for those of you who have done the 3sgte swap
did you use the camry v6 trans ? i was wondering if they came in stick cuz i never seen a stick camry ever !
I think they do a long time ago, but it was rare, in japan most camrys had stick.
Anyways the transmission is E-153 and you can get it off a JDM camry solara, V6 camry, and you probably use a 3SGE transmission
on the jdm cars the trans bolts up on the opposite side than US, right? so when installing say a... 3s-gte from a RHD car into one of ours you have to keep it bolted to the same side? so how is it possible to use a made for LHD tranny on a jdm engine in our cars?

Believer, you'll leave her, in leaving them allNo but I don't buy itLike anything you do, as anyone you areCause I'm...Ten Speed, of God's Blood & Burial
if you go the 3sge route make sure that you get the one that has the starter exit the bell housing on the driverside of the vehicle cuz the one where the starter exits to the passanger side wont work with the 3sgte motor.. thats the boat im in right now.. you can fix this problem with a 5sfe bell housing.

i thought your car was awd and you used the 5th gen tranny for you 6gc???
why would you be using the 3s-ge tranny?
94-99 celica ss-1 ss-ii and ss-iii
also the toyota curren
the ss models are easier to find though

hey kuya... do you even own a celica??? cuz all I ever see you post is stuff dissin other peoples cars...
GT2GT4... I have posted quite a bit about how I decided it ditch the GT4 rearend out of my car, I made the decision based on the fact that at 120+ the car would start to pull to the side and I really couldnt take it over 140 safely. after weighing my options and a nice offer for the rearend parts I decided to remove the setup and go FWD for a while, I wanna break 160 in my celica this year and I wasnt gonna do it with the AWD,Next winter I plan on tearing apart the motor agian and redoing the internals.. If I can afford it the JUN stroker kit and Greddy t78 turbo kit... maybe at the time I will lookin to having a shop align a new rear end for me.. am keeping the AWD trans so who knows.... time and money - spent WAY too much of both already on this car.

Wasn't aware that JUN made a stroker for the 3sgte, thought it was only the 5s.
And LOL about Kuya, you bet he has a Celica. I saw it a LONG time ago when I was at ELP getting some stuff done. Check the swap list that was made a sticky.
yea man Kuya has been a lot more helpful, trustworthy and proven than you have. Ive seen pics of his JDM conversion, his ST205 front clip, rare parts (sideskirts) etc. and the various stages of his celica. The only pic i have ever seen of your car is the one in your sig w/ boatloads of vinyl and a parkbench strapped to the back. Nothing to back up your 3sgte conversion, awd setup or anything of the sort. Before calling someonebody else out, make sure you can prove what you have been telling people.
to neverstop: oh i must've been away and never read those threads..sorry if i came off like a dick
to rivo: ya the 3s-gte stroker kit IS for the 3s-gte not the 5s-fe but the engine needs to be bored out to make the displacement 2.2 liters.

Besides...I think it's S53 tranny...or something like that...just I know it's not an E...
E means economy
S means sport

Yeah, the SS3 with the BEAMS used either the S54 or the E56 (I think those are the right ones, I have it written down somewhere. Definately not an economy only setup.
