Does anyone know if a IS250 manual will fit on a 350?

That would be hard to do and keep the car streeet legal.

I would suggest cross referencing the pressure plate/flywheel/ and disc part number with other toyota cars.

Then see if they make an aftermarket PP for that referenced car.

No Supra engine/ECM supports CAN (or BEAN), so your gauges won't work along with just about everything else using CAN & BEAN that depends on an ECM input. I have a friend with an MR-S who wants to put in a 2ZZ and keep his SMT, but the SMT uses CAN between the ECM and the transmission ECU, so you can't separate them and have a working transmission. Similar problem.

The gearbox is the RA-62. It's a variant of the RA-60 in the Tacoma.

Would the Supra engine even fit under the hood due to its height?

I don't know which would be the kiss of death first - height or length, but one of them is going to make it impossible.
