[Supra28]

Damn, makes me want a DD Cressy!

 

[Emilian]

Love the wheels!

 

[pimpinx7]

thanks for the complements guys!! make me feel like its all worth it to see that im not the only person who likes it!

 

[pimpinx7]

Love the wheels!

they are rota rb's.. 17x9 -13 fronts and 9.5 -19 rears with 205/40s

 

[Suprapowaz!(2)]

Cool project. Love the wheels. Do not like the tire fitment. The bead of the tire doesn't even go to the edge of the rim. Is that safe? Oh, and too much negative camber for me. But it's your ride and it's what you like. Are you gonna keep the 5m, or going to swap it out with something different?

 

[85celicasupra]

Sick ride man.

Interested in boosting it? Pm me...I am yanking most of a turbo setup off my 5mgte so I can go much bigger.

 

[pimpinx7]

well.. i have been around the stance/fitment/drift scene mostly for several years now, so its just the style i picked up and cant shake lol! ( not saying i want to).. and i think for now im going to stay 5m.. just to keep things simple.. but boosting it with just mostly stock 7mgte stuff of doing itb's either one are kinda on a future"if i buy a daily" plan

 

[pimpinx7]

got some paint on my fender!!!!

not quite a good match since my doors have faded a couple shades since 1987 lol!

[xzeror]

I love your Cressida, that's why next project

 

[85celicasupra]

well keep the 5m if you boost it. You will love it.
I got a 500whp 5m in the build right now. DIYautotune offers a plug and play megasquirt..well worth it.

If you decide you want to boost it, contact me, I will probably have a good handful of stuff to do so.

I will be watching this thread.
Sick ride.

 

[pimpinx7]

how much is the megasquirt from them? or how much did you pay? at work were going to build a car for the owned of diy.. hope i can get a sweet deal.

 

[MK3.0dudeman]
