well upon removing my stock bell housing to bolt up my 1jz one i noticed oil in the bellhousing...i beleive its leaking fom the front seal where the input shaft is because theres oil all on the inside of my bell housing and no where else..so im just wondering how hard is it to change the front seal on a r154?

Easier than making pie. Just need a seal and some orange toyota fipg.
Seal in question. The orange fipg from toyota was specifically made for the trans so i would only suggest using it along with toyota seal. (which is 6-7$ max each)

Removal: http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?S=MT&P=52 (they remove the bellhousing first, I don't think it needs to be removed to pull it out, but I can't be sure)

Install: http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?S=MT&P=84 (notice the notes on where to put the packing on the cover and what sealants to use on the cover and bolts, and torque specs)

Its easier to remove the bolts with the bellhousing removed. Unless you like using a foot+ of extensions on a 12mm bolt thats not exactly torqued tight but been sitting for years.
Not need but easier. Shitty impact can take off and install without over torquing. And by shitty im mean shitty.
Well if don't like smearing the Toyota FIPG silicone, so I rather remove it. It is only nine 14MM bolts
On second thought, might be better to remove the bellhousing so you can properly clean the surfaces. You're going to want to clean the gear oil out of it anyway...
