The difference is that the 1986.5-1988 Supras have the yellow plugs and the 1989-1992 Supras have gray plugs. If you have the 1986.5-1988 Style, then I would just switch the engine wiring harness and ecu from a 89-92 Supra that has gray plugs. Hope this helps.

The auto ECU is fine with a manual transmission.

no you dont need to cut the wires. you can take the wires out of the connector. there are lil clips that hold them in there. you get something very narrow to put in there and pull the wire out. then you can put the wire into the 89+ connector, you just need to find the schematics for your year and and 89+ so you know what wire goes where.
this is just what i would do. if you want to go the other route, thats all up to you
