Turbo Cressida

[thermo_47]

Hey!

Has anyone got or does anyone know of any turbo Toyota Cressida's? I've heard around the place that you can get a supra manifold to fit and therefore turbo the stock engine, but I was thinking more along the lines of swapping the engine for the twin turbo Supra engine.. Anyone done the swap successfully? And what kind of times do you run?

7mge in cressidas is the same as the mkIII supra turbo engine. so yes it is possible to turbo them. if you read up on the cressida forums, i believe youll find that the general belief there is to go with the 1jzgte for the 1jz all-motor. there is even a vid around this forum of a guy with 1jzgte cressida smoking a mustang i think. i dont know much about the cressida... all i know is that its got mad potential in many different ways.

there is a bunch of stuff for the 5m-ge and 6m-ge for the older cressidas because they use the old mkii supra engine. look at: http://www.rabidchimp.com/ a lot of that stuff should work.

I wish I kept that vid up, but can't due to bandwidth restraints

Generally, what you can do to a Supra, you can do do a Cressida, but not everything. 1JZ and 2JZ swaps are much more painful into a Cress than into a Supra.
