Were both the Y30, and Y31 Cedric, and Gloria available as a wagon?

What engines were available in the Y30 Cedric, and Gloria?

I know both the naturally aspirated 2 and 3.0 liter versions of the VG, the same twin turbocharged 3.0 liter VG as found as the Z32 Z-car, the diesel version of the L, the LD28, and the diesel version of the RB, the RD were available in the Y31 Cedric, and Gloria.

Can't remember seeing any of these in wagon form. There is a Crown wagon of the same vintage which looks a little like a Y30. The VG30 turbo motor in the Y31 has a single turbo producing 190kw, while the Z32 engine is twin turbo producing 206kw.

They did come as a wagon, but Europe and Japland only, to my knowledge.

The Euro/OZ versions all came out with the first incarnation of VG30E. In Japland they were available with both the VG20ET, VG30E, VG30ET, RD28 diesel. They were not available with the VG30DET or VG30DETT. The Y31 was available with these later VG30DET variants.

OZ spec were all automatics, were as the Euro wagon, AKA The Estate, came as a 5 speed stick shift. Japland models seem to be less structured, with the manuals seeming to be an option on most models. The Estate also came as a 8 seater column shifter.

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
