First of all let me just say that I am EXTREMELY frustrated with my car. I bought an 84 Supra 5-speed transmission in hopes of converting my automatic to a 5-speed. Well my mechanic bailed out and now the tranny is in the for sale section of these forums. Go figure. I called anywhere and everywhere within 50 miles of Philadelphia and found an automatic transmission from Future Cars in Coplay, PA. Cool. I went there to pick it up and there was no torque converter or kickdown cable in the tranny. So the owner says, 'Well, there's an 82 Cressida tranny that will work exactly the same. It'll bolt right into your car with no problems. All I have to do is replace the tail of the Cressida with the tail of the Supra.' Cool.. $250 plus tax and I'm on my way home with my new tranny. Phone call to mechanic: 'Hey I got an automatic Cressida tranny for my car. Get to work.' Mechanic: 'Cool tow that sucker over here.' Car got towed 2 days ago. Today my mechanic calls and says, 'The Cressida tranny will bolt in no problem.' Me: *relief* Mechanic: 'Just a couple problems. The shift linkage on the Cressida tranny is in a different spot than the Supra tranny, which means I will have to fabricate a linkage for it. The dip stick is in a different spot too, so I don't know if it will be blocked off by the exhaust or something else under your car. Also, one of the plugs on the Cressida transmission has 6 connection holes in it. The same plug on the Supra only has 4. Also, the oil cooler lines are in a different spot on the Cressida. What do you want to do?' Me: 
WTF?! So my question is.. has anyone ever replaced an 85 Supra trans with an 82 Cressida trans? Can it be done? Do I really have to change all this crap around? Or, since I have a 90 day warranty on the Cressida trans, should I call the idiots back who sold it to me and just take the Supra transmission without the torque converter and kickdown cable? I'm stuck :x
