    yea they seemed the same at first but then the ra40 center looked bigger and wouldnt fit and it also seems that the bolts dont line up and that?

    and other suggestions?

    thanks

    I surgest that the T-18 diff had been swapped for a smaller one (not T series), or the Celica diff had been swapped with a bigger one.

    How many bolts? How many sun gears? Diameter of the crown wheel roughly?

    8 bolts = S series. Someone has swapped the diff with their Sprinter, or some other import.

    All Toyota diffs look the same. Just different sizes.

    The BorgWarner is a rare Australian only thing, came on some Australian assembled Corollas and Coronas.
