Its got a 1J, built head (cams, porting, etc.) and 'stock' twin turbos which were rebuilt, more agressive blade trims were used so it doesnt run out of juice at 5700.

What gen of Cressy do you have?

The farthest my car has made it into BC is Kootenay Lake. There is an imposter afoot haha.

Thanks. I may get some eventually, both cars are a mess, Cresta has nothing there, floor needs paint, and the Soarer is missing a center console.

MX83's are a great platform. I was trying to buy my friends for the longest time but she wouldnt part with it. So I bought a JZX.

Both sweet cars and I like the rims on the SC. Where did all those paint chips come from? Are there a lot of rock roads up there? See a little ice on the road action and pow! I like the Florida weather no snow or ice.

Thanks man.

The paint on both cars ****ing sucks. I blew up the front bumper on the Soarer when I hit a chunk of ice last spring, and half *** fixed it as I dont really like the body kit. The Cresta is a battle car, it is not treated well. The paint was bad to begin with, im just helping it along. They will both be re-done when I find I have enough patience for body work

No, it isnt a Cressida per se. The usdm model was based off of the Japanese ones. They share a lot of bits and pieces, and the chassis are mostly the same. The JDM models were beefed up to deal with the extra engine, and there are 3 main different models, the Cresta, the Mark 2, and most commonly known, the Chaser. Its sort of common practice to swap the Mark2 front end (the one I have on my Cresta) onto the MX83 Cressida (last gen made). Or something like that.
