well im not goin for fastest manual cressida down the 1/4... but if i lived down there.. id want my car to be coolest cressida sliding at QR.....i just wanna do sideways stuff... ol mate on last page was tlaking bout buying mine?? but ive decided to keep it.. id be keen on cressida cruise and drag meet.. if only i wasnt 600kms away. do you guys reckon i should be able to make 400-450hp with my HKS t04r - its the old bush bearing type... 48mm turbosmart progate..and all the rest to support it. im not happy with 385hp at 24psi. doesnt seem right. a hks to4r is basically the same as my turbo and i make 450rwhp at the tires 19psi and pump fuel through a big convertor, i do have camshafts but yours should be making more power than that, so somethng isnt right with your set up |

sleepy what diff ratio are you using? i got 3:9:1 seem to be topping just over 200 4.3 ratio and third gear tops out to about 220kmh. thats at about 9000rpm but. being that you have 2jz i presume you only rev it to around 8000-8500rpm? for the times your chasing at the drags 210kmh is all you will need to run low 10's |

Anymore news with everyones cressidas? Mine is currently in the shop getting a new gate put on, brake reservoir tank installed, battery relocated, 4" intake made etc. On the offisde bought another head to have the 264 cams put in, upgraded valve springs and gears, with a slight port. Can't wait. Just want to finally get this turbo pushing 25psi +. After that, i will probably be getting into aftermarket ecu territory, and might start breaking stuff. not really for me. i just bought a new daily so been playing around with that but ill be getting into the cressy over the easter break. |

Looking for coilovers any help?? And also want to do a mx83 hub conversion so any pms with help or parts would be great Don't know about the mx83 hub conversion but I used the crown ms123 hubs and was pretty straight forward. You can also go the ford ba rotors on the front with r33 calipers. Just need to get the right size wheel hub rings and the brake lines can still be retained. (just need to bend them slightly and they bolt straight up) Coilovers you can talk to ajps in SA. they will make them for you. Are you thinkin of going far with the mx73, or just going to be a cruiser? Everytime I see 1jz or 2jz even now, they are gettin more accessible and price is quite reasonable. even parts that ya need for convo. e.g., I just bought a 2jzgte computer ingniter and loom I am looking at which all comes under 200 bucks. 2jz engine I am also looking at which is currently around 1500 bucks. comes with turbos, ecu loom and autobox. Can't go wrong with that with a 2jz. All you need then is custom tailshaft, jzx81 engine mounts, wiring, mods on the power steering, and AC to suit and fair bit of time consuming fiddly shit, but you would work it out. I haven't had a 7mge before, but I can't see it being too far off a 5mge and it gave me the shits how sluggish it was. can't be happier with a 2jz |

And i only chose the 7mge cause it was cheap and an easy upgrade and closer with the p plate laws than a 2j more noticeable in the bay then a 7m. |

well i need to get a power steering hose made up for my mx83 I have the passenger side resevoir to install then just need the 2 hoses made up, what cost should I be looking at and do I just take the car to the hose shop or ?? And to top it off i think my trans is acting up a bit when its changing gear, feels like it slips for ages then fuly engages and away we go especially the 2nd-3rd shift what sort of cost do people pay for all the parts to make up a r154 conversion? I would be installing myself cheers guys for the hoses i just measured how long i needed and then went down to a hose place and got them to make up what i needed. cost me about 100 from memory. r154 setup is not overly cheap by the time you get a box (upto 2000) clutch (standed 200-300? good heavy single plate $800 upto a twin plate $2000)then you got to get pedals, tailsharft extended $250ish. best bet is to look around for someone selling a r154 with clutch and put it in yours and will be much cheaper. or you can just get a mv auto box for about 3200? that will last. |

put my car on the dyno on saturday and made 480rwhp on 23psi will real traction problems on the dyno would smoke the tires no matter how hard or soft we strapped it. will put it on again this weekend and 30psi, will try again with these tires and if it still wants to spin will try a different set of tires. even if we cant get a true reading on the dyno MPH at the drags will give us a power figure |
