They are the same e52 gearbox. so the whole talk from people who have never done the conversion or compared a 3s-fe to 2vz-fe gearbox are just taking guesses. My st205 grp a powered sv21 is about to come out of the workshop being backed up by my STANDARD reco sv21 5 spd box. I forsee no troubles with this box as i have used the uprated toyata syncros (a toyota parts and service upgrade to prevent failure), and had a broken selector fork replaced. The main trouble with these e series boxes is bending the pressure plates in the clutches and not being able to shift correctly if at all, and destruction of original syncros, most commonly 2nd and 3rd. rebuild an old sv21 box and you should fair well on the dollar side of things. or do the same thing with you st162 box which is practically the same thing anyway. I'm not having a stab by the way frank, not by any means, it's just alot of speculation goes on with these fwd 3s conversions and there's not too many people out there that are 100% sure, which is exactly what people like benmeyer need... people that are 100% sure. I've been there myself without the solid info and it can be nothing but a head ache and sometimes more costly chasing items that were more easily accessable and less expensive from something/where else.
