Will the stock 5 speed trans adapt to the GTE with a new bell housing? I am looking to put down about 600hp with my car and will be going to a stand alone EMS, with a custom exhaust, and nitros. I would like to know if the 7M-GTE is a direct swap into the 7M-GE or if i will need to do anything extensive like engine mounts and so on. I am looking at a JDM enigne from jazz pro parts to swap, so if there is anyone out there that would like to share some knowledge with me, i would really appreciate it.

If you get a 87 or 88 7mgte it will bolt right in to the orginal motor mounts, The 7mgte is the same block as the 7mge i beileve so the w58 trans from your 7mge should bolt right up if it doesnt you can get the r154 trans bell housing from the 7mgte and then it will bolt up, as for 600hp your looking at some money there is a guy on the form called knate he has a 667hp supra and a 1jz swapped supra he might be able to help your reach your 600hp goal.
