Guys,
Did some research, and apparently the transmission that comes with the 94+ SS2 Celica (the one with the super-strut) is not a S54, but an E56 transmission. I've known about this trans for a couple of years now, but I never really thought anything of it til now - this is an E series trans mated to a 3S in a 6G gen FWD Celica!!! What's the possibility that the stock axles for this car would fit the MR2's E153 trans - giving us the perfect length axle? I've swapped between the super-strut and standard suspension on my car, and I can say that the hub placement is the same - so that wont be an issue. Now the part that worries me - this trans is also offered in other (non performance) cars ,though with different gearing and such. A few of these cars are available stateside: 88-90 AE95 Corolla 90-93 AE95 Corolla wagon. 95+ AE103 Corolla 94+ SXA Rav 4 If I get some time, I may go out and pick up an axle from one of these cars and see if it will fit the MR2's splines. If it works, I'll see what pricing Jeff @ Champion Toyota can get. Here are the part numbers if anyone is interested: drive shaft, RH : 43410-20690 SS2 Celica w/SSS drive shaft, RH: 43410-20700 SS2 Celica w/SSS w/ABS This post has been edited by scothaniel: May 20, 2007 - 10:20 PM -------------------- Scott

91 Camry axles will not fit, the splines are different and will not fit in the hubs.

Not true, i change my axel two days ago, and i got a 91 v6 camry axel. It worked perfectly. The 92+ years are A) too long B) and have Fatter Splines that will not fit into the 6gc hub. I am 100% this is accurate. My set up: 92 mr2 non lsd tranny - E-153 92 mr2 Inner axles or half shafts 91 V6 Carmry outter axles set up works perfectly. Also just so you know 90 and 91 v6 camry axle is the same thing  QUOTE(1900 @ May 21, 2007 - 5:21 PM) [snapback]560206[/snapback] all you have to do is change the outer c.v. joints and they should work. Too much work, go with my set up its way easier and effective.  |
