I have no idea if ST141's came with a 4-speed auto, but the SA63 Celica (~1984 I think) has one which should bolt into your Corona with a bit of work; you'll probably need a custom tailshaft though.

I concur with Norbie. The Avante RT141(?) I think had 4 speeds. The SA63 does have a 4 Speed Auto. If you went ahead with the conversion, you need the shifter thingy for the inside because of the Over drive button the box and bell housing. I don't know what else is required as a mate has a 5 speed manual.
Cheers.

yes but it was not standard -
it was an option in the top of line cs-x only.
all other 2S's had a 3spd.

Don't bother with an RT14x gearbox as they bolt to an R motor (hence the R) not an S motor. Suggest you do a manual conversion, believe that there was a 5sp available in some ST141 models (just cruise a wrecekers and look at a few.. then tell them to pull the gear out of that particular car!)

just to make it clear, there was a 4sp auto for the 2S, it was an option only on the csx.

I'm certainly not debating that, I'm just pointing out that what the other dude said about the RT14x is incorrect.
