Sugino 75 bottom bracket?
So I picked up a pair of Sugino 75 cranks for $2 dollars yesterday. I don't have the bottom bracket needed for them. I plan to use them on my fixed gear. They are meant for road use I believe. My bike is french so I need the old fashioned bottom bracket. What sizes fit excluding the expensive sugino 75 bottom bracket.

French threads? Velo Orange threadleas bottom bracket if you can get one with the right length spindle with ISO taper
There is no cheap option.

Also wouldn't a 103 JIS taper work? IS a cartridge bottom bracket really better? I can get just the axle I need for fairly cheap.

If the existing cups are still usable, all you need is a spindle of the appropriate length for your crank.
If they're not usable, then you'll need to consider a cartridge of some sort. As noted, Velo-Orange offers a threadless cartridge, but recently they added a French thread version of the same thing:

And Phil still offers French thread mounting rings for their bottom brackets.

Where would he get a new spindle alone? Most used ones arent worth looking at because theyre worn out
