I know I could not take a C60 trans and bolt it to a 4AGE block. People who do it wind up swapping the cases to make it work. So you would need to do the same (case swap) to use a C52, C160, or corrola transmsison. I remember there was some highly geared corrola or tercel transmission, but forget what code it was. I always wanted to combine a 4AFE setup with that tranmission, but never did. Instead I just used the C160 with a 4aGe 16v, silvertop 20v, and eventually a blacktop 20v. Those were more performace driven but still got 40+ mpg.
