    Umm...

    If it's an SA63 (6.7" T-series) centre, then you have a wide range of AE86 centres available that should fit. Take your pick.

    If it's an RA65 (7.5" F-series) centre, you could put a stock MA61 clutch centre in, or a torsen TruTrack. Not sure if these are 1, 1.5 or 2 way though.

    I want to install the RA65 rear housing as it is better? (???)
    To put an RA65 lsd into an SA63 you need the diff sub frames, the rear section of the tailshaft, and I suspect the side driveshafts...


    And from you profile you have an AE65 celica with a 1ggte?! what the?

    Cheers

    HERE here , as grossly inadequate descriptions, and misguided imformation base. A completly different make for me and all this RA65 , SA63 , AE86 ,MA61 , talk really has confused the cr-p out of me!!! ANYWAYS learning fast, especially when told i "m an idiot !! ( ha ha ) I have a SA63 celica with a 1GG. ITS diff centre is a smaller unit than the stronger one in a RA65 !!! HOPEFULLY i have clarified myself a little, and you dont think i am a complete loser !!! CHEERS

    That was a much better post! All you need now is more punctuation

    (More enters make a post way easier to read!)...

    The above quote was/is wrong, I meant to say

    This is because as you have said the SA63 celica has the T series IRS (independent rear suspension) diff, and it is smaller and slightly different in mounting to the F series ISR (i.e. RA65 diff).

    The SA63 diff is held in above with 3 bolts (and some on the sides too), as opposed to the RA65 which has 4 bolts holding it in from above. The section that it bolts into is different as a result of this so to put the RA65 diff into the SA63 you need that main xmember.

    The T (SA63) series diff is actually a little shorter than the F series one (RA65), so as a result the SA63 tailsahft rear section is ~20mm longer to make up for this. So to put the F series diff into sa63 you need the ra65's shorter tailshaft

    I also suspect the shafts that go off the side of the diffs are different

    Cheers

    I believe the half-shafts are different, yes. I have some F-series ones spare but not the other parts.

    Cloaky, I sent you a message by the way.
