I was going to bring one over, but decided to try to find a US spec platform that is close to the Y33.* Any suggestions?

I want it to look something like this when done....

not much close. You could do a Q45 and then convert the headlights/tail lights etc

300C maybe?

Yeah, I wonder how hard a Gloria front end sway would be on a Y33 Q45. Have you thought about trying to do a Crown Majesta front on a LS400?! :D

i think with $$$ and fabrication i think a Y33 with cedric heads and tails would look crazy. I mean not to many people know of these cars maybe hardcore jdm guys but yo you would trick the hell outta people when they spend 10 min doing guessing games.
I say go for it if you are looking for a project i would persue it if i had a extra donor car to work on. ;)

you might be happy getting an old mitsu diamante, they arent exactly alike but you could achieve a similar look

Im talking about the 92-96 models like this one..

2nd to last gen Q45 is the answer. like a 99? the body lines are the closest and they share the chassis anyway. You guys should know this.
