Supra 5 speed -If you wanna go all brand new, then its expensive, i looked into doing the celica 5-speed on the Vk, and its about 2 grand unfitted just for parts., and mines already manual so i have some parts.
Id imagine if you wernt doing the work yourself it will soon add up.
Look at getting a second hand kit, their was on ebay the other day, not sure if its still their, ill post up a link if i see it tonight. And either get a mate to help you put it in, or find a cheap but decent mechanic.

For the brake booster, either get a second hand one, or go to a brake specialist and get them to rebuild yours, IIRC its about 100 bux to get them rebuilt.

A guy on COCC was selling a supra 5 spd box with everything u need to chuck it in. It come out of an earlier Holden (HQ era, can't remember which exactly) and he got it with a 253 to put in his vh wags, but wanted an auto so was selling all the manual gear for about $400. I was gonna get it but was short on cash at the time. Not sure if he still has it. His name is Piracy on the COCC forums.

The Supra boxes are really good, but there a major screw around. If your running a standard motor theres no point in anything more than the Borg Warner M76 5spd, mine put up with a worked N/A 202 perfectly fine.

I've got a speedo cable, clutch cable, flywheel, spigot bush, crossmember and tailshaft front half if your after bits. That would leave you with the gear box, pedal box and clutch kit.
