How do we contact you? I have a car you would like that you've never had on your channel, and I don't have much time left on this Earth. I'd rather it be sold cheap (not given away, but much cheaper than you'll find one) to you guys than it be sold to some random I don't know who won't respect it. It's Australian, has two doors, an LS, manual, 80k on the clock, rare paint colour, plus a few other things. I know the people I will leave it to will just trade it in, I may as well sell it to you guys and just give them the cash, I know you'll do the right thing with it. I don't have Facebook, Twitter, or any other social media except Linkedin. It's located in Tassie though. And no, I'm not selling it to random KZread commenters, so don't ask.

The best part about this channel is Marty and Moog haven’t changed a bit since they started😂 legends!!
I was in Japan on a business trip about a dozen years ago. My Japanese colleague and I hired a driver to take to some customers. They were supposed to use a Crown like yours and I was excited to ride in it. Then they show up in a Century. The Crowns big brother with a V12. These are typically only used by politicians and mobsters. It was winter and I was wearing a black wool topcoat and a black Fedora. The looks that we got were priceless.

Hey guys, I just wanted to say that I'm really enjoying the honesty about how things are going. How things break. I know for me when I watch your shows and then do my own work, and when shit breaks, it feels shit. But it makes me feel a bit better when the people I look up to break stuff to.
I like the subtle shoutout to small channels like Unicorn Circuit with the Knob Touch fank. Now we might get 50 subs by the end of the month!

@@Agretnope. They aren’t purists but they’re not the type of people wreck a nice clean rx7 with an engine swap. If it was a rusted out piece of scrap metal old generation rx7 that’s blown up and not just broken down, they probably would swap it. But not this car, it’s too nice.
Loving the VIP ness. I never knew I wanted a Toyota Crown until a few weeks ago. Now I need a peasant to chauffeur me around.
VIP-ness and Cheryl's big mystery box...there's a joke there somewhere
I spent 10 years of my life pulling Toyotas apart and reinstalling. As an accessory fitter for Toyota it was amazingly simple.
As someone who has fit a lot of those integrated style boxes over the years. Finding somewhere for the module and harnesses is always the hardest bloody part. They were a common install for Toyota's that didnt have factory navigation for a number of years, and for caravan camera to factory screen integration too.

As an owner of a Silvia S15 and GRS204 Crown Athlete, this makes me very happy to see! Also, love that insight you gave with the piggyback system for the touchscreen. I have a very interesting audio setup in my Crown that you two fellow audio nerds would love and I got in touch with the company in Japan that installed it and they told me that, to keep the function display unit working, they had to install my double-DIN head unit and re-wire the factory radio into the rear of the car! Without the factory radio, you apparently lose all functionality of the screen that does air con, DTV, GPS, G-book, etc.

It's really nice to see you bringing content this way. Working with cars, having fun, awesome music... never tired of MCM, and always waiting for a new episode. Keep it up!!!
Wow.... This video is gonna go viral, A simple thing of just adding in a carplay box into a factory infotainment system. THANK YOU MCM !
This car would look MAD with a lip kit, side skirts, and a wrap

Ever wondered why they are so cheap? It's because they WILL cost 3 or 4 times as much to fix.
Back in college a mate had a VIP lexus GS and he notched out the tubs and suspension mounts to get his car lower, it was also a V8 model with straight pipes,deep dish rims, the lot
whoever designed that dash is a genius
the maj came up mint. was waiting for you guys to do exhaust. the looks great. awesome

Well you could, now that MCM have made videos about these cars the price is gonna go up like crazy.
Wishing the participants of the VIP thing all the luck, can't join the 50 bucks thingy this time. On another note, I used tablecloth and magnets to make DIY courtains for an old accord wagon. They just stick in the rear windows with the magnets, you can move them around and all. Thing actually gives a VIP feel with them.
Love this stuff. Thanks lads
Its amazing how good a little box is.
VID I'm so going use that from now on,.Absolutely love it.
Was it a blown fuse regarding the end of the video? I would hazard a guess that many additional harnesses on the factory radios fuse would surely be testing the limits of it! The first hook up loom with the black wires going into conduit is an old Nav/TV swticher. There will be a button that conduit leads to which would allow you to sit in traffic or just driving in general watching TV channels. I would suggest removing it as I don't imagine you'll be using it often! We see them a lot over here in NZ with imports of these from Japan. Super common and in general if we're working with a clients car, we'll remove them as it leaves less stuff to squeeze behind the head unit!
I can always depend on you two to give my day a lift and a laugh!!!! VIPness!!!
The chemistry between you 2 is so good. ❤
So glad MCM got their hands on a Crown Majesta. I previously owned JZX100 and moved onto a Crown Majesta and my God it is such a gangsta car...
Love your work, fellas.
"VIP-ness" killed me. Luxurious STIs are deadly.
Awesome video guy's thanks for sharing 👍 sending love ❤️ from IRELAND 🇮🇪
your VIP-ness is unmatched 😂
Yup, I'd prefer wheels with a machined lip and a flush fitment. You are right about ride height, I to don't think it's necessary to over lower any car as it will high-center and scrape the underside of the car. Cheers!
Love this car beyond what I would need but great episode.
Love you guys, I would go anywhere with you, because it would always be fun!
YES!! IM ORDERING NOW! :D
A '91 JDM taxi crown is unironically one of my favorite cars of all time and I will own one.

Every time I've seen you use "VIP build" I kept expecting to finally see it made into a VIP build lol it keeps confusing me. JDM VIP is a real thing, slammed lowered, chambered, huge chrome wheels, blacked out window tints, typically black paint. But this has just been "luxury build" til now. Glad to finally see something "VIP" actually happening now lol

What are peoples opinions of the Crown Majesta like in Japan? I understand you guys have some emissions stuff that makes owning a V8 very expensive over there? Is it considered an uncool old mans car like the Toyota Corolla over here? I remember reading that someone here got a Toyota Crown Athlete and their Japanese girlfriends mum laughed at it saying it's such a common car over there?

As far as factory wheels go, those are pretty good. That being said, the new ones with the drop look amazing!

I have to say I strongly believe you are seriously mistaken. The Bosozoku style cars are the closest equivalent to the Californian low-raider style cars.
This car is really good value for money. This build is very cool 👍🏻
If guys want an extra Low, you guys need to buy the SS kit aka roll centre adjusters. Should get it close to the ground on factory suspension
Ayyyeeee a new mcm hell ya
Man, hanging with Marty and Moog would be an absolute dream. I wish I wasn't in Canada now :')
MAAAAANNN!!! I wish that Interface kit was available 9yrs ago. The EMV in my Mark 2 was soo unusable that I could only use the radio and the AC controls. The DVD unit and the Tv Ariel and all the other functions was just sitting there.
Nailed the first 3mins! Some good play on words(;
Reminds me of the time I sat in an Audi A6 at the Chrysler dealership and started putting the seat back and it just kept going until it hit the rear seat. I'm 6'10/2.08m and there was over a foot between my foot with my legs stretched fully out and the pedals. I swear the reason the seat can go back so far is so some executive can get head from a street hooker without getting out of his seat... there was definitely enough room for someone to be in the floor in front of me, let alone someone shorter than me.
Blues Brothers vibe is strong with these two! ;)
you guys had me at VIPness

I can't stop laughing 😂 BRILLIANT!
