Ok ive been on this site for years.. and ive learned a ****load about cars ive had my 300zx for a year or 2 now and im ready for soemthing thats gonna blow people away. ok so rwd kicks ass i hardly drive the celica cause of this fact. so why not convert it.....i was thinking of a rear clip of an 89 supra but the drive shaft needs to bolt into something. i dont know what drive shaft can bolt up to the 3sgte (thats the engine im swaping in) or a 4age.. then i thought why not use a hachi rear clip but i bleive the drive shaft would be to short..


so without flaming me can you tell me what if any driveshafts would fit into a 3sgte or 4age thats about the length of the celica.. i mean yea its going to be a **** load of work and even more money but when its doen it would be an amazing machine. a stiff light chassis with powerful rear wheel drive action..

I'm talking about using the Corolla rear because it's light wieght. I thought it was IRS, but after some searching, I found out it's not. The car is a FWD car. The ballance is not ment to handle the RWD platform. Therefor, you should try to use as lightweight of matterials as possible. If you're going to dive into a project like that, and you're talking about money issues, you should just get out now. The Datsun 510 had a nice light rear end that had IRS. Also the BMW 320s. I seen a guy putting a nice G13B turbo in his Swift and using the BMW rear end for it. Here's a link to the car for all those who care to see.
