Transmission Help

Hey guys. I recently bought a non-turbo 1986 Supra (7mge motor). It needs a lot of work, but I want to start with the manual 5 speed transmission. When I turn on the engine, I can shift through all the gears without out even pressing the clutch and I hear no grinding noises. When I do press the clutch, I can still go through all the gears, but the car never actually moves. I figured it just needed a new clutch but it worries me that I can shift through all the gears with the engine on and the clutch not pressed. Does anyone know what the problem is? Does it just needs a new clutch kit? Or do I need a whole new transmission? I also think there are two types of manual transmissions for the 1986 supra, but I dont know how to tell which I have.
Thanks guys!
