That’s a Cressida with a 1GZ-FE V12 and ITBs. Wow.

Seeing as how this is a limousine engine I wonder how they tuned the engine to make it more “appropriate” for this application.

ITBs, exhaust work, and some ECU trickery, IIRC. Only 373 wheel, but it’s probably a very smooth 373 wheel.

Would it be worth putting that in an 80s XJS?

It’s not a cheap engine, but I’d say it’s worth it. V12 smoothness and grunt, Toyota reliability, and one beautiful body. The way it should have been.

Awesome. Is it the V12 from the Century?

Yes it is. All I can say is wow. And the ITBs fit under the hood!

Mmf. The stockness of the thing is just right. And the old luxury mix of dopeness with light weight and RWD. Mmmmf

Got a friend who just finished assembling his ‘84 Carolla. Not so different to this, but smaller in every way including cylinder count.
