Unlike most people, the stats on left are not fake or made up. These are the stats I got from the standing mile in Arizona, some guy helped me get a faster mph by doing some tune ups, borrowing his tires and ecu, which disable the rev limiter,he gave me racing fuel mix with regular gasoline and some shot of nos and the entire car was stripe down to carpet besides the drive seat .In 4th and final gear of my A340e trans I revved up to 7698 rpm, at 153.34 mph, that was fastest I ever driven in any car. After that run I destroyed my bearings and blow three of my spark plugs, and melted two of my vacuum hoses, tough engine, I had to send it to a shop which me costed $350, but the guy that helped paid more than half of the damage because he really wanted to see what a cressida can really do since he heard rumors about it being as quick as the supra, I guess he was convinced.

The next step is the suspension replacing the struts and the springs. If anyone knows where i can get some new performance struts please let me know.

Quote: the red switch is not nitrous. any one uses nitro is cheap. I'll never need it. Its actually for the MSD 6AL-2 ignition molecule for the 2 Step launch control HELL YEA

Relocating the battery for weight distribution. Unfortunately it took me more than 8 hours to did it because of lack of supply and transportation.

Now for more than a year i haven't really done anything major for my car, but how this for a modication

STREET90's 1990 Toyota Cressida

A 5 speed tranny from a 1991 supra

STREET90's 1990 Toyota Cressida

Everything here is going on the cressy, I almost have everything just need the H-beam Rods, forgings, stage 2 cams, stainless steel valves with titanium retainers and dual valve springs. custom exhaust and intake manifold, rims, masc. etc. electronics, and one piece carbon fiber drive shaft.

JDM black racing seats with 4 point harness. In the middle is a carbon fiber arm rest. And all with red stitching. 

STREET90's 1990 Toyota Cressida

Two more items to go to make the tranny swap. Im doing everything for this car on a time to time budget so everything is coming slow

Below are the items I have so far collected for the transmission

ECU: off an 86 supra

Clutch pedal assembly: off the same 86 supra

Aluminum fly wheel: ebay

 5 speed w58 transmission: off a 91 supra (two minutes before it got crushed)
