In reply to Rod, in the post that was locked.
Cressida cost me $4k including the Intercooler for the conversion.
Had the car for 9 months, $444.44 a month.
So yeah it does cost a bit if you put it that way. Lets hope i don't keep spending that sort of money for the next 4 years or i'll be up to 21k and running a low 7

thanks mate... i'm gonna have a break now from spending. Well that is after the Y pipes and up the boost to 16psi. Should run a 12.7 ( going of Joe's LIMO )
After that , when i'm ready to waste more money and feel like some serious 1/4 times, i'll do the single turbo and build a strong gearbox. Cost maybe 5k with aftermarket ecu, should be good for a 11 then.
She's nice to drive for a big brick, i still sit back and love it heaps. Like sitting in a rocking chair, but with the wind beneath your wings.

Luke,
That sounds heaps cool!
Cressida's Rock! Now that my Brother-In-Law has one I will be keeping a close eye on the capabilities of yours.
Hmmmm, got me to thinking tho, I wonder if I should call in the Toymods Engine Conversion team for the Crown again?
The possibilites are endless and the Mods seemingly never ending - I guess we are all just limited by that evil called MONEY.
