You'd have better luck posting it on mr2 or even Camry/Solara forums. There are very few people on here who would need it, as it would pretty much require someone swapping a 3STGE. Mating this to a 5SFE is a PITA due to needing to make a carrier bracket. Bolts straight into a V6 Camry/Solara, and turbo mr2 (with case swap).

Also, going price for these is about $400, but can be bought for as little as half that if need be. If one is lucky enough to find one in pick-n-pull, then it's $80 (very rare, but that's how I got my S51 box)
Yours being "rebuilt" does not say much without details of the rebuild. Did it have a broken gear that got replaced with the rest of the box left as is, or did somebody put new quality synchros and bearings in and got all the clearances in spec? Makes a big difference.

With prices of scrap where they're at now, you'll be lucky to get $5 for it at the yard. Hang onto it for some time if you can - car parts can take months to sell until the right buyer comes along.

Just trying to help you out. I would be interested if I didn't already have a 3SGTE with an LSD E153 in my 6gc.

no worries man thanks for the heads up. as far as info wise i dont have much, all i kno is its rebuilt/non lsd/ v6 solara. i would love to hold onto it but with 4 cars that cant even use this trans i have no choice but to jus junk it. yeh i know its goin to waste but i need the space to work on my other cars esp since winter is coming. I was going to put it on a 3sgte swapped but sold that car.
