I own a 94 gs300 and am looking into swapping in a manual transmision from a supra. Have any of you guys done the swap, or know anything of it?

 

Expect to spend about $10k for this swap. You can built the auto to handle some serious hp.

Why is the cost so much? I beleive you could use the early Mk IV ecu along with the needed clutch assembly, and things would work. Are there problems wiring the new ecu to match the instruments and electronics in the car?

 

Kris,

You posted this in the 2nd gen GS forum (moved it to first gen). The 2nd Gen is more difficult because of VVT-I motor. Not sure if JPI's estimate was thinking you were doing it on a 98+ GS

 

My bad I thought it's 98 + , but you have to do a custom driveshaft. Everything will come up close to 7k. Swap a manual tranny isn't an easy task.

Mine has been converted using a R154 gearbox out of a MK3 supra.
Don`t know cost as it was done in japan with an HKS triple plate clutch.
Sure is fun to drive mind you
