I found my supra on yahoo auto. Mine is an auto, and i too want to convert it to a manual. I'm not a big fan of how the automatic performs with the supra, the shifting is kinda jittery, and can be really jittery depending on how old it is, but car drives absolutley wonderfully otherwise. A big of caution about the targa top, my friend has a targa top, and it goes through gaskets rather quickly. We live in Oregon though, with lots o' rain, you might have a little better use were you live if it's drier. If you keep looking, I'm sure you'll find a manual sooner or later, it's much more worth it to wait and find a manual than doing a conversion. If you do a conversion, you then rely on the knowledge and skill of the shop you take your car too, unless you're doing the conv. yourself, which then you just pay for parts. How this helps...

I found my supra a couple weeks ago on craigslist and found a gem . and you can look locally or regionally.
