    No way will it bolt right in.
    You'll need a conversion kit from Castlemaine rod shop. I recommend a W57 over the old school celica box.

    And practically every celica box has a mad whine in 5th gear, i heard they had a problem with leaking oil to a lower then normal level and 5th gear got starved so it tended to wear out quicker then the rest.

    A 202 can break a genuine Celica box...

    A 350-400hp 308 has trouble breaking a W57. Good box for $500.

    Off the top of my head, will need conversion bellhousing, Toyota clutch plate, spigot bush, crossmember to suit, speedo cable to suit, shortened tailshaft and Toyota yoke put on the tailshaft.

    nothing! A friend of mine gave it to me, when i help him with his wb ute from a 6 cylinder to a V8. He was using my gear and gave me the blue 202 with supra 5spd. I'm thinking of selling all of my 6 cylinders stuff.
