Re: Someone PLEASE satisfy my curiosity
 but I do miss engine braking 8-) You miss it? Why is it gone? Autos engine brake as well as anything else... I engine brake with my auto all the time. I do too. The first stage of engine braking is inhibiting the overdrive. My Mom calls this the jake brake. :-) The second stage of engine braking is...

Re: Which Delica Year.....94 or earlier?
 The L-400 started production in 1994, received a "facelift" in 1996 and is apparently still being made to this date. Not quite correct :-( L400 Series 1 Started 1994 L400 Series 2 Started 1997 (facelift) D5 Started 200? (this is a different shape) :wink: D5 Started 2007 :wink: I guess tha...

Re: How to raise turbo boost
 hello everyone. I finally got around to a project that i've been thinking about for a while. How to adjust the turbo wastegate to 15 psi, (or more ), without the blowoff valve going off ? Mine was dumping at 13 pounds.My wastegate was set to 12. Everything was fine, then with the snorkel putting co...

Re: Someone PLEASE satisfy my curiosity
 BAIT What seems to be even more rare are the ultra-fast, quick-off-the-line, higher-top-speeds-than-the-autos manuals that certain dealers are flogging on this site. Every manual driver I've talked to or read about has been in agreement that their manual transmission van does not go as fast as the ...

Re: Helpful hints on wastegate actuator testing/lubing?
 I can't speak for the original poster, but I can assure you that in my case the problem is not the vacuum system, but the turbo. I have no vacuum related issues, however when accelerating hard I hit a point fairly quickly where I feel my boost vanish as a loud hissing sound appears, backing off the...

Re: Better L400 urban mileage in second ("Hold") gear?
 And Peter, I'm very tempted to call "Photoshop" on your mod there... 8-) Got any more pics? No worries - it is photoshop'd.... There was a guy in oz a few years back building a stretch delica (don't think it was ever finnished tho) but with only one set of rear wheels. I did this to see w...

Re: Which Delica Year.....94 or earlier?
Thanks for that Jesse, you've said what I was trying to say... I think :-) There are many vehicles with the same closed-loop system both domestic (NA) and Euro/JDM. Just like with any of them, the coolant expansion tank should always be checked when doing routing maintenance for brittleness, crackin...

Re: Someone PLEASE satisfy my curiosity
I've been around the Deli scene for about 6 years and haven't heard of or seen a maual diesel but I'm sure someone on the Oz forum has a maual V6 (L400). In oz, we get all the models (Jasper, Chamonix, Exceed, Super Exceed, Royal) so I'm pretty sure it's not a model thing and, considering you can ge...
