Heyz, New to dis shiet.
Currently driving a celica 91 with a 3sge(ss-2) engine off a 95 japnaese st202 celica. Right now i still got the original gearbox off the 5sfe and tryin to get a hold of the st202 one. Can anyone tell me wat the ratios of the st202 gearbox are? and if there is something better to use instead? Thanks
btw if anyone got rims 16" or 17" 5X100 38 offset for sale email me cheers!

hey mate you are my new best friend, you have done what i want to do to my car, 91 celica with a 202 3SGE, i thinking about using the import gear box on my conversion tho.
there are also 6 speed 3sge gearboxes getting around, i want one!!!!! 6 gear is such a nicer gear on the high way.
so
when did you do thee conversion?
what did it cost ya?
who did it for you?
and any insurance info you can give me would be awesome too.

Yeh i did it about a month ago,
cost about $3600 but that was with a new engine mount, new drive shafts and new clutch as well. so yeh for the engine conversion roughly $1500 for the engine (20000kms) and $1500 for labour @ JAPCO in SA.
As for insurance i was with RAA and when i told them that i had done the conversion they refused me insurance same with every other company in the yellow pages except for the pricey ones. However in the end RAA allowed me to renew my current policy at the same price with the same arrangements (so yeh i dunno how the fuck the system works).
The only problem now is that it takes a while for the power to come in @ 6000-7000rpm as the ratios are too long.
BTW i heard about the 6 speed gearboxes do you know wat type and what model the come from, i heard its also got LSD???
