celica st/ corolla, upgrading the wifes car Options

[toyota123]

Does anyone know definitely weather the 1.8l st uses the same tranny as the 1.8l 7th gen corolla? I ask because I want to know if the cc axles will be the same.I plan to upgrade the suspension to the celica 5 lug all wheel disc brake set up because after a nice weapon r intake a set of headers and a high flow cat I just think The standard suspension isn't going to do the trick ..... The car is much more aggressive now.
Sorry if I posted in the wrong section wasn't sure if I should post here or in engine section

thanks Joe

if its a c series trans, it will bolt up, only in fwd format. the rwd like the 86 corolla obviously will not work. if im not mistaken a c52 and c53 are the same just the 53 is more refined.

the 2zzge and 4age blacktop 6 speed are the exact same transmission. the 2zzge has no lsd and the blacktop has a lsd. the bellhousing is different between them
^^^ this is the same case for the 85-90 4age vs the 94-97 7afe engine.
