MR2 Tranny to the 5SFE Options

[turboinduction]

OK OK

I just posted in the clutchmasters thread with a little mr2 note at the end. Then I thought "Hrmmm, I guess I really never clarified if the MR2 turbo LSD tranny can bolt to the side of my beautiful 5SFE, Hrm indeed" So I thought "OH boy, I get to use the Search button like Lil Billy showed me from the Steam video" I clicked the search button, but to no avail. Why because MR2 is 3 letters long and I have no clue how else to search for it. So, here I am, lonely and sitting in front on my computer. I know I'll talk to Shid, he's got his fingers stuck in almost everything and should know something. Well Shid said he too would like a Mr2 tranny but was unsure and then told me to go read the 3SI thread in the OT for a good laugh. After reading that, I decided it was time to create a new thread.

So... Can the mr2 turbo tranny bolt to a 5SFE. Because this would give me something other than the crappy S54 and LSD and available clutch upgrades from ACT (the bestest brand ever IMO). So anyone with knowledge is welcome to answer.

If you respond with Search harder, your a moron, do a 3SGTE swap, or anything else stupid, Shid will eat you. .......... I'm serious.

What about thoughts of a 3sge trans on a 5sfe?

I myself can stand driving over 60mph due to the car reving to 4k+ in 5th. Ive been thinking about starting a GB for a longer 5th gear for the s-54.

That would be a great idea. I would love it if 4th gear had just a little more length on it, and if 5th had much more length to it.

As it is from the factory, its probably meant to be run on the highway at about 55 miles an hour because at the time the Japanese engineers were told American speed limits were 55mph. But now around here, you have to cruise around 70 or more....so really, our transmissions are just obsolete.

What would it take to get custom gear ratios? Or better yet, just look into the gear ratios of the Solara transmission, MR2 transmission, etc. in comparison to the S-54 ratios either to use in ours or just use the whole tranny.
