MX73, MX83 Comparison, Compatibility Thu, 03 February 2005 06:03 Go to previous message
Hi everybody, new to the forums via the Cressida forums. I currently own an 85 Cressida, which I purchased about 2 months ago. It burns a bit of oil, lots of strange electrical problems while maybe not hard to fix, may also be very hard to fix. Weird squeaks and rattles so on and so forth. It does run fairly well, although when first started has to be warmed up or it bogs down under acceleration. I've read about all the different swaps, and have decided to, instead of buying an S13 or an AE86, I want to stick with a Cressida, for the JZ series motor. However, and here's the actual question of my post, which platform is better for the JZ swap? An MX73 or an MX83? It seems the MX83 (or GX81 I'm not sure, very confused about so many different codes for essentially the same car) seems to have a heap more parts (including body kits) than the older Cressidas/Chasers/Mark IIs. Which brings us to the next question, which parts are interchangeable from the MX83 to the MX73 in terms of suspension? How much HP can these cars withstand reliably? Am I better off getting rid of my not-running-so-well 73 and getting an 83 instead? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Very Happy
