    Remember some series one MX83's have the correct crossmember. The Crossmember change was Feb90(check your ID plate) to coincide with the release of the JZX81 in Japan(02/90+) where as Series 2 MX83 started Aug/Sep 90. Hope this helps. I have a 03/90 MX83 with the later crossmember and both my Aus spec EPC and Jap spec EPC list the difference.

    Edit: Fixed, checked my EPC's, I was one month out.
