Default W58 questions!

What's up guys?
I'm originally on the GS forums since I own a 93, but I usually lurk in here to see the good things, anyways I just bought an used W58 and it came with the bellhousing only, since these are known to be in the sc300 I thought you guys would know, how do I find out what car the trans came out of? And also how do I find out what bellhousing I have? I want to know what car it came out of for curiosity, but the bellhousing, the guy said he thinks it's a 1jz, and I wanted to know if that's compatible with a 2jz, what things beside the shifter, slave cylinder, master cylinder, and pedal assembly would I need to buy before I can start doing my swap?

Thanks in advance

Ok, lets settle some things here. I believe the 1JZ never came with a W58. Only an R154. So that really doesn't make since.
I personally don't know how to tell what car it came out of, but pictures will help. The back of the transmission is different from the MKIII and the SC/supra W58.

As for the swap-there are a few threads in the 1GS section on how to do it. Its a lot different than SC stuff. They already have "predrilled" holes in their firewalls, we do not. We also have a floor mounted E-brake, they do not. Its quite different honestly. I would lerk back over into the 1GS subforum. I can help you out, just let me know what you need.

It either came from: NA 2JZ SC300, NA MKIII Supra 7M, or some other possibility.

No turbo Toyota car ever came with the W58, they either had an R154 or V160/161. (Not talking about the 1G motor, cause that was a dog)
