Search for other posts on this subject - definately discussed before.
Simply put - the 3sge and 3sgte are nearly identical. Same head and block layout. So any parts for the same gen 3sgte will bolt ri...

1.8L to 2.2L??? - 6G Celicas Forums

Why is your motor loosing a lot of oil? Bad valve seals, or a leak somewhere?
7A's are prone to valve seal problems, which is pretty easy to fix cheaply.

The best option would be the one from the Celica SSIII Beams 3S-GE - already has LSD and the gearing is supposed to rock.

The US version's didn't have an LSD, but I believe there are aftermarket options available.

I'd say the S series transmission in our GT Celica's and non-turbo MR2's would be a good trans - if you want lots of torque and low-end power. This can be mated to the 3S easily, and can handle a dec...

If a 5S tranny fits a 3S-GTE and the 3S-GE tranny fits the 3S-GTE you would assume that the 3S tranny will bolt up to a 5S engine.

I have never had to replace a hub, and I cant imagine why you would ever need to. Its like replacing a lamp cause the bulb burns out.
BTW, the CV joints are part of the axel.

Check your tailpipe - worn valve seals are very common with the 7A. The oil passes through the valves and coats the exhaust - leaving a oily residue that easy to see at the tail-pipe.
