That's not bad.
The reason why I am asking is my friend is interested in getting a Cressy.

Mine are a bit older,but paid $400 for one and $500 for the other,both in great shape with minor mechanical issues when I got them.They are fun cars(4-door supras like wesbeech says)A lot of parts are interchangeable with the supras of like years/engine codes,they handle surprisingly well,upgrades and swaps are generally the same as they would be in a supra,and IMO have a cool style to them,although I'm more partial to the ~'84 body style.

Yeah I like the 84-87 AND the newer body style myself. But I saw two of wes' body style at a drift event in englishtown, nj. both with 1j swaps. Yours looked good but it seemed like u got an open diff or an inop lsd. I think mine went on my MK3 and it looked similar doin donuts. Hey wes, did you change to low comp pistons or just put on a GTE block?

Well its got a good rebuild lsd but there is so much body roll due to blown shock some times it just shifts to much weght around to be able to get both tires. But its an na block with turbo pistons.

is that a hx35w holset? that's the turbo i'm running on my 7m buildup. came off of an 01 Dodge cummins. if so, would you be interested in making a turbo mani for me?

NM. I now see it is a H1C. if it is T3 flange would you still make a turbo mani?

Well today i got in my valve springs.

I love how toyota makes life easy. O you need to shim your head here use these SST's to depress the lifter bucket then put this one in to hold it down while you pop the shim out. God that makes my life easy.

Yeah,bought them 7years ago,(they are listed as one tool),first thing I did with my MK3 was the valve shims.I think the guy cut me a "special" deal 'cause I had just bought a toolbox from him also.I think they normally cost a little more.
