An RWD celica i assume....nice
although i cant speak for the same cavity being there on the SX one other option to consider is the widebody nature of the gt4...
the difference is most likely in the panelling, however the gt4's might have a wider track aswell...something to check...
good luck dude

was under my mate's 184 the other day
CLEARLY the floor pan is built with GT4s in mind. The exhaust is swimming in a massive hole and there is a big ass dent in the firewall where I can only assume a larger gbox/dif is meant to go
I can't give specifics tho'

Its different. You cant even bolt ST185 seats into a ST184. You will notice on a GT4 they have a "drop tank" in the rear to accomadate the diff and both have a different boot layout. This can even be seen in the way the spare tire wells were changed.
Im sure this a way but I really doubt it will be a bolt on event.

puffys right ..
for the amount of engineering required to get the rear end in youd be better off just buying a Gt4 ..
Sorry to shatter your idea dude - but thats reality's hard lesson

The gearbox question is a tricky one too.
