Delica Left hand drive

Post by jbturgeon »

Hello, i am brand new to this forum but might be around for a while. I am planning on buying a delica lhd (in quebec, a new law has banned rhd from highway and 70 km/h and over zones, very bad for imports!) and wanted to know, as they look to be more in taiwan then japan, if they are as great as the others rhd L300.

My second question concern the company that import the car, terra2imports, are they trustable?

My third question is about the parts: is there a lot of equivalence like Pajero vs Delica or other brand or most parts are specifics for the Delica and must be bought by the net (glow plugs, fuel filter, bearings, injectors nozzles,...)?

Fourth and last question, is the fuel pump a Bosch VE or what model and is it mechanical indirect injection or electronic direct injection?

Thank you very much for your answers and if anyone got a LHD L300 for sale, i'll buy it for sure!

I'll leave some advise for a LHD Delica out of Taiwan based on first hand experience:

They are on average not as clean as a Japanese model no. Not to say they are terrible but show their age a bit more yes, no question about that. Still compared to local vehicles of the same age, no comparison.

The one positive I have noticed so far with the Taiwanese models is that they don't sit as long as some of the Japanese and don't require the typical sat for so long and need new seals, new tires due to cracking, etc.

Hope the information helps some.

I haven't seen one in person so I can't comment on the state they come over but I would buy from William and stay away from Terra2imports.

If you search terra2 on this site, you will find out why.
