    DOH..... Someone might have an old junk shifter they can pull one out of for you.... Have a local pickApart nearby? Wouldn't surprise me if it's the same in a few different cars ie: Cressida's (my shift is half a Cressy one)

    Has anybody?

    I keep a sheet of plain gasket paper in the shed along with a set of wad punches "just in case".. Nothing worse then doing a repair on the weekend and having to wait for Toyota to reopen Monday to order in a simple gasket.

    OK, who has tried this line on a trafic cop?

    No, the time you spend fucking around and fail could be used to do it properly.

    rear timing belt case coolant leak 7mgte

    Almost impossible due to the dowel pegs in the front ofe the block, you'll end up with a head leak a pan leak and a timing case leak.

    I wrecked my Supra :(

    He doesn't have the skills, knowledge or a support group of locals to help.... Better course of action would be to part the wreck for as much as he can get then buy a running car to replace it.
