celica gt-s dif

Post by landslideATX »

i have a friend that has an 85 celica gt-s, he wants to get a dif but we don't know what car we can get it from. like with 240's you can get a j3o dif and it swaps in. what kind of car can we get a dif from for this car? he's new to drifting also so welding would be down the line if at all. lol. let me know, thanks.

if i'm not mistaken, the 85 celica GT-S has I.R.S. (independent rear suspension). This is a bit difficult so if you would, get the chassis code and post it up. it's the one on the firewall under the hood.
