"A quick primer on Toyota’s 6-speed manual RWD transmissions
Although our earlier article covered this ground in far greater detail, a recap on Toyota’s 6-speed manual rear-wheel-drive-centric transmissions is in order. In essence, there are only three of them: The Getrag 233 / Toyota V160/V161 used in the legendary Supra Mark IV Twin Turbo; the Aisin AY6 / Toyota/Lexus RA60 series and the Aisin AZ6 / Toyota/Lexus J160. The AY6/RA60 series is, essentially, a beefy truck transmission whose vague shift feel is decidedly subpar for a rear-wheel-drive transmission. Except for RA62 (Lexus IS 250 and, allegedly, Scion FR-S and its derivatives) and RA63 (Europe’s Lexus IS 200d and IS 220d diesels), its other Toyota applications are in Tacoma and FJ Cruiser."

Im not sure if it would be a good shifter feel even if it did fit.

That would likely weigh almost twice what the stock transmission does, and hang about 5-6" lower as well.

No one who has done the conversion has posted any reviews or details on it.

i have heard that the late m3 6 speed tranny is just as good as the supra and not as expensive, but have not been able to confirm it

Horrible shifting over 6500rpm, really tall gear ratios making it useless for a lower torque application.

really? i would not think this since 2000 m3 inline 6 engines were hi-reving engines. 8,000 rpm and again its a getrag tranny just like the supra
some m3 owners are making 700whp plus on stock engine and tranny.

If you had read the quote my response was to the tremec series of transmissions not the BMW getrag. And the supra v160 was only used in the e39 m5 not the m3
