    Are you referring to the K50? 5 speed out of the KE70s?
    If so, it's a completely different box... and the short answer is no, it won't bolt up to a 2TG.

    You'll need a T50 from a celica, T18 or T engined corona... Either that, or track down a 1G manual and steal the W5* and bellhousing off of that... It'll bolt up except for one bolt, which won't matter...

    That said, I'm aware that K series bellhousings can be found for T series boxes... If you've got one, then you'll need a new bellhousing. If you do have one of these, it's worth a decent amount to anyone racing (or street driving a bombed engine) with K series engines...

    as above the K series T50's are relatively rare, but do exist in stock corollas.

    K series 5 speeds, K50's have integral bellhousings.. so they are only good for K series

    Hi. I tried to attach photo, which after altering file type worked.
    Looks like a separate bell housing to me and gear lever is at front of rear housing, same as TA22.Attachment 10458

    Thanks to all help so far.

    Hi oldcorollas. I got a message from the seller saying it is a one piece gearbox/ bell housing and came from a KE series, even though photo looks different to one piece housings I dealt with before.
    Sorry didn't ask if hydraulic or cable clutch.
    Thanks again. ToyTA22

    this is T50 box http://www.rollaclub.com/faq/images/...1117457073.jpg
    this is K50 http://www.toycrazy.net/mark/pics/ke26-3kswap-001.jpg

    Kseries boxes have aflat plate that bolts up underneath

    that pic you showed is a T series and all T series have detachable bellhousings, as does the one in your pic (i am 95% sure)

    ask seller if it is for hydraulic or cable clutch, or get them to send pic of the other side

    anyway, if it is na original cable clutch T50, then you cna use with T series BH, as the original ones were leftovers from the celica anyway.. apparently..


    edit: did they send you the wrong picture?
