lookin good man

 

looks sick man. really diggin the blue on white. this looks A LOT like 09socaltc's clean job man. only thing is, im not really a big fan of the yellow overlay thing on the fogs. but other than that, dope ride. keep it up.

 

i lol'd at the "looks like 09socaltc" thing.

 

LOL you do know that 09socal basically jocked ktothesas right?

 

btw i shipped your **** the other day. should be getting it next week

 

good lookin out bro! cant wait to get it

 

bawwwwahahah

 

picked up sweet parts and some temporary wheelios. the holidays have been good to me =)

 

very nice. how is she running?

 

runs kinda like sh*t. the rear end has some probs. clunking when i let off the gas quickly. ive pinpointed it to the driveline and the diff. needs a new tranny too.

 

wheels finally mounted. fenders ghetto rolled with a bat and a nail hammer =)

going to sort out the motor problems.

 

finally put some money into the car. built my coilovers the other day. no more bumpy ____ on the road.


heres the oe struts. i was probably the first person to touch these since the tech in japan 25 yrs ago.


after a bunch of measuring and cutting heres the mock up of the finished product. welded em together. now i have my suspension travel back and damper/ride height adjustments.

more pics to come soon

 

whoa its been hellla long since ive been on here.

heres the current stuff happening with my cressida

finally 5 speeded it




got rid of those awful chinese wheels and picked up some new wheels as well.

15x8.5 15x9

currently debating the welded vs lsd. i plan on taking it to thunderhill next month if all goes well

 

Just weld it, find a place that does warranties on their work though

 

lookin pretty sweet. Hows the motor running? I dig those older toyotas. Ive recently become obsessed with the older volvo 240 sedans... I love the look of those things too. esp w/ a v8 swap, cant stop thinking about it.

 

I'm liking the DIY coilovers. There is a local junkyard that has a 87 Cressida for sale with 104,000 miles on it looking pretty good all around, engine bay was even clean. I asked the price and was told it's been sold, they're just fixing a few things before giving it to the buyer. They were asking $2,500, oh well maybe next time.

 

the motor is running pretty good. i replaced most of the seals, so the burning/leaking has stopped for now. i do have an electrical short somewhere in the steering column as well as a fuel issue. sometimes it just takes a few more seconds to crank at cold start.

 

i need to go with a different tire size.

 

that's gangsta man
looks nice

 

damn that's dope!
