Yes I was wander if the internals are the same as I need new syncros 3-4 and they are $650 just for the ring where as I can get a GTT box with a cracked caseing from a crashed car for $400.

Any thoughts?

I heard from a work mate the 3sgte engines were fitted to the Toyota Altezza and had six forward gears this is hearsay but he is reliable.

The Altezza has the 3S-GE (not sure about the 3S-GTE) in the RS200 but its front engined rear wheel drive so I would thinkg the gearbox is a north south config?
