umm.... No
You cannot convert a FWD Celica to 4wd, not unless you want to cut the back of it off & weld in the whole GT4 rear end.
If you want 4wd, sell it & buy a GT4

you CAN modify the gt4 gearbox to work but its a shitload of hassle you dont weant to deal with
your better bets are just rebuilding what you have if you plan to keep it stock - otherwise start hunting for a camry V6 box , mr2 turbo , or Beams 6 Speed setup that goes with an engine swap
And yes - Gt4 - buy one - buy one now

dont waste your time and money on a stainless steel exhaust.just get mild steel if ur looking to upgrade the exhaust on ur 91 sx. stainless steel apparently flows slightly better and of course will last longer. u wouldn't notice a difference between the two on your car.
