[SgtRauksauff]

Yikes!! sounds bitchin!!

I hope I'll be happy with just the stock ST205 gearset. We'll find out, I guess. It arrived from Hong Kong last friday...

A how to on rebuilding/installing ATS cages in the toyota CV's. Im fairly certain this goes for the rear axles as well.

I can't remember if i ever posted any ratios. here are the gear ratios for the trans i am using:

2000 Camry V6:
First Gear Ratio (:1) 3.230
Second Gear Ratio (:1) 1.913
Third Gear Ratio (:1) 1.258
Fourth Gear Rato (:1) 0.918
Fifth Gear Ratio (:1) 0.731
Final Drive Axle Ratio (:1) 3.93

The standard MR2 Turbo and Celica Alltrac ratios are very similar, the only difference being the final drive at 4.29:1

PS if that video is interesting or funny i'll have to watch it later at home where i have sound...

"Joshg, this thread is awesome!"




Really bro, excellent work, give you million props for the high resolution clean images, superb build and going above and beyond on this tranny swap. It is crazy how big is that transmission.

Will certainly follow up.

Lol, thanks. As i said in the post of those photos, they are not my photos i meerly grabbed them off another forum i frequent.

Jon - Same diff gears, im changing the pinion + crownwheel off the centre diff so the front diff and rear diff stay the same.

I am also getting cnc selector forks.

[therieldeal]

did any of these cars come with a 3.933 rear end?

[therieldeal]

GT4/alltrac ratios and other specs:

http://www.alltrac.net/specs/GT4Specs.htm

as it turns out, ALL alltracs use the same rear end ratio. so whether you are running a 4.285 ratio in an alltrac box or a 3.933 ratio in a camry box.. you can bolt up any alltract front/center diff and rear transfer for awd. the front/center diff runs a 1:1 ratio into the rear transfer, which runs a 1:2.928 ratio to the driveshaft, and a 2.928:1 ratio at the rear end.... so it all works out. even aftermarket final drives are no problem since you technically are running the rear end off a 1:1 ratio from the front final drive.

[FE3-323]

so should i grab that ST165 jon just for the transferr bits?

[therieldeal]

ST165 has an open center diff instead of a viscous coupling, and the earliest (worst) synchro design. your call...

[joshg123]

Yeah so essentially my final drive ratio is that of the RC box, 3.933 final drive with the rest of the ratios the same

[scortadict]

i just got that tranny, its from japan, its from a celica but not sure which model.



i'm going to run fwd, i know i need the plate but do i need to change the diff because it look like its got a lsd inside
