Alright so I've been lurking on the forum for a bit, but now it's time to show you guys what I'm working with. I recently picked this up in a straight trade for my E28.

The oldie:


1986 Toyota mx73 Cressida.

5mge unknown mileage cluster stopped working god knows when.
5 speed conversion (lovely auto brake pedal)
megan coils
dildo shift knob
open diff
shitty interior
rattle can paint job

Game plans:

daily drifter
more low
wheels
new steering wheel
bucket seats
swap-2jzge
front end face lift
new door moldings
new paint
weld diff
z32 brake setup
interior help

typical maintenance bs
commence daily drift

finally







plenty of updates to come. Any help from you guys would be greatly appreciated. Im currently just daily driving her and collecting parts for the 2j swap..... with that said here is my inspiration for the build..

Got some wheels for a price I couldn't that I couldn't pass up. They are 15x10 all the way around. Ordering some 195/45/15 this week. These are temporary for now until funds are right.

On the red x71 mark 2, what diffuser is that? It looks like an upside down trunk spoiler, it seems pretty popular in japan.

It shouldn't be too hard to get your cressy looking like that mark 2, just fill the holes, paint the car, shorten the bumpers, paint the bumpers, ganador style mirrors, the funky diffuser, and new wheels.

This car has lots of potential, can't wait to see what you do

I believe it is some sort of trunk spoiler I have to see my options on this one, but I'm looking forward to progress slowly but surely it will take some shape

I know haha the wait is real.. and not so hot news tires are on back order according to tire rack so those will be delayed slightly.

That rear diffuser is a Japanese GX71 Cresta/Mark II rear valance. My brother thought about ordering one, and is still looking into it after getting the sideskirts.
