Question AUTO to 5 SPEED tranny swap

what am I up against in my plans to outfit my Supra with not only a new engine, but an AUTO to 5 SPD. transmission swap?

I'm hoping to hear from some people that have done this, so i can learn from them, and buy everything i need.

cheers!

Very common swap. On the MKIII supra, it's a straight parts swap. Tranny, clutch, clutch hydraulics and pedals. Remove the tranny control computer to complete. Driveshaft needs to be replaced as well IIRC, and a shift boot will be needed for the interior, though the console is the same. Everything else works as before, except the tranny lights on the dash.
