I am thinking about picking up a x7 or x8 as a spare missle car. I got a 5 speed swap and lsd in my garage sitting in my garage. I am just having a little trouble desiding on what would be the better choice.
I love my Jzx81 but I spend so much time getting this bitch working right I do not want to fuck it up or have any down time on it. I had enough of that last year.

keep x7's clean... turn x8 into missle car... alot easier to come by in already trashed condition
Cars: 85 Cressida (broke), 86 Cressida (1jz), 02 is300 (2jz)

I finally got some decent cressidas for sale in my aera for decent prices. X7 I can run 15s on and use cheep rubber but its got a 5m with a lot less power. X8 has more power but are usally more expencive.
Kinda wish I didnt send my free x7 to the junkyard but it was fucked. Most of the X7 out here are faily rusty if you can find a running one.

for something reliable you can beat the crap out of I'd go X8. Better rear suspension setup and stronger diff.

-1987 AE86 Corolla with 20 valve swap SOLD
-1985 MX73 Cressida 1JZ big single swap breaking diffs on the regular
Toysport and 935 Motorsports suck. Don't buy from either.

fuck i wish i lived where there's no rust. i can't even get either without travalling.
i vote x8, for a missile, probably cost less to actually work. but it would all come down to condition/price before anything.

I've been eyeing this one for a while, which is a kind of rare color for Canada (if you're looking at x8's): http://www.usedvictoria.com/classified-ad/...essida_12231883
I seriously need to pick up another chassis without rust. I'm sick of having a rusty car.

We live in Alberta dude, not Cali. We don't have a good selection of cressida's in good condition. When something like that black x8 shows up, buy buy buy, or keep your rusty x84life son.
