i was skimming through the forums and saw a topic on converting US spec celicas to all wheel drive using the all-trac drivetrain. i read that the possibility of the conversion working was slim to none. i thought it would be easier to convert it to rear wheel drive using the old jdm corolla(AE86) drivetrain. i was wondering if this was more feasible than all wheel drive.

If you guys saw the things these mini-truckers can do with some square tube and a welder, you would see just how easy it would be to get the parts in place. My only problem with it is the electronics. I am sure you could figure a way to make it work though. If it were me, I'd use a nissan 240 rear end with an LSD. but that would through off the speedo I am sure. Did any toyota short of the supra and IS come with a LSD? I would guess the 2jz rear end would be HUGE, and difficult to fit even with proper tools... but if you were building a car to do some serious racing, this would be no problem.
