price could sky rocket after the tranny is actually on the car.

I would rather go with the $200-300 LSD.

Also, I am not entirely sure if I will evantually go AWD....Just need a LSD solution for a while.

It should fit... I believe all of the 5sfe trannies on the Celicas are the same.

First off... you won't need custom axles. I've already stated in several posts what's needed: MR2 Turbo inner shafts and V6 Camry outter shafts.

As for the Phantom Grip... it's not a true LSD unit. GB's have been started in the past, but it fell through. If you want something reliable... get a true LSD unit... basically, you get what you pay for homie.
