So... Ive been thinking lately, "what toyota transmissions would either bolt directly to a 2-AZ-FE thats in the tC, or bolt up with the use of an adapter plate?"
I'm trying to make a 5-speed or 6-speed AWD tC, which has obviously been thought of before, I just need a little insight on the transmission to use, and cost is not an issue.
This will become a track car used for downhill/uphill point-to-point style races. mainly mountain style tracks and sloloms (however the heck its spelled).
I know the basic platform of the tC is a Celica with a tC body and 2AZ-FE motor. so there is bound to be a transmission i can use for it, since the celica did have a turbo AWD doppelganger in Japan. If I must i will purchase the entire power-train and drive-train from Japan that was in one of those, but I'd like to see all of my options. and just thought it would be necessary to prevent the trolls, I know it will be absolutely necessary to re-gear the transmission for proper ratios.

To clear things up, the tC was not based (loosely) of the Toyo Celica as first thought. It was based on a Euro Toyo vehicle. I have yet to hear of a Gen2 tC trans being dropped into a Gen1 tC. The 2AR-FE motor in the Gen2 IS based off the 2AZ-FE design that has been a widely used and successful motor for Toyo. The mounting flange for the bell housings look similar.
