Here's some stuff I cut off a website, it think it was turbocorolla.com? The stuff below relates to an AE82 conversion, a couple have been done in Aus and were featured in a Hot 4's or Fast Fours.
"for the shafts, you need celica st185 shafts with SC outer CV's (thats what people do when building mk1.5 mr2's) and you can keep your standard hubs!
FWIW, all that is required to convert the sw20 box for fwd is to replace the shift arm with one from a fwd E series box, and plug up the hole left by the old arm. The arms shouldn't be hard to come across, infact I have a spare
However, for some reason sw20 boxes seem to be priced a lot higher than fwd celica/curren etc ones, so its probably not worth it.
