had the 3T (1800OHV) which was what was used in the very early celica rally
cars but minus a turbo and dual spark heads
great little motor....did about 250,000k's and about 80 of those were driven
by me....and well to be honest i didnt treat it like i should've....did
regular oil changes etc....more often than gear changes....but i did manage
to take her out to 8,500rpm a few times (redline was 6,000).....was rather
noisy but still never stuffed up once....other than writing it off into a
drain but we wont go there haha

An XT Corona would have had a shitfire...sorry, Starfire Holden engine that
was basically a 202 with 2 cylinders lopped off the end.
Your Celica XX was the model name whereas the model number or code would
have been MA61 :)

Check the chassis number of some Toyota cars, and then check the engine
numbers. You'll find that the first chassis character(s) is(are) the engine
series code. St celica, JZa supra, Rx cressida, Mz Soarer

Jonathon,
Surely more than anything you need a Torsen, not cheap I know,
but what's the use of a Supra without a good LSD.
Frankly I hate clutches/manual g/boxs, but acknowledge the
advice given here, that even the later 5 (& 6 ??) spd autos are not so
strong or quick. Damned shame!!

Try moving a 1.5t car from 0-400m with 225 tires and no lsd!
Than you'll learn all about clutch control ;)
My problems thus far: (Standard car, no internal mods, 150
worth of turbo control mods).
Leaking coolant hoses - attributed solely to leakin oil
causing hoses to soften.
Clutch failure - attributed to abuse of clutch.
Supras a stong as brick s**thouses...literally. Treat them
right, MAINTAIN them properly, and no problems shalt thou have...

I've only had problems with mine because of the fact that
all the work that
has been on mine has not been done by a "professional" and
has basically ALL
been done by myself with help from guys on here
as for the traction factor.....you try moving a 1 and a half
tone car from
0-400meters with shitty old 205 tires hahah
