i honestly had my insurance run out on my 180, so instead of renewing it i hit up kijiji toronto and found the cressida listed for 500 bucks. I went to take a look at it and it woldnt run or go into gear. Dude straight up said take it for 300. Turns out there was a hole in the intake tube(car is MAF, so you can see the issue there) and the trans was fucked…but donedreaming hooked me up with someone who 5speed swapped there cressida and i scored a mint transmission for 40 bucks. All said and done with the help of Pants I have put a little under 400 dollars in to this car and about 16 hours of work. Swapping trans/lowering/rolling fenders/fixing intake. Also everyday i look at this car i fall more and more in love with it. Toyota Chaser bumpers and front ends are bolt on swaps like silvia front ends, Honda Accord side skirts bolt up and in less then a month or so this car should be 5speed. another thing i came across is that you can pretty much bolt up s14 front suspension spindles lcas and everything, just have to drill a hole for TC rod…can anyone say z32 brakes on a toyota ;)😉 ---

Well its been setteled, Im going to 1jz-gte the cressida. Grab some ghetto coilovers and see how this bitch holds out next year fro drifting. That is, if it makes it threw the winter lol. Going to be lots of snow drifting so we will see! Also you guys that say you want one, try driving in one, you will die for it after that! ---

Still debating whether I need a beater. If it’s cheaper then getting winters, I’d consider this and take one for a test drive. All north american produced cressida are automatic, correct? I also wouldn’t mind a YJ for winter. mmmmm.snow drifting…where it all started. lol. ---
