It'll be some work. Good luck with it.
Like was stated above try to find a donor car so it doesn't nickle and dime you to death. That way you can also look and see how everything goes in before installing.

small things are all you really need. not sure about your gen runner and compatibility with the Tacoma's, but in my gen, everything is interchangeable. I say that because you'll have a lot easier of a job finding a Tacoma donor with a 5 speed than you will a t4r.
you'll need a new flywheel, pressure plate, clutch, master and slave cylinders, clutch hard lines, center console surround, cross member, and the pedal assembly. this isn't a complete list, fyi.
that, and you'll have to do some custom wiring on the wiring harness (park/neutral saftey switch) to avoid throwing a CEL. either that or elect to get a manual ECU (if you have a donor, its the best route). Your floor pan will also need to be trimmed a little to accomodate the manual shift levers.
sounds like a lot of work, but I have been told with a group of friends and a case of beer, it's a Saturday night project.
I'll be doing this very swap in my truck at the end of August here.
