if i recall correctly, the 6-speed from the celica gt-s fits up to the engine just fine, but you have to notch the frame to get it to fit, don't know if it has been successfully done though really...you'll have to dig through some old threads in the xa/xb drivetrain forum, try SEARCHING

Find/get a C160 from a AE111 Levin which comes with a mechanical LSD
- Remove your old bell-housing and attach it to your C160
- Notch almost 2 inches off your framerail to allow clearance for the C160 since its a longer thansmission case
- Get Corolla S axel seals
After you do what I listed, everything matches up, including your axels and clutch.
Good luck finding one, and yes this the only one you can use on a 1NZ-FE
This information is tested and is legit, since Wraith personally told me this what needs to be done, and its what he did to his car.

Let me know if and when you find one since. I'm looking for onme myself, turst me they are not easy to find, and when you do find one you might have to pay a pretty penny for it.
