    Rims are hideous and bonnet pins seem a bit tacky too. Good luck with it mate.

    why would you go thru all the effort to turbo this motor, to put a 2jz in down the track? plan ahead and dont burn ur cash unless u have a money tree lol and in that case share it around

    Interesting plans, but why replace the diff? The Grande diff is decent as it is.. Also, I hope you pull this off. I see too many ugly shitty Cressidas.

    I like that you're organised. I've organised a 50ft luxury sailing catamaran, I've just got to pay for it.

    What did you pay for this? Head unit goes well with the interior, too. Pretty clean

    i dont know that id even bother fucking around with a dodgy 5m head swap....?

    manual 7mge should be alright and fairly reliable (as long as the HG has been done properly).

    the only reason im going 5mge head is so i can use his custom intake and the turbo would hit the dizzy on the 7mge head the 5mge head will have a little work to make up for being 5mge and not 7mge really just quick and cheap

    the deal was if i get a cressida he will sell me his setup and he will go buy a 1uzfe for his car and well i got a cressy so he went and bought a 1uzfe now just waiting to have some spare dollars
