it's an aristo, it came with a 2JZGTE stock. and it was swapped already with a 6 speed when he got it

the 6 speed conversion isn't that uncommon, pretty much the same as the 5 speed conversion which is VERY commonly found

I imported that car from Japan to Canada in 2006. The swap was done in Japan and they use the ''Emergency Brake Pedal'' for the clutch. The pedal is far left but you get use to it in a couple minutes!! The brake pedal was the OEM Aristo. As for the hand brake, they adapted the Supra OEM.

Here is a couple of pictures:

beautiful car indeed!!

wow the clutch pedal is the stock ebrake pedal!? that must be a bit difficult being so high up and far to the left... but an awesome car none the less!

wondering if it's hard to do that swap, along with the altered side ebrake?

I looked into doing a 6 speed swap with my GS and I found out that the real only way to get a clutch pedal (in the correct location) is to drill. That is really the only way. There was a thread somewhere and I wish I could find it, but it has been done on a couple cars. I dont think it would be too terrible to say the least.
