Great review of the Majesta. They’re a great looking car. Imagine if they made them like this today. It’s a really modern car for its age. 0-100km was pretty good considering the size of the car. Good to see a RWD car, I’ve always liked RWD cars the most. I wouldn’t mind owning one of these. Thanks for the review.
Couldn't agree more! Really cool crown and was fun to drive still
Coming in clutch with these special cars lately 👌🏻quite a unique sound coming from that supercharger. Keep em coming
More to come!✅
Really enjoyed watching this, finding these rarer optioned vehicles is pretty interesting.
I love finding the weird and rare
Supercharged majesta ticks every box 👌
It’s so good
That’s fucking perfectly modified. Bloody sombrero’s off to the owner (because tipping my hat isn’t enough) lol
Super clean
I've always liked the Crowns and these V8 Majestas are just awesome. Great mix of luxury and performance 👍
Couldn't agree more!
Yes great cars. I have 1996 3.0 royal saloon, a 2004 4.3 v8 majesta 54,000 km and a 2012 5.0 v12 Century with 74,000 km. All so different but each one is a joy to drive in their own right. I didn’t know Toyota made such great cars - luxury, high tech, performance and reliability. What’s not to love.
As a 180 Majesta owner, that’s one of the cleanest interiors I’ve ever seen in a 180 series. Dash and the “wood grain” is absolutely perfect.
Love you talking Crowns Ross!
Couldn't agree more! Amazing condition
Wow very nice i do love Japanese goodness...it would be very interesting with a few basic mods breathing, cooling, party pully and a safe tune what numbers could be gained....
Would be a weapon!
_wow, never heard about this one, super rare 🤙🏼 .. love these reviews ❤️_
Thanks for watching!
As always, great presentation from you, Ross. Appreciate the clean accent that's comfy to the wider audience around the world.
Much appreciated!
Thank you bro for this rare piece of art !
It really is a special car!
Nice torque out of that engine, a few more pounds of boost and it would be a weapon
A few more pounds and rods would quite likely pop out of the block to greet you for afternoon tea. The 3UZ in these are not as stout as the earlier 1UZ engines. An IS350 4.08 diff with a Cusco/OS giken LSD and some PPE headers would compliment it nicely however.
@@gavinr9107rods are fine actually the issue with this engine is the thin cylinder walls, thats how the 3uz came to be, its just a bored out 1uz
@@jakewatts369 However if I am not mistaken, the 3UZ rods are actually much skinnier than the early 1UZ rods, and the early 1UZ could handle a lot more power with forced induction than the 3UZ? So the issue is both the internals and the thin walls of the block itself?
Agreed
My 1987 Mazda has oscillating air vents that still work! Japanese are the best.
That’s impressive eh
I love how you show us these rare cars Ross 👍✌️
Thanks 🙏 more to come
Well people say they wouldn't have sold in Australia but on my POP for my 06 BF Fairlane it initially sold for 91k. So at a pricepoint in the 60k mark i believe these would have sold, considering it's so much more car for the price.
These sold here with a lexus badge (ls430) for $180k without a supercharger. There's no way people would have paid close to that for a toyota badge.
@@SeriouslySarius ls430 is a different car altogether, same engine but the car is different
Unfortunately the tax in Australia is just out of control!!! If it was around the same price as in Japan then people would have bought them here but sadly they would have most likely been close to double
The superchargers in these are Eaton M90s, if anyone's curious.
The brakes in this example are aftermarket, which is a good idea as the stock steel brakes are pretty rubbish for such a fast car. I have a set of Endless brakes in mine and they significantly improve the experience.
Perfect weekend car
daily*
Perfect all rounder I’d say 🔥
Sounds amazing . What a cool jdm classic
Very cool classic
Man I love this thing & a freaking fridge as well better than cars today lol,another home run thanks brother 👏 & guys wipertech are no joke best I've ever had.
It’s top level this car bring back the good old days
Such sweet engines, the spread of power is amazing, they are quite technical and clever and... super reliable. Toyota made some brilliant cars, I remember the first Lexus being launched in the UK, thought they won't rock Mercedes or BMW.... wrong. Nice review, see if you can find an early one with the V12, you will be looking for tunnels then...
The car is just so well done eh
If I was a Japanese business man in the early 2000's and this was the alternative to a Merc or BMW I would definitely choose the crown in a heartbeat. Seems like the UZ engines were used for plenty of different Toyota models you could have this car running for a very long time as you wouldn't be short of parts
Totally agree the crown is the pick
What a cool car never seen one before full luxury looks awesome o what a feeling Toyota cheers bro Vz Glenn 🏎👌
Glad you enjoyed it very cool example
What a car...so much luxury...for its time....added bonus with the charger...not sure how strong the engine is ...but with some more boost it would definitely liven up this car....great review on a car I knew nothing about...enjoyed the review...always educational...TUFGNF
Definitely could hold more than what it’s got now.. great car
Such a cool car, all it needs is a resonator or something in the exhaust and slightly more boost ofc hehehe
It doesn’t need much eh nearly perfect out the factory
Hi there. Great review. I am lucky to own exact same toms supercharged majesta. I can confirm those brembo brakes are upgrade. I’m looking to upgrade the factory fitted brakes to get better stopping power. If you could share some info about those brembo brakes to make sure I get the correct set up for the car. Thank you.
0-100 4.77s timing when the kilometer speed meter needle starts to move
Do A review on the audi s4 v6 super charge
or the 2.7tt version !
Had a late 80s crown. Handlin wasent great but smooth n so comfy. Cheers
Thanks for sharing!
Japanese toyota vehicle have the most good luxurious packages for their cars
Some of the best
@RossReviewsau the price on the car is decent and it's sucks because do to united states importing car law that car would take along time to be able import into the us
Mate, i really think u should get hold of Spanian and compare his evo to his sti, br great fer both channels! and would make for a great vid haha
I would love to if he’s keen
Machine bro. Just in jamaica for some machine
Big ups
Nice car but big money!
$85,000 AUD in 2006 is worth $133,882.42 AUD today after adjusting for inflation 😅
Big money car 🤑
Still didnt top the 206 Majesta! Mwahahaha
N bro all the electrics just kept workin'
Toyota quality
For sale??
Nope 🤣 owner is very happy to keep it
its well on nice rims...just shocking for stop start use daily
who's tom an why u have his car ?
..jokes i knoww, thats phat. cool car
Wrong info mate . The full spec non supercharged below 80kms
Available under $18k. And supercharged one max $30k
Even the old v6 Camrys are underrated in my opinion / they actually haul ass! Much better than these stupid hybrids!
The Molesta 😂
Legitimately?
It’s legit
but the car actually looks like a grandma's car
Each their own
I own 5 cars and they are all from the mid to late 2000's. Once touch screens and turbos in every model started popping up, I lost interest.
Mid 2000s are my favourite era
