Behind a normal engine, just get Penrite manual gear oil. Somewhere in that region.
When you go and get it, there will be a book there telling what to use in what boxes. Just follow that.
If the box is behind a powerful engine, get Redline Lightweight Shockproof oil.

SAE 80W/90 Gear Oil, API GL-5 is all you need in a Supra 'box.
This standard stuff in available everywhere, you will need 2.5 litres of it too.

Those other oil's mentioned above are all good stuff. They have the same or better spec's than the figures I quoted you. If you don't need specialist stuff, just get the Valvoline, Castrol or Shell stuff that meets those numbers.
4 litres will cost $20 to $28, and with the 1.5litres you have left, change the diff oil at the same time, it usually needs just 1 litre.
