which engine? (3F, 3FE, 1FZ-FE, 1HZ, 1HD-T, 1HD-FT)?

very basically, you need to get flywheel, clutch, pedal assembly, shifters, floor trims/boots etc, gearbox, bellhousing, starter might be different, there might be issues with the transmission computer interfacing the engine computer in EFI models - it's a big job, there's lots of pulling apart. unless you've got plenty of time on your hands it's not really economically viable - better off selling the auto 80 and buying a manual.

cheers
