NO.

The cressida has the pick-up in the wrong place.
If you're SERIOUS about doing this (why wouldn't you go 7M-GTE for all this trouble?), get a Supra 7M-GE, since the pick-up in the rear.

190 - 200hp with a really heavy inline-6 block isn't the best option.
Sure, the engine makes some pretty good torque, but the BHG problem is a royal pain in the ***!

Yes, I own a 1990 MX83 myself.
