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.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
