You gotta search...

And if you are trying to find parts... post in the for sale section.

I looked for a few months and the best price I could find was $800 from MAXX for the conversion parts. Then a local parts car popped up for $450 and I grabbed it up. It appears as though this car will pay for itself in parts, so I'm doing the swap for free. Only problem was convincing my buddy's dad to let me store it in his backyard


It is odd how things work though, 1 week after I got my parts car, another 87t 5spd with bad motor pops up locally for $500...

I got some of my 5spd swap stuff from people here on SF, but the rest I got at junkyards, often times I see cars that have all the hard to acquire stuff like the hard lines, pedals, and the driveshaft.....Alot of MKIIIs seem to have found their final resting spots here in the Dallas area

I got all my 5spd stuff from a 5spd.

got my 5spd parts for my late Cressida from a guy named Mac Chittenden

Hey therm, is it true the cressida wagons had a 5spd option?


Now that would be the ultimate sleeper

hmm, i suppose they did have the option. I cringe when I hear of cressidas being the ultimate sleeper, however.

I still think funkart+turbo busa=ultimate sleeper.
