Does the TE31 2-TC come in 5 speed stock? Or do i have to swap?

yes, 2tc come in 5 speed sometimes..... don't know about there in AUS. its called the early T50 tranny, look for 71-78 toyota corolla tranny for the right shifter location. t50 tranny from 79-83 fits but the shifter has moved back about 3 inches towards the rear.

Your best bet is a TA22 Celica T50, they have the forward shifter location.

same diffrence as the corolla 71-78 :jamie:

our corollas in aus didint have t series motors or gearboxes so ta22 would be the go,

The T18 had the 3T, it's technically a Corolla (TE72 liftback)

that is true, my mistake, but JDM guy i think was reffering to *E10-*E55's

I was reffering to 71-78 corolla model TE27/TE21/ TE28/ TE31/TE37, and TE35? .... As well as TA22 or TA27.

None of which were sold in Australia (apart from TA22, and supposedly a handful of TE27s for homologation purposes)

:hmm: well then in that case ta22 it is :lolcry: , thats why i said in the 2nd posting " i don't know about there is AUS" cause those TE mentioned above, i want sure if they were released there.

The TE31 Corolla did come with a T40 and some with a T50 I think. Same with most 2T engined cars. The Corolla "SR-5" TE37 did come with the 5-speed, as "SR-5" was thought to mean 5-speed back then.

 

But the T40 and T50 gearbox is the same, just the 4-speed is missing some parts. It was possible at the time when new, to buy the extra parts for the gearbox to upgrade to 5-speed.
