It understeers to all buggery, and body rolls to the sh!thouse.
I'm sure with time and money spent it could be done.
But the point I am trying to make, is that you have two almost identical case.
The MA61 and the MX73.
There is about 100kg weight difference, which isn't a HUGE amount when you look at the over all weight. Its only about 8% more.
Most of this will be from the firewall back, as I can't see anywhere from firewall forward where it could be.
And in the case of my car vs mate 2jzge ma61, I can guarentee you I had less weight over the front wheels.
Now put the SAME suspension in the cars, and the MA61 will reign supreme over the MX73.
Find out this reason why, and you'll be well on your way to getting the cressida to handle.
From what I could tell while comparing things, they run the same struts, the same lower control arms, (which are spaced the same distance apart), and the same camber, so I would presume that the strut tops are very similar in orientation.
The MA61 has about 2" more distance between the firewall and the strut towers, but the same distance between the strut towers and the radiator.
The MX73 has a longer overall wheelbase (driveshaft is about 2" longer, can't remember exact value)
I never really compared the rear end, but I doubt its very much different.
The MX73 also runs 2mm thicker swaybars front and rear compared to the MA61
