Aussies: Toyota SA63 (MkIII Celica) bellhousing needed
I was just wondering if any of my fellow Aussie builders would be so kind as to offer to scrounge up some Toyota SA63 (MkIII Celica) parts for me.
Specifically, I need the bellhousing. Oil sump and pickup would be a bonus, but not necessary since I can design around it. I'm trying to mate a
3SGTE to a RWD gearbox and this is pretty much the only way to do it. Unfortunately, the SA63 Celica was never sold in the US 
Reply here or send mail to bigtigrrr(at)yahoo.com
Many thanks,
Winston

aahhh 3s-gte is a bombproof engine  I had one on my ST205. brings back many lovely memories.
Why not try mating it to a MT75 Gearbox instead? All it takes is a fabricated bellhousing.

Yes, and even better that I already have a 3SGTE in the shop  I can go with a custom bell if I must... if I do that, I can basically pick my
gearbox. I was hoping to avoid that trouble and cost by using the 2S bell. It'll mate up to a MkIII Supra turbo box, which'll hold the
power easily and are readily available in the junkyards here.
