i think you're vice versa NashMan, i did a bunch of searches on supraforums and came to the conclusion that a automatic ECU will work with 5spd.

i dunno about the swap tho, the tranny i have now is all electronically controlled, and would be a real bitch to change properly.

i talked to a guy who's done tranny work for me before today, hes really good and thinks i should just get a higher stall torque converter and maybe a shift kit, with a rebuild.

im undecided, hes going to get back to me tommorow with prices and what he can find.

i was thinking of maybe doing a N/A rear end too, but after the cars boosted high the N/A rearend will just spin the tires, no traction at all, and highway idle speeds are much higher, im gonna stick with my gearing. the ratio's were changed in 89+ supra's to a even lower ratio, so i imagine my top speed is pretty damn high considering ive heard of 87 supra's doing 160mph.. heheh
