Gday mate,
I think a supra gearbox would be a bit better in your car.
u can usually pick these up fairly cheap in the trading post.
if u have trouble finding one give us a bell

stick position may be the samedepending on what it came out of.
there are many different bellhousings for this conversion, ensure you purchase one with your clutch linkage in mind or you will have to change that aswell.
input shaft stays but you will need a toyota clutch plate.
celica box is only as strong as how hard you treat it, meaning it will support a mild V8 if you drive it with a fluid motion changing gears. if you gonna smash it on the red line thru each gear every day then this might not be the box for you.
