| This is what Ghost-Dancer had to say when it was for sale; Year: 1994 Make: Toyota Model: JZX90 Cresta Tourer V Mileage: 130,000KM Motor: 1JZGTE Color: Black Spec: Drift Spec 5 Speed Twin Turbo OVERVIEW The first 1JZ powered vehicle we've had in stock this JZX90 Cresta is setup for drift and performs the task quite well. There's nothing like driving a car you can comfortably take 4 people to the track in! ENGINE 1JZGTE Tomei 1.2mm Metal Head Gasket Blitz Induction Kit Blitz Blow Off Valve HKS Front Pipe Hot Road Exhaust R33 GTR Front Mount Intercooler Custom Intercooler Piping HKS Iridium Plugs Denso 550cc Injectors R33 GT Fuel Pump Greddy Aluminum Radiator Pipe ELECTRONICS/MANAGEMENT A'PEXi F Manage A'PEXi AVC-D Boost Controller Ultra Turbo Timer Defi Boost Meter Defi Water Temp Meter Defi Control Unit MISSION Exedy Super Single Racing Clutch DIFFERENTIAL Kaaz 2 Way LSD SUSPENSION Cusco Coilovers Cusco Front Tower Bar Cusco Rear Tower Bar INTERIOR/SAFETY Nardi Steering Wheel Razo Shift Knob Recaro Semi Bucket Racing Seats EXTERIOR DAMD Front Bumper DAMD Side Skirts DAMD Rear Bumper Spoiler DAMD Vented FRP Bonnet CONDITION This is in great mechanical condition. It has received a new Kaaz LSD, Tomei head gasket, as well as all new turbo assembly gaskets (manifold, turbochargers, front pipe, etc..). The engine starts, idles, and boost very well. Compression and leak down are ideal. The aero is in good shape save for a chip above the passenger side headlight in the bonnet. Originally white it has been re-sprayed black and the job leaves alot to be desired. We originally planned to re-spray this car prior to listing it but we decided to let the buyer choose the new color. DRIVING IMPRESSION This is a very quick car. The IJZ pulls hard all the way through 4th gear. The Kaaz LSD performs brillantly as it's very easy to engage drifts. The clutch engages quickly but is managable in stop and go traffic. The Cusco coilovers ride very smooth and aren't at all jarring. FOB PRICE: ｣3,000 UK LANDED ESTIMATE: ｣4,200 CHOOSE A COLOR! A complete high-quality re-spray is being included with the purchase of this Cresta. Simply let us know what color you want and it will be sprayed to suit prior to shipping. This offer does not include pearl or candy colors but does include metallics. |

| The hardest decision ive ever had to make was on what colour to have  I must have changed my mind around 7 or 8 times before i finally settled on Red/Maroon with orange/gold fleck  Rick was kind enough to keep me updated with some progress pics        Still needs the rear lip fitting    Last edited by NIcad7 : 22-06-2007 at 14:53. |

| Hopefully when its sunny i will get some pics sent of the car outside because ive been told it looks bloody amazing! I had about ｣300 of my budget left which i sent with the money for the car to square away some decent wheels. I decided on these, they are Hanbai M2 DT-05R 18x9 et.20 up front and 18x10 et.30 at back, the arches will be flared to match   Last edited by NIcad7 : 22-06-2007 at 15:11. |

| And of course i have this sat at home just to add to the pimpness   My plans for the car are to drift it for now, then work on the chassis abit more and more power by the means of a GT3037S or something similar. Also want to get a decent bucket seat and cage. I cant bloody wait, i want to say a BIG thank you to Rick at ghost dancer and all his guys who are working hard on the car He's put up with all my emails and decision changes (which happened almost daily!) and always kept me updated, i highly recommend GD to anyone  As i get more pics i will keep this page updated, then it will just be the long haul from Japan to Southampton docks....
