NORCAL-TE28

Right on guys! I have decided to run a 2TC motor and was not aware the T Box was compatible ,Thanks , the main thing is I have lots of reading to so I can ask better quality questions in the future , my friend gets 500 horses from his 2tc and runs the w box for strength , I will build more of a mild set up with closer to 300 horses for my street car, lucky me i have an og clutch assembly for my 5 spd conversion, just need a trans. I will update as the build progresses. :happy:

Parrot, thanks for the response, i am a member of 3tc garage but can't remember my user name so i can't post , the admin wont get back to me , oh well my fault, anyway, is there a specific car that i should look for that has more compatible parts, and what of the elusive w50 ? is it a cellica trans ? thanks mate

My plans are upgrading power, breaking ,turning ,and 5spd , some sweet paint an some mesh wheels with chrome lips, and if i can Ever find one an og luggage rack!

Hi everyone! just picked up a 72 TE28 with 66k og miles! I am the second owner! I got the og Manual and tool kit, even the og spare tire! It has a Toyoglide trans and the og 2tc motor. I have been an old school car lover all my life and have had Datsuns , VWs, lots of Toyota trucks but this is my first wagon and my first old school toyota so I am on the learning curve for specs not so much on wrenching. I have read some forum posts and know that the AE86 is used for upgrading the older levin cars like mine. My question is I know where a 85 AE86 GTS is for a good price, does this car fit my needs for w50 transmission and front suspension upgrades? I want to use the trans and also the struts and brakes , pull motor and ecu fenders and stuff and sell it or kep the 4AGEC motor for a rebuild project cause I want a/c at some point. Should I buy a car like the Gts for $500 bucks or just look for the parts on their own? Thanks for your input! Aloha
