Default Need mr2 trans

Anyone have a 91 and ^ turbo trans? I am in need of one ASAP. Would prefer 93 and up an LSD if possible. Thanks,

I am technically inept...lol. What is the welded diff about? Miles on tranny? Condition (any grinding)? Where are you located? Price? Warranty? U can email me privately at mr2pio@yahoo.com Thanks, Mike

Welded diff would be more for a drag car. Don't forget, if you get a 93+ LSD transmission, you will also need to get LSD axles. I am checking my source to see if he is able to get a 91-92 trans. I will get back to you when I find something out.

Thanks Mark. I am going to have Ryan do the install. He has a few transmissions laying around that he said he could rebuild, but I figured I would see what else is out there. Of course I would prefer LSD. Ryan said I would only need the stub shaft from the drivers side. That is all I would need for the lsd, right?

Yes that is correct. It is very expensive though. Best I could find was a 91-92 for $700.

Thanks guys. I had Ryan drive it. He said the trans is fine. Problem is w/ the clutch. It's not slipping though. I am just going to replace it. I would like to personally thank Clearwater Toyota (which happens to be a previous employer of mine) for trying to F me by trying to tell me I had a bad trans and it would run me $5000 to repair
