I believe the 81 supra was the year that toyota started putting the straight 6's in the celicas. If memory serves me correctly the first 6 was a sohc vice dohc hence it was called the 5me and when it grew the second cam it gained the 5mge.
Somewhere along the way a bigger crank was dropped in the 5mge and it gained a new moniker of 6mge, though I believe this was never available stateside.
Third gen supras which dropped the celica-supra tag altogether got an engine revamp and were sporting 7mge and everyones favorite 7mgTe.
There's still a small following for the older celica-supra's as I understand it, as a friend of mine is undertaking a 7mgTe transplant into his project car.
Wow talk about rambling, anyway... short answer no there was no V6 option in the celica-supra.
