trans fluid change question...
On my supra, you could just pull the stick out and pour the fluid right in. Is this a possibility with the fd as well? I can NOT for the life of me get that friggin filler plug out without stripping it.

No. Pulling the shifter only allows you to fill a small reservoir on the tailhousing.
Just confirming, the fill plug is a square-head [B]male[B] plug.....not the recessed plug with the square socket.
Trev, where in Nebraska are you located? Out of town until Monday, but maybe I can help. PM me if you want.

Hey Jim, what's up man? I know about you from Jon Fitz and Bryan. I just sold my supra 1jz and bought my FD. I would really love some help if you could. I am located in omaha at Lake Cunningham. I would greatly appreciate your help and knowledge. You can give me a shout if you have the chance. Thanks Jim,

If you can't get the *correct* filler plug out, hit it with some penetrating oil. But like Sgtblue said, it's a male fitting so use a monkeywrench and be done with it.
When you go to put it back in, use teflon tape or silicone sealant and don't torque it as tight.
