what to do with my ae86??
i have an ae86 sr5 automatic Angry Crying but the body is in good shape and i got it cheap. the motor currently has a blown rear main seal. should i just get new engine and tranny? what tranny's work with sr5's? what would be the easiest engine swap? I've heard 20v are difficult to install in sr5's.. what would you guys do? interested in your input Thumbs up!

The SR5 is almost the same as a GTS, so any tranny fitting the GTS would also fit the SR5. Most common is the stock T50 which will only fit on any 4AGE if it has got a GTS bellhousing.

Here you can find the most "common" engine swaps:

But depending on the swap you may need a different tranny. Wink

And in case you want to convert it to GTS (different axle and disc brakes) along the way:
