I think this is the first 5 speed manual transmission LJ78 I've ever seen for sale in Canada (or seen at all for that matter).

It's got me thinking about what it would take to make my LJ78 into a manual. Anyone know?
Can I use a 4-runner manual transmission? R151 or something? Would I need different drive shafts? I guess the EFI system built for the auto would not be happy? Would I have to go with a mechanical injection pump from a 2LT II engine?
I'm starting to hate my A343F more and more as I realize how much power it wastes at speeds under 70km/hr (before the torque converter locks). I also hate towing with it. I think the reason fuel economy is not the best with these in the city is because of the auto.
I'm almost tempted to buy the banged up Prado, and swap the manual trans bits into mine. But it's not in the budget at the moment...
