Yes, it will be N/A 7m this summer. Yes I will put nitrous on it. Yes I will keep incresing the jet size until the pistons make their way out the intake and exhaust ports of the head, or the head lifts so high I need a new hood

almost makes me miss my x8

I like the way the color "pops" in the first pic..

also, what size is that wheel? 330?

[cianide]

The wheel is a 330, and I must say I like the size much better than the one I had in my ls1 240sx. I would get in my 240 after driving my Cressida and I felt like I was at the helm of a cruise ship.

[cianide]

I bought another car which doesn't run, so its taking priority right now (rb26 240sx). I got about half way through a speaker install before parking it outside and tossing the car cover on it.

Update Time:

Since I bought another car, I had to move the Cressida outside for a bit while I got this other car up and running. I've finally finished the stereo installation and I must say I am quite happy with it. I still have to install a relay so I can get some DVD while driving action, but the components sound nice and the install went well.









I've also FINALLY gotten around to removing the front suspension from the car, and having my buddy prep/weld the knuckles for me. I've been extremely busy with work, house and family shit so the car has been on jack stands for about 3 weeks now. Hope to get it back on the road this week. I've also managed to pick up some extended wheel studs, which I figure is just one of those, 'as long as its already out' kind of things. Also have some new brake lines and some SerialNine RCA's on the way.







Picked up some new parts despite not even being finished with the current ones I have. Got a good condition R154 for when the time comes, and also a JZ-R154 bellhousing.





I picked up these 300zx brakes off another cressida owner who was parting out his car. They already have the brackets and the spacer rings installed as well. As soon as I get my new brake lines and my RCAS these will be going on and the car can finally be taken off the jack stands.



I also FINALLY recieved my rear roof spoiler from DM. Positively SICK. Can't wait to put this on...



Before the front end of the car touches the ground again I am also going to slap the header on it. I also intend to install the AFC that I recently bought for it as well. After that I'll probably install my old NAWZZZZ system on it and see if I can blow the head gasket out of it before it has a chance to fail on me. I just can't see taking out a perfectly good running motor, even if it is horribly under powered.

you'd think it'd be the other way around

[rayray]

i like how the cressida feels/steers. you want a cruise ship get a cadillac. in comparison my cressida feels like a kart compared to my old seville. feels like you're driving around with 500 gallons of water sloshing around inside
