I was actually going to paint it two-tone black on silver. Then I remembered my 02 4Runner (black) how hard it was to clean and keep clean so I ditched the dark colors. I'm going to paint it a thunder metallic grey. All the lights will be tinted with the windows and the grill will be painted a...

Ok, lets go in order for today. As far as the gold Cressida, I started slapping the pistons and the rods together to gettem ready to go in the freshly bored block.
You like my new 5spd Solara? ;)
Now for the blue one. Finished the tail-light mod and bolted the supports for the front JDM...
OOPs Sorry.
Heres the link to the Cressida forum. DM-Slider is currently working on a full JDM body kit shiped from Japan for the Cressida. The wing is a TRD wing designed for the Cressida in the USA bu the factory that molded them burned so that never made it to market...
Updates. Member requested some closeups of the pistons: Rock Pistons btw
Some better pix of the emblem install. Brian also told me that the flap-less Cressida is hotter so I removed them just for him ;)
Most likely, next week it should be in the booth for a paintjob. After that...
The block was decked first, when I got it back them marks werent there. I was actually wondering when I took it back to the machine shop if they swapped me blocks or something after the overbore. I did know it was the same block because my block is unique. It has one of a kind rust spots in...
Thank you all. I try to do my best to keep Toyotas original flagship cars, the Cressida and Supra, alive and impressive. I just wish Moe (suprastanger507mgte) would bring his Cressida to life. Toss a 1JZ in it!!
Damn, I wanted to use that cermaic coat... #$@%^#$^
Now that I'm done venting, heres the thread made for u ;)

Blue Cressida 7M-GTE
Thanks to one of the members, I drove 340 miles round trip in the middle of nowhere for...
Thanks alot, It took me 2hrs to read most of this thread. Its now 4am and I still havent slept! I'm in getting close to painting my project Cressy and I need to know if that ceramic clear coat is wetsandable?
BTW, Your friggin build is AWESOME!! But I do have to mark you down for skipping the...
Jump E1-TE1 under the hood on the driver side strut tower. Stick a paper clip in there, then go sit down inside the car with all accessories off and put the key in the "on" position. The Check engine light will blink. You count how many times it blinks. For example:
[] [] [] [] [] *pause* []...
My car did this. It would idle just a tad bit rough and when I take it for a drive and punch it, the engine is bogged down, yet you hear the turbo spooling like crazy. I found out i had the coupler from under the turbo was busted. It'd build boost cuz you can hear it, but engine is bogging down...
LOL I got a huge exhaust leak from my manifold on my turbo Cress. Some of the studs are missing, so I'm hoping probably my knocking noise is from there.
