Lots of research first is what I would do as this and many other swaps have nemourous threads about the how to's and in's and outs of it all. Your tranny will worjk but you will need the 4cyl turbo bellhousing from an r151f. you have a r150f with a chain drive case. Search more and you shall find all you are looking for on this swap

going to be a very tight fit, and that engine has alot of wierd positiond things, like its hard to get to alot of vacumm lines, bolts and water lines on that engine, its a hose mess sometiems.

not for a 5M/7M swap, if he has an r150f, he needs to buy a custom bellhousing (around $350 dollars). if he has the 4 cylinder w56 transmission, then he needs to buy the bellhousing off the supra transmission (must also be a 5 speed).

For the 4 cylinder swap (22R series), simply use 5MGE motor mounts and the 7M block will fit on your original frame welded mounts. use the bellhousing, clutch, flywheel, clutch fork, and slave cylinder from the Supra, everything will bolt up real nice.

I intend to do this swap (seriously haha, not just talk) from my 3VZE to a 7MGTE. I will need to move my motor mounts and purchase the adapter bellhousing, and 5 speed swap my truck all at once haha. Its not as straight forward as the 4 cylinder swap, but the V6 manual is far more stout and will deal much better with my turbo charged swap. I plan to do some mods and am hoping to pull at least 300 horsepower at the rear wheels. its gonna be the truck from hell hahaha

but anyways, here is a good site for information:
Supra Charged!

bellhousing you'd need for a 3VZE swap:
Custom Bellhousing

On second examination, it doesn't look as if you can actually purchase that bellhousing... make your own haha!

SupraRunner · 03-12-2009, 05:06 PM

Since we are all assuming you have the 5 speed on that v6 and not the auto, you CAN avoid fabricating a bell housing, HOWEVER! it does involve swapping the output shaft from your r150 with the one in the 154 found on the back of that 7m turbo, (or my recommendation the 1jz), then your RF1a transfer case will bolt right up. And if you go with the 7m non turbo or 6m or 5m they have a w58 and you would need the output shaft from a w56 (found in I4 5speeds) to bolt a transfer case. All of these do involve getting the trans with your new motor, if you want to run with run with yours then yes, cut and fab or let the guys a Supracharged.com do it for you.
Hope this helps

Thats OK. If SupraRunner wants to dig up an old thread, let him. He's the #1 source of info on supra engine swaps.

is that supposed to be sarcastic or serious?

scuba · 03-13-2009, 12:17 AM

Its just that, They guy who posted only posted in this thread twice, I think he either got deployed or he gave up the idea of the swap, while putting that info in this thread is good for some people, it doesnt negate the fact that he bought up a dead thread from a year ago.
But whatever...

SupraRunner · 03-13-2009, 06:15 AM

Was only trying to get the information out there, there seems to be some interest in this swap, "while not much". I figured even if THIS guy has moved on, that maybe someone else searching this section for information might benefit from some discussion and information. (I thought that was the whole idea of this area?)

Just the Newbie trying to make some meaningful contributions.
