If i was to get a t-series (drum brakes) out of a celica or what ever for my 4ag ae86, what ratio's are better, what ratios are available, is there a auto t-series with higher ratio.
I only ask as i may take it off the road and use for drag and the maybe weekend war-fare. or am i better of with something completly different, say a hilux diff.
If i was going to use a t-series from a celica, would i need new axles to suit what ever lsd i use or are they adaptable.
Cheers fella's
P.S before you say search, i did already and i didnt find the answer i was looking for.

Sprinter Kouki axles are larger than Sprinter Zenki axles.
Zenki centres (including LSD) are interchangeable with early Celica centres, while Kouki are not.
Wayne Stephenson's Celica production data at http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/stepho/ce lprod.htm indicates that 4.111:1 T differential is by far most common for Australian market but specifically local TA23 with automatic transaxle featured either 4.111:1 T or optional 4.3:1 T final ratio. This ratio should be rare given that to buy a 4.3-equipped Celica the buyer would have to specify;
- Celica with the smaller engine (RA23 with 18R was simultaneously available), then;
- three-speed automatic transmission (enough said), then;
- specifically request the shorter diff ratio so the three-speed auto would make 5000RPM at 100 on the freeway.
Who would?
Note that anecdotal evidence suggests that local early TA22 was fitted with D type final ratio as described at the above link for A20 Celica. Note that other markets received early Celicas with T diff ratios as long as 3.727 (but with bigger R motors).
