Default W57 Swap??

Has anyone swapped in a W57 trans into a stock auto car? I’ve seen tons of people do a w58 haven’t found anyone with a w57. A few questions... Will the bell housing for JZ engines fit the W57? Any differences between the 2 other than gear rations (strength, shifter locations, etc.) and lastly will it even work? Thanks for any helpful. Info!!!

w57 bolts up the same as any other W series transmission. So the jz bell will fit,bolt pattern on all W series transmissions is the same. G series are also the same bolt pattern..
You will have to swap out the shifter assembly to make it work.
