10 SECOND SLEEPER [Toyota Cresta]

- The MCM boys head to Japan to pick up an old Cresta in attempt to go faster than they've ever gone before with a 10 second quarter mile. But going at supercar speeds is a huge job when the car they've chosen was never designed to go that fast...
Thank you to Transformers: The Last Knight and Paramount Pictures for the opportunity to create this film.

Not gonna lie, the stock Cresta looks sick
It's a Cressida fuck man
It looks nice And If it was lowered
@@azteckjumbie9344 no that car is a Cresta
So beautiful
ravi ramlochan it literally says “cresta” on the car lmao
This is not only the most well produced car show on youtube, it's also better than anything on cable. Well done.
literally just told my brother this mcm is awesome
its like a free to view netflix series lol
MCM is my favorite car show too but bruh the most well produced car show on youtube is MotorTrend but they do have a huge budget some great film crews & editors too.
I second that statement. This is a great production, keep them coming guys.
for the budget they have, its absolutely incredible its like the ford focus RS, alot of bang for their buck...
"it all started with a $200 Cresta and a buncha mates"
and a mountain of more dollars.
$2000 you mean....
key word "started"
@@White_Night_Demon 200 would be nice, i was suddenly wanting that bargain
I had one $350 from a 70yr old woman I was the 2nd owner lol ... I was 17 at the time didn’t know what I had sold it $1500 few weeks after I had it got a 300zx
This was also 16yrs ago they cool cars just don’t see the big Hype over them
Big slow car..... I understand the History I6 rwd
But they ain’t no $3-$5000 car I see every one selling them for
I'm watching this video six years after its release and I can't really tell the age of the video. Your content ages really well!
Im an American, those Aussie 4.0 I6 Turbo motors have always fascinated me. I am super glad it was not just another LS or 1J/2J swap.
Hate Transformers, love this show.
Jason Tyo I like the first and second transformers movies only
This was the most interesting part. Australian show, want to see Strayan engine.
or a 1UZ turbo - Barra turbos are the shiz
I was hoping it would of been an Rb in there
Kalyptic rb? no thanks, grandpa
We need an extended cut of this
Cresta: *Exist*
Onizuka: I'm about to end this Car's whole career
Poor vice principal 😂😂
MY CRESTA
😂😂
Hey! MCM. After binging all of these 30+ minute docs, I just want to thank you for doing them with charm and class. I love the multiple part videos you are currently doing as you put a lot of meat and veg into them to make it worth it, but these complete build videos are so satisfying to watch! I have always loved cars but never have I considered a project like this. But seeing how much fun you can have with it is really inspiring and when the time comes that I can afford something like this, I am going to ask my friends to help out and just enjoy the process instead of focusing on a perfect final product. Cheers from Canada boys and I can't wait to see what you do next!
I've watched you since i started playing horn in 6th grade, didn't know you were into cars
also in canada feeling inspired! maybe i can be one of the pals man.
The 80's/90's/VHS type intro kept me watching. Great video all-round. Great works boys, never change.
It's from a movie called "Kung Fury". You should see it!
I just watched the same guys who painted a car in a driveway put $75,000 worth of parts into a 30 year old Toyota and run a 9.6. Strange world.
Cesotoseot you calculated the price?! damn thats bonkers!
This is called progress... These guys earned it!
Easily $50k+ of new parts. However we don't know how much they got all the parts, materials, and block for. Definitely a Transformers sponsorship plus maybe a ton of free parts. No to mention all that tasty labor.
Honestly, for touching the 9"s, if you only spent $50k then you did really well. That is mind blowing amounts of torque.
Is Barra swap the next LS swap? I've got an E30 with an engine that's about to go... Wheels are spinning.
I've seen Barra's get into 10s with around 10k of mods they are really cheap to get good power
Not to mention If you saw the yellow hair Japanese Teacher who look like Yakuza Named Onizuka
Please Drive as fast as possible and as far as possible from him
😁😁😂😂
I literally here because
1.Onizuka
2.CARS
Big Snood U.K. be the
Big Snood U.K. be the
Oreno crestaaa
Sensational! Turning people into petrolheads all around the world. ✌
These guys just cant make a car without Subaru parts.
I like that
technically they used Italian made SPAL fans.. which were fitted to a radiator from a subaru - there not actually 'Subaru' (which use Denso anyway)
Subaru is just amazing
@@Fantastika until you own one 😂
All this in one video. AMAAAAZING. Other channels milk their project so much but not MCM.
For real, I was waiting for the "next episode, we actually run the dyno! the one after that is a teaser of it on the strip!"
I'm guessing it's because the Transformers guys paid them to make one video. Same thing we've seen in the past with Miss Daisy, sponsored by Subway. If it was a normal series it would have been more episodes, and there would have been more problems and less mountains of parts given to them free.
It's an awesome video but I would still love to see more of the build, I don't care how many episodes it takes.
I would like to see an extended cut as well - something for both crowds. More minutes of revenue for them as well - hopefully!
tell that to the Mira, mini and 2sexy.
I had an 86 Cressida, LOVED That Car!
I have watched this so many times I have lost count... it still gives me feels on that 3..2..1.. with a 9 second pass. I can not wait for the day you guys can all get together and do another special again like this. Thanks for all the hard work
Worlds collide as we install fans from a Subaru onto a Nissan radiator to cool a Ford engine inside our Toyota. These guys are the best.
And mated to a typically GM Turbo 400 Trans. A true Frankenstein!!!
If you guys don't name this car "Choptimus Prime" then you really are missing a trick
This !!
But it would detract from it. Transformers are way lamer than this car.
hahahahah yes.
Silent Bob although there isn't much correlation between the car and the film, naming it Choptimus Prime stayed within the theme of naming all the cars they build, whilst linking with the film. That was my thought process
Initially downvoted, Transformers is just that lame thanks to michael bay. But then the car is just sooo cool, and they made the video about the 80's transformers. So take that thumb up and transformers money, you're the best, MCM.
I love how older cars were just made so simple. The interior and the exterior of the vehicle.
I just rewatch this special every few months, still awesome!
The Barra is an engineering achievement we Aussies should be proud of.
Amen to that!
2nd that
Breaking news: 2JZ prices falling, Barra prices rising.
wish we had the Barra engine in the US
Oh yea, same here in Germany, I also wish they were a thing here.
But I guess even if we had 'em, high fuel prices and strict modding laws would kill the fun :(
funny you have strict tuning laws but have the autobahn
George Cramer thats why our factory cars have up to 1500hp ;)
Bro not even gonna lie, straight after i watched this video i went onto trademe looking for this motor and surprisingly they are cheap in NZ ... Hell Yesss!! haha
No matter how many times I watch this it never gets old
This video still a legend for me! Well edited, nice job with that Cresta!
Running 9's is impressive. Doing it in a sedan with only 4 liters of displacement is even more impressive. Great job, I hope you release an extended cut!
Lawrence Lentini and to think that an 80s Japanese sedan can go toe to toe with the Challenger Demon on the drag strip is incredible!
it's not a Challenger it's a SRT Demon. It does not say Challenger anywhere on it and officially is not even made by Dodge, it's made by SRT. :D
And they arent even using a massive turbo haha 600hp at the wheels is still quite tame for that motor.. imagine they doubled it.. wow.. just wow..
9s isn't even as fast as a Barra could push that little car.
They've gone for the safest build they could without going all out and building themselves something like PSI JNKI
remember they also did it in just a couple days so the fact that it didn't break is amazing.. not too mention that they never back purge their stainless which makes it super weak
This is the happiest any car build has ever made me feel. I reckon she's still got more in there. I want to see out takes of this! What suspension went in, what problems you faced, corner balancing, troubleshooting, all the technical tomfoolery that goes into a build like this. You make it look so easy, people don't realize the amount of research and parts hunting it takes to find just the right parts, tools, lines, fittings, bushings, gaskets, bolts, belts, and the million other parts to the puzzle. And how one small thing can mean months of delay to get it all to work together. Absolutely loving this.
Shaikh 8801 I don't know that you'd want it any faster, haha
oh it has more in it, with all those performance parts in there, all they need to do some ecm tweaking and the like and they may even get it into the low 9's, this car can compete with a lot of semi-pro drag racers i feel, that poor camaro ss didnt have a chance in hell lol, i could have told them that camaro wasnt that fast
agreed it has more. im no expert but looks to me like it could be launched alot harder
Javier De La Mora definitely a Hollywood budget build
I’ve watched this beginning to end at least 5 times. Love the music too!
Buying my first Barra tomorrow morning. Had to come back and watch this
Can I just say, I am so glad you guys did a Barra. This to me is a proper send off for possibly the best motor to ever come out of Australia. You guys seriously don't stop to impress me with all of the different cultures you tap into, and it's such a relief you're not doing another JZ swap like so many other channels on youtube.
Many props to you Marty & Moog, keep killing it.
and the LS swaps too, can't forget them and how many are done weekly!
"It all started with a $2000 cresta and some mates"
and it ended in a $2000 cresta and some mates, and probably around $15-20k in parts 😂😂😂
TheGiant Gaming probably more than that!
You'd be surprised how cheap you can get that engine to do that . The ford Barra is known as easy and cheap power maybe closer to like 8-15k max
geromeskeez it was a wild guess though hahaha, i just supposed all those custom parts would be rather expensive, such as the tranny and adapter, custom driveshaft etc... ☺
it would be more expensive but they made allot of it themselves if you were going to do this in your own it woulf cost some where near that amount
geromeskeez I guess you haven't priced a full house 9" and T400, that's like $6k at least just there. Over $2500 on intake and exhaust manifolds, $2k for complete turbo, etc adds up quick.
OMG, I've been watching you guys for over a year now, htf did I miss this? Absolute belter. Thrills, spills n bellyaches. Love it, fantastic show 👀🤧😁
This video is absolutely amazing!! Thank you for your hard work!
644 people down voted because title was misleading - its not a 10 second sleeper, it runs 9's.
Fantastic video.
"Its big, it's built like a fridge and it's got a pretty serious rear end" I thought you were about to introduce mechanical stig
matt or my ex
How is Cheryl?
Surely you meant Kim kardashian
@@dannyhudson5115 We do not speak of such a disgusting creature. Seriously look up the pics of her arse that are not photo shopped.
As a black guy that sounds like my ideal chick
That was awesome. Brought back a lot of great memories. Always loved the sleepers. Well done boys 👍😎
Only subbed 2 weeks ago. Going back 10 years to catch up binge watching. Absolutely love these guys. They are humble, smart, talented and dynamic together. Hands down, the best automotive CZcams channel. Thanks guys for such incredible knowledge and entertainment.
just gotta say, they might have the best show on the internet.
-might
they did a 9.9 still sayd 10 in the title i love theese guys! aint no clickbait shit
Rukia Kuchiki [1337] Rukia i love you.
Matikus Prime love you to m8 :)
Rukia Kuchiki [1337] aahh thanks :D
So true!
A real show of character, even tough it's "just" the fact that they don't "clickbait".
These things are rare, if not almost impossible to see these days.
The only way to show them that we appreciate it is just buy a fucking sticker at least.
You have to be under 9 seconds to be considered a 9 second car
One of the most impressive Mighty Car mods episode ! Great job on overachieving your goals !
Great team work and planning and best of all, that 9.9 execution.
This. This should be the official standard formula for making the perfect car mod video. Flawless Victory.
i never get sick of the intercooler harp joke
Joshua Hardie it's no joke. That's raw talent your seeing 😅
I even thought, this time moog is shredding some sick riff on it. I admit, I'm a bit disappointed.
KDM TRAP No, my paperwork say I'm more insane than retarded. Thanks for the concern though 🖒
I always come back and watch this vid every so often
I've watched this channel since 2014 or so. This video is the one I remember most. The build, the passion, the result.. all too perfect. The soundtrack is literally a chef's kiss.
The harp intercooler joke gets me every single time. Oh and also, this was an awesome project guys, I'd definitely watch an extended cut.
Ian Vázquez I was just thinking this would make another awesome 1 hour Japanese special
The harp intercooler joke????? What do they not sound like a harp when you play them???
Likewise haha, the perfect syncing with the fingers is great.
Got some shoddy intercoolers there mate if they don't sound like a harp.
Mechanical Stig removing the bumpers gets me every time too :)
want longer version. director's cut redux extended. love the look as well.
Heck yeah I would even pay for a longer version... say throw in enough footage to make it an hour long and I would buy it. :)
Hell yeah!
Right because people said the same about Roadkill
Great show. I watch it like I need you guys to win every time...... Keep winning!! Keep having fun!!
It puts it down so smoothly too! Well done!
I have watched this soo many times, by far my favourite CZcamsrs, I started watching you guys back in 2013 from hospital, I was diagnosed with Hodgkins lymphoma, I was 11 at the time and spent a lot of time waiting in waiting rooms and hospital beds, I spent most of my time watching your videos and playing the original forza horizon, now 6 years later I just finished my Pre-apprenticeship in light vehicle automotive repair, I travelled 4 hours on the train each way but watching your videos made it feel like a 5 minute train ride. I get my license in 2 weeks and I can't wait to start with cheap, easy mods like you guys did back in the days, from the blue terd and the trd lazer to a 9 second Cresta, its weird, in some ways I feel like a proud dad watching you grow but also like your younger brother who helped me find my passion for cars, either way, I really hope to meet you guys one day.
Dude good on you, keep it up , good luck with everything👍
Kynan Piercy that’s awesome Kynan glad you are well and have an amazing future :) I love this show
This comment needs more likes!
Awesome story buddy, always love to hear how passion is born! Keep wrenching for greatness mate!
how About it MCM this kid is the next Gen maybe you should look him up !!
Can we just appreciate for a second that Moog makes the background music for these videos. Neon Lights is an absolutely amazing track and I am totally in love with it :)
FilthyBeats love the retro stuff
his music is so cringe
Explain.
Completely agree! And they still do a lot of editing and filmingl themselves as well... One camera man does love panning shots though :O
no wonder his name is moog :P
I don't know how you guys do it, but every video is full of emotion and it just keeps me coming back. Mighty Car Mods is so much more than a car channel, whether or not that was the intent, you guys, the music, the narration, the cars, the editing, it all feels so pure, and its just something special. I hope one day I can do something this exciting/fulfilling with my life. Love the channel keep up the great work! Thanks guys, cheers!
Love the cresta and Benny!! MECHANICAL STIG!!! I was so happy to see this thing destroy drag week again this past year! Can’t wait to see it in 2020! Such a good video and build
Am I the only one who gets super happy on the inside when moog plays the intercoolers like a beautiful harp? Hopefully we'll get an awesome guitar solo on the next one
James Clark those intercooler harp solos are to die for
absolutely love it!
This is probably one of the most pure, real JDM projects I've ever seen. No excessively expensive GTRs or Supras, but old school Japanese cars that are only converted for fun/race and without glittering paint or useless spoilers.
You are not only the fastest but also the most pure. By the way here in the Netherlands it's 1 a clock, but that's not important now.
Ilias Lamari but with a ford engine 😹
Ilias Lamari 1:58 maar dat maakt inderdaad niet uit.😂👍
Ilias Lamari Ford engine and rear end, Chevy transmission, other than the body, what is JDM? It's all Aussie/American.
Yeah but with an Australian Ford Falcon "Barra" 4.0 Liter engine.
Ilias Lamari i like thete theamd projects they started to do every year and it is 7:25 pm in the us C.T
I've watched this video like 20 times now and I am still not sick of it, this video is truly good, probably the best sleeper builds, mainly because it is in one video and there is like a story behind it, thanks guys
Very VERY Impressive, was rooting for you guys the whole way.
Big ups to the production and sound team too 😁👍
The devil on my shoulder is going to be telling me to buy an old Japanese car for the next few days again now, while my wallet sits in the corner with a gun to its head.
YUP..... thank god all the rx7`s are atleast 3-4 hours away... or i think id cave
SLEEPER BEETLE VS SLEEPER CRESTA!!
harry bullocks beetle got sold minus running gear unfortunately:(
rip
That was an epic tale from start to end! Thoroughly enjoyed that!
made me cry, so beautiful, gooooood job.
Damn the editing of the intro is pure gold!!!
After looking the whole video I have to correct myself, the editing of the complete videos is fucking amazing.
Especially the Kung Fury style title sequence.
Pure retro.
I loved it
F F yeap, these guys make national geographic a run for its money
F F the whole thing is gold
Thought to myself "F**k, another 2JZ build!!"......pulled out a Barra......lost my mind!!! F**k yeah!! I absolutely love projects that are just different!
XtremeGTI same here. I was already going to say this is getting repetitive when the dropped the B(arra)omb.
Absolutely agree with you on that... main reason I love watching MCM... they seem to always do things differently. Just look at Super Gramps...
XtremeGTI mate I thought the same thing I was hopping they would use a barra then bamm a barra popped out
Probably my favorite vid I remember watching it when it was uploaded many years ago!
I had one of the GX81 models
Loved it so much
About time you boys dropped one of these legendary engines into a project car!!!!
Aussie, Aussie, Aussie!!!!!!!
Cameron Russell So pumped! #BarraTheWorld
That MUSIC!!ON.FREAKING.POINT
Brilliant blend of 80's and current electronic. Ferris Bueler and Frou Frou collide. Bravo
I don't normally sit through car videos this long on CZcams but this channel is an exception! What a fantastic car and the documentary of it from the sourcing in Japan to the engine work to the music is just perfection! I've liked and subscribed! Good work mates!
The music are all nostalgic ones... Love it and yes, that car and the video too. Hats down
Secondhand fans from a Subaru! They still managed to put Subaru parts in it! 😂😂😂
MAD
Click bait... Came for a 10 second car not 9
he he
Yeah, you know these guys aren't attuned to the drag scene. No one really into drag racing is going to post that they have a 10 sec. car if they posted a 9.979!
0.021 seconds is an eternity. You can shave that off with a couple of stickers... !! (joke)
MISTERComaToes yea really. Most guys would walk around saying they had a low to mid 9 car about to break 8s lol
Lol 😂 😂😂😂
What I love about this channel is that they use ORIGINAL songs that I've never heard of!
Verry pleasant to listen to when driving! LOVE IT!!
Moog just want to say I love your music man definitely makes your videos so much more enjoyable having your own soundtrack!
Get that sleeper to Hot Rod Drag Week. Running high 9s in a Toyota will shock all those Fox Body 'Stang jocks.
Plenty of imports (japanese and british) run drag week, they're just all slow or don't make it. allot of the daily drivers back off at 10.5 so they dont get thrown out, most of the real competitors run
it will gel with them cause its a "Ford" engine.
Mike Gould with a six cylinder engine no less. Forget Chevy engine in a Ford bullshit.
with the ladder bar set up and chopped up floors they will likely end up in a HRDW class that they would not be competitive in at high 9s. If they could drop to low 9s high 8s they would be more competitive. Alot of those slower camaros and mustangs you see running drag week are running in barely modifies classes that require stock suspension, stock flores , stock fire wall position . There is a lot more to HRDW than meets the eye. However it truly doesn't matter what your time is within your class you can win by just making it through the week. It would be cool to see MCM there.
In the same way its a "toyota frame"
Moog on fuckin point with the music in this one
Squidgy Quijabo that sync up with the talk of the transmission exploding and the "boom"
Dude love the sound tracks to these vids . Even crazyer that they make the songs as well respect
32months later and I'm still coming back to watch this video I don't know what it is but the Barra is just my all time favourite engine and building a car like this is a dream. I bloody love these guys.
I love the retro wave intro!
Korpus Kollosum kinda trdlzr vibe eh?
That was the best!
I ALMOST WET MY SELF WHEN MARTY ROLLED OUT THE BARRA!!
I feel proud and I wasn't part of the team that build it but to see the effort and the pay off truly warms my heart i love cars and I love working on them thats all I live for
Probably the best channel on youtube
Had to come back and rewatch this
Ai Moog, the retro music was kick ass, man. The VHS intro was really cool too. Radical.
Mouthbreather loved that 80's vibes as well. reminded me of kavinsky and Com Truise
i wish i can like this hundred times. music is pure magic for this episode
If this was any other chanel this would be like 10 vids. Gotta love mcm
Talidas it would have been if they weren't sponsored by the new transformer movie ;)
Talidas what is your profile pic? U play black ops 2?
gucci mane I don't see what it has to do with anything, but its a deadpool symbol
and im sure theres alot of us that that would have preferred this to be more that one vid too
Talidas I wish it was 10 vids long...
This is from 3 years ago buh thanks guys ma day jc brightened up...
Wow! That thing is super smooth all the way down the track. No wondering, no skips. Especially considering it’s technically a 9 second car.
13:55 Classic Benny shot of walking past the bumper bar and lifting it off!
EveryDayCar
as soon as I saw it was loose I was waiting for that! like how he did it in the s2k vid
Aw the little Mira sitting in the corner! ^_^
I play a lot of mmorpgs and that face always creeps me out when people do it LOL.
on another note, cant wait to see more of that little pocket rocket of a mira ^^
I've always liked the face, I think it's cute. :P
You guys Rock the car world with your shows.. Awesome build story from start to end..
Wow! That was the best video I've seen in a while, I couldn't take my eyes off of it if I tried. So makes me want to take up a project of my own like this with some buddies. Much love, keep it up!!
6:00 lol, love the 'don't sue me', public domain, home-brand-ACDC version of Back in Black in the background.
soon-to-be abandoned username Brian Johnson is big into cars. he's been on Top Gear with one of his cars. he'd probably appreciate the show.
Bryan Miata Yeah, he's got a cool old blown Bentley racecar from the twenties, and a couple of later model Ferraris, I believe.
Brian Johnson can be a bit of an arsehole tho. There was a big dollar tribute car built by some random bloke to show the boys of ACDC after a show last year. organised a viewing and everything, they didn't bother. bit of a dog move.
Zero Cool That's kinda sad to hear. i always thought acdc seemed pretty down-to-earth and humble
i felt the same, love the band; but felt really disapointed in them after hearing about it
I shed a tear when I saw 9.9
xXWOND3RBR3ADXx I was doing dishes and started jumping up and down in the kitchen with wet gloves on. Dont even care! love these guys!
Same here. Threw both arms in the air and yelled, then came the tear.
xXWOND3RBR3ADXx I teared up at the end
I've watched this 3 times
Still awesome.
Can't wait for new material
Well done
A very well produced and entertaining journey for all enthusiasts of all ages !!!
What a car!!! Next MCM Roadkill showdown- Cresta Vs the Draguar. Battle of the 4 doors
battle of the boost...this needs to happen!!!
One problem, shipping a car across the ocean just for an episode of a web show goes against the amount of money they would get out of it.
Hot rod drag week!
To be fair, the amount it costs to make a normal episode of something like roadkill FAR outpaces what they earn from making it. Shit's expensive as hell.
So, build a local version once they get stateside, using a Cressida...
And now its in the 8s and does wheel stands with almost 1100 hp. Got to love a sleeper.
I reckon it'll eventually go 7.90.
Beefalo Bart, any videos of it running in the 8s? Ive not seen it since this video 1st posted. Revisiting for someone interested in a Barra swap. Wish we had more over here in the U.S
Will Spicer Search "Benny's 8 Second Cresta." Mechanical Stig owns it now.
Will Spicer more? Are you aware of even one here? There’s just no ancillary support here for the barra and parts and shipping would be huge. Shame really because I love the uniqueness and would run one myself if I thought it wouldn’t knock me out financially lol
got 1224hp at 2020 Nats ,,, thing is off its face lol
I've been looking everywhere for information on getting some form of manual shifting like a sequential gearbox for my car and seeing your setup seems like a great idea. Awesome build lads!
Not going to lie, that sub 10 sec got me teary. Brilliant video - I’m a fan of the ongoing subtext, a bunch of mates, messing around with cars having fun.
Turbo Yoda is just the ultimate mechanic. Massive respect to him and his team :)
I'd LOVE to see a 2 hour directors cut sorta thing, where we see everything in more detail. Usually this would be done in 10 episodes but all in one? Amazing but we want MOREEEE
This is the type of feel good I need this week. 🙌
