Basically, I will be swapping soon (end of summer hopefully) and I want to know if it's worth it to go with the E153 Tranny, or any other LSD combo? For you guys using just the GT tranny, do you get much 1 wheel-peel? I'll have Dr Tweak do the swap, I just want to know if it's with the extra $1200-$1750.
Thanks |

QUOTE(burneeed @ Apr 28, 2006 - 12:55 PM) [snapback]427578[/snapback] honestly I dont know how you can drive that for 2 years without the tranny breaking. I am assuming that you do not daily drive your celica? WHen I did my swap I swapped a brand new 6 puck clutch in at the time. I have put 20k on my swap and I have been through 3 trannys the enire time. When I took the trany off this time I looked at the clutch it seams decent but this time I have to go with a mr2 turbo clutch being that I am swapping for a e153. But I doubt its clutch issues. The tranny just cant hold the power. i drive the car daily at about 13psi. 1st year was spent daily driving to work and back. 2nd yr i didnt put as many miles on it, but still drove it every chance i got. what were your symptoms that made you replace the tranny 3times? 3 gt trannys in 20k miles sounds a little crazy. it almost sounds like your problem is with something other then the tranny. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
