Here are some pics: 2007ish































Well after a few thousand dollars over the last few years I've decided i'm putting money into a dieng 7M. Low compression in Cyl. 4 and 5. Distributor leaking oil, crack coolant tube pipe (not hose) between the engine and firewall, oil in my spark plugs (needs boot seals done), and worst of all.. Automatic...

So its JZ time. More pics on page 2.

That is a beautifully kept car! Seems like you are on the right path. Great intro thread too.




Welcome

[MentalStruggle04]

Thank you. And actually, through browsing these forums, I came across a post saying you could do 1jz+mx83 wiring? Is this true?

That is a beautifully kept car! Seems like you are on the right path. Great intro thread too.




Welcome

[redbullx83]

Very nice welcome.

[Mo]

Holy crap, what motor is that?

[Hen(Tai)]

Did your grandparents shave off the Toyota logo?
Welcome.

[CelicaDRIFTER]

wow. super clean!

[rayray]

probably repainted. emblem looks to be slightly off of its original location. but then again i haven't looked at the ass of my cressida in the past 6 months

[MentalStruggle04]

Nah those emblems dont need to be shaved they aren't permanent. I just removed the emblem as a whole and left the cressida logo. Don't want people thinking its an old Corolla or somethin. It's a cressida! It's a 7M-GE just well taken care of for a 20 year old engine. Either way it's not as mint condition anymore which is why a 1JZ sits in my garage being restored.

[mcfizzle]

FINALLY a decent intro.

[Jason]

7M-GE! No shit?!!?

[iw86]

Welcome. Clean looking car bro, wish mine was that clean with gray trim and interior.. Also looks like you have been doing your homework. Congrats lol cya around.

[spooklover69]

this thing is FUCKIN FRESH ........ do you have any plans for rims or suspension????? post some pics of the build lookin good!

[MentalStruggle04]

I dont have any pics of the build yet. I'm doin this by myself and my only camera is my phone. I don't want to get oil and crap all over my iphone! I'll take pictures before I start workin on it tomorrow. I'll probably be going with S9 coilovers and 17" idkwhats with +idkwhatoffset. I'll figure that out after I get this JZ alive. For now I'm trying to figure out what to do about the harness. I can't seem to get in contact with Guy Smiley or Aphxero (Mark, right?). I'll keep everyone posted

[ChriSOL]

I don't want to get oil and crap all over my iphone!

Pussy. It wipes right off mine.

[JDM CRESS]

thats forkin clean!

[TougeCrameryRollinNice]

put some jz & S9 in your minty cress and you'll get doubled rainbowed ALL DAY!!



totally freshida.

[CRES]

Welcome!

Your car is so mint and well kept.

[MentalStruggle04]

So I got a nice little check and I bought the rest of what I need except a 91 7MGE Cressida Harness. My cress is my daily so I don't want to pull the harness if I don't have to. As soon as I can get another 7M harness in my hands I'll be sending it out with the JZ harness to be converted. Either way with the parts bought and a few more tools purchased I was able to make some more progress.

Goodbye old 1JZ Hydraulic pump


Hello 2JZ shiny pump!


Well with that done next is front seal, then cam seals, then timing belt. I need to go to the store to buy star shaped bolts, an air compressor, air impact gun, air die grinder, cut off wheels, hose, etc. Then ill be able to mount my clutch pedal, mod the bumper for the FMIC, take off my flywheel to have resurfaced, and change my rear main seal. I have oil buildup all over the Power Steering and A/C housings as well. Anyone know of a common culprit?

[GRAFH]

looks clean.
