price in parts depends on where you get the parts..... if you have a cheap junkyard then they could be as little as $150 including trans, flywheel, pedals, master/slave cylinders, hard/softlines, etc.....

but if you bought it all brand new from toyota it could cost you over $2000 in parts alone....

it would be the same as running/bending your own brake lines.... not hard if you know what you're doing.... just don't kink them...

or you could spend the big buck and have a very long SS braided line made... then you can run it whever you want and however you want..... would probably cost a couple hundred dollars though
