New To Sevs: Crown Sedan And Wagon

[Iron Chef]

Another win!

The JZS171/UZS173 Crown and Crown Majesta are now eligible in both sedan and wagon versions. Eligible motors are 1JZ-GTE and 1UZ-FE. This one actually took a fair bit of work to get through, but we got there in the end!

Remember it's still early days, but it does mean we can start work on getting plates for them, around 12 months away.

Watch out Stag owners....

Mmmmm SC 1UZ

What sort of dollars are we looking at?

[PRIMO]

HMMM ive been waiting for these JZS171w Crown wagons ....... for all those who want to know they dont come in V8 form for the wagon 3 variants are 2.5NA 2.5 turbo same as chaser and 3.0NA

the turbo Variant you want is called the Athelete V all these are turbo.

Only the majesta Sedan come with V8 2wd and 4wd version

Good work Kristian for this....... and what was the problems you encountered to get them added ?

Sorry mate, got confused about which comes with which engine... one more time for the dummies??

[Iron Chef]

1UZ-FE V8 - sedan only

1JZ-GTE - sedan and wagon

Phil, the Crown/Crown Majesta/Crown Athlete thing confused them a bit, as did the fact that I didn't bother listing a few engine variants because the chassis numbers didn't match up, hence they're referred to as S17 series in the application...

[Messiah]

Oh it can be done still

[Messiah]

So what money can we expect to part with once they coming over? same as the aristo?

[Iron Chef]

Nope you'll be looking at $20K at least I suspect - they were a 5.5 million yen car when they were released...

Phil probably knows better than I do, but if you want black, expect to pay shitloads more.

Unless under way already unfortunately this will more then likely end up on the SEVS list and go no further, Kristian does the work for people to get them on the SEVS list then no one buys cars as no workshop wants to commit to a new unknown model no matter how good they are.

Some business have screwed some workshops so much they are closing down or will not spend any money on test cars for quite a while. If people paid a fair price for compliance there would be money in the bank for test cars not just enough money to get by (not all workshops).

Dunno much about them (yet), which build years are eligible?

hmm... love the thought of an AWD twin turbo V8.... if only Toyota could figure out how to make a nice interior

there are a few of those kicking around here in brissy.

Is the hearse spec one a longer tail or can you actually fit a coffin in the boot of a standard Crown?

If you can, that's an awesome selling point. Substitute coffin with 2by4 or surfboard depending on the client I suppose.

Just To Clarify... Are they all awd?
