Alright I've done the automatic 3SGTE and it was great while it lasted... Second gear just disappeared one day so I think I'm just going to go ahead with the manual swap instead of trying to install a built A540E to replace the stock A140E.

When I bought my celica a few years ago it came with what I was told was everything I needed to do the auto to manual swap but the seller ended up being less than trustworthy so I was hoping you all would be able to confirm that these are the parts I need.

The clutch pedal doesn't spring back on it's own when it's in the depressed position. Is that normal? I assume so since the hydraulics are dry and the pressure plate isn't offering any resistance.

Also, Can anyone tell me what in the hell this transmission came out of? I know it's not an S54 and it's not from a Camry or a 4th gen Celica but maybe it's from a 5th gen. I need to find out which car it came from so I can get the electric speedometer sensor to replace the cable driven one.

I'm not sure about the drivers side transmission mount either. Does this one look like what I need or do I need to find one from the S54 out of a 6th gen.

Lastly, do these cables look like 6th gen GT shift cables?

Thanks in advance.

The flywheel and clutch are MIA but I'll be getting a spec clutch and hopefully a lightweight flywheel.

Huh? You lost me.

I have the top half of the mount from the automatic. It's supposed to work with the bracket that bolts to the manual transmission if I'm not mistaken.

Will the automatic transmission bracket work on the manual?
