yaristurbo Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 C52 and I haven't shredded it yet lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdamB Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 I would take the casing with a pinch of salt tbh, the gears could have been swaped over at somepoint. The only real way is to split the box and work it out, driven/driver. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
akyakapotter Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 (edited) Just hit limiter on my private road was 96ish on my dial was in 3rd gear ill do it with my snooper soon so will be gps dose that mean I have the better box ?

turbo Grant Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 (edited) I used to get around the 100mph out of my old mk2 GT that had the silver timing belt cover with the thicker rods. Then I changed engine and gear box to a newer one. That was the black timing cover engine. And could never get more than about 95 with that set up. Both were on stock ecu. I believe the thicker rod engines were only in mk1 and early mk2 the mk3 all seem to have the black timing belt coverEdit; tire size was 195/50/15 Edited June 14, 2013 by turbo Grant Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AdamB Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 102.356mph in third at 7600rpm. On 14s You must have an ecu mate, stock rev limit is 7200rpm? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blitz Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 If you buy new gearbox parts would they be default C56 parts from Toyota? Or if you had a C52 box would you stipulate you wanted C52 parts?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdamB Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 Believe you can ask for which one you require parts for. Although as fair as I'm aware it purely is just the 2 gears which are different, the use the same synchro's, bearings, etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jhandy Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 You would have to tell them. Because they would source parts for the original box that was for that car. Via chassis number Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 (edited) Just pop on toyodiy and get the part numbers from there. If you give them the numbers then they cant get it wrong. Be aware gears are like £200+ from toyota though hahaOh and syncro's got revised so will be different to your originals ;) Edited June 16, 2013 by morgey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blitz Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 Well it was just I have a 97 Glanza but put an aftermarket box in (with LSD) and The casing looks spot on to a C52, but if it ever rebuilt and you gave the chassis number you might get parts for a different box Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jhandy Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 In that case the box would have to come apart. Or do a third gear pull and see what u get Quote Link to post Share on other sites
turbo Grant Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 In got a c56 box in my green car haha Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Azz Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 Looks like I've got the c52 box in my 96 SPEC v and that too has numbers in pen accross the top but I do believe its the none lsd I think Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scottyb Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 (edited) Looks like my 98 spec has the c52! Casting looks just the same Edited June 20, 2013 by scottyb Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Weyro Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 C52 here! but only pushing 240bhp haha Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Erm i going to have to shit on everyones door step here. I've just ha another look at the wiki.Its the c52 that has the flange as it was used to mount the selector assembly in the rear engined 4age powered Mr2's The c56 is a revision of the 52 which was never intended for use in a rear engined car so didn't require the flange to mount any selector assembly to.Heres a link to another guide, which imo is still wrong but you get a better idea, http://www.ben9166.com/2010/05/how-to-recognize-c56bt-c56st-and-c53.html?m=1Personally first box is a c52, its what im running atm, ratio's are different from an ae92 c52 but looks are identical.Second is the c56 without the flange3rd is the c52 with flange setup for Mr2. Some may call it c53 or something else but its the same box. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Socks Posted June 21, 2013 Author Share Posted June 21, 2013 Interesting! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blitz Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 So the C56BT is still good as that's what the 300BHP+ boys are using? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 (edited) From what i can gather, c52 (casing atleast) was upto about 95-96 With different gearsets fitted which determines C52-56.Late spec c56 (no flange) should be 96/7 -99-00 But as toyota are a bunch of useless **** and didnt lable anything knowone really knows as its just speculation!And any C series can be bolted together as long as you use the bell housing from the car you intend to fit it to. The c series has been being used from early 80's iirc and went on to late 20**'s it may still be being used now tbh!! Edited June 21, 2013 by morgey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
