W50 = correctomundo. You could prolly get a covnersion for the W55 - 57 - 58 but why bother? It is afterall a 202.

They still use them.
Celica Steel box = W50
Celica Alloy box = T50

I've seen a few T50's used behind 202's they all suffer from a broken input shaft. Go with the tried and trusted conversion of a W50 from a 1976-81 Celica.

the only reason why people use the T50 behind it is cause they are so cheap to buy... basically if it breaks, take it out and replace it with another that costs like $100 if that at times... also you can get a few T50s that are stuffed in some form and make a box, ie, have 10 stuffed T50s and you can end up with 3/4 good ones hence they go for the cheaper weaker box... also it is lighter and you can get a few runs out of them before blowing
the W50 is a tad harder to come by and more expensive, it is the better option definately as is stronger... though it is heavier, and not likely your gonna have a few lying round...

My worked 202 has an alloy case T50, which hasn't busted yet. It has a CRS bellhousing, but Dellow did them too. As fade-e noted, they are cheap and relatively easy to find, and usually last ok if you upgrade the layshaft bearing.
Actually, mine has been showing a reluctance to remain in 5th lately ... might be time to swap it out. Or look for a W50
