nice cressida... BUT... would be nicer if you did something like this to it:


and this




is it a five speed by chance? they're kind of rare as a 5spd in the states, at least around oregon they are

Where did you get those drop forks? I gotta get some!

~sp33~

I don't think i've ever seen a manual Cressida anywhere. I'm near certain that they didn't sell them with the choice of manual in Australia.

~sp33~

They're out of production, so you'll have to snag a second hand set.

Wow, that's my favorite EF 4 door now.

Yeah they were rair and far and few between but they did come as 5spds in the states. most people use Supra pedals trannies and drivelines as swaps tho. I almost bought a factory 5psd Cressida, but the guy never mailed me back.

think about it, Cressida's have lot's of potential.

back on topic, your sedan is lookin SICK!!

Just a quick update, I got the Cressida running mint, the radiator i bought for it was 60% blocked so it was overheating on long trips. Runs sweet now though!

The Civic is gathering dust, i drove it for the first time in a couple of weeks yesterday. I'll be paying more attention to it soon

Also a mate got me some hectic photography equipment for my 21st, so there will be a decent photoshoot coming up soon with another mate who just bought an extremely clean 91 35xt limited edition.

Ok... So everyone knows how much of a PITA the crank pulley bolt is. I devised a cunning plan to thread in a fly wheel bolt (Thanks V!) and then brace it with a spanner against the engine stand to prevent the crank from spinning while i'm jumping on the breaker bar. Here's what it looked like:



and zoomed out to give a bit more perspective:



I was a bit concerned at first about shearing the flywheel bolt, but it was thread in a fair way and it was loose enough that it could be removed with a set of pliers if things got ugly.

So, HEAVE:



OMG, no way:



And i owe it to this little guy with his cursid irreplicable thread pitch (look how fine it is!)



So i started pulling more parts off of the block, removed the timing belt, water pump and cams. I want the head removed too, so that won't be far. Once it's all apart i can plan what i want to do before i piece it back together!
