    1983 Celica... whats that?
    Everyone uses model numbers around here

    Maybe look at the RT104 Corona's diff?

    70's era Corona or Corolla would be the go.

    depend show much power it needs to handle??

    if the 83 celica is still RWD, then any corolla or celica after about 1970 will have the same pattern..

    Why does the diff have to be from a leaf sprung car?

    Surely it wouldn't be to hard to remove trailing arm mounts and weld on some mounts you need.

    Have done this before and was easy enough to do in my opinion.
