Hey guys I'm rebuilding my 7mge right now and I found a 89 supra targa top for 1000$ it needs a motor so I was think of getting it and put my new motor in it because I really want a targa to but my car is a 5speed and the targa top is a auto so I would like to know how hard is it to swap the trannys out so I got all the parts needed from mine Just don't know what is all the parts needed

Actually, as you've already got both on hand it'll be plenty evident when you start swapping parts. If you're keeping the A/T ECU you'll want to route the neutral start switch through the clutch switch. Then you'll need to swap transmission, clutch master cylinder and lines, brake and clutch pedals, clutch switches (one acts as the NSW and the other prevents the cruise control from over-revving the engine when the clutch is pressed), drive shaft.... there's more but it's just little things.
