Does anyone know which Toyota models in the US come with an R151 transmission? It looks like Land Cruisers from the 80’s do, as does the 97-2004 European Hilux, but what about the 1st gen Tacoma? Any other US models with an R151? I’m looking to buy just the transmission and am wondering what to look for at the junkyard.

'86-87 pickups with the 22R-TE Turbo engine and 5-speed had them. They are VERY desirable, and VERY hard to find. I had to buy an entire parts truck on eBay just to find one, that was back in 2006. Looks like Marlin sells them:

'88+ got the R150.

Please Note: We currently do NOT have any rebuildable Turbo transmission cores. We are trying to come up with cores in good, rebuildable condition suitable to our standard....

You have to send Marlin a core first for it to be rebuilt due to them being so limited.
