General maintenance parts catalogue

Hello, my name is Cameron. I work for an autoparts company in Victoria, called JB Group.

I am in the process of making a parts catalogue for all jdm vehicles now availible in Canada. I already have a comprehensive toyota catalogue, and am now working on mitsubishi (the Nissan guys can wait a little longer). I've already gathered all the information from the wiki parts list. A contribution has been made in it already. I have some part #'s for the L400 and will post them here soon.

I am asking for your guys help, to aid me in making a comprehensive catalogue for the L300 and L400 Delica. Any information I recieve on the Delica, whether L300 or L400 I will share here, so that we may all benefit from this collective inquest. I recieve a lot of calls for the L300 and would really like to help people out better.

Please e-mail me at clas@jbgroup.ca
subject: Att. Cameron

P.s. I am aware that some of you guys live in the Victoria, if you have any spare parts ie, starter or alternator, bring it in to our langford location, I hope to find a interchange for it.

Thanks for your guys help on this.

You must be getting a head start on the L400 because it won't be allowed here in Canada for another year.

Ya, when I started my search, I ended up with a list for the L400, then I found out that it wasn't available in Canada yet. So instead of droping all the info I got, I decided to keep it because, like you said, it will be available in Canada. A simple mistake that will turn out well in the end.

Trust me - you'll need the L400 parts list for when they arrive in Canada because they are much less reliable than the L300's!!

Take a look at the UK site and just see how many problems they suffer from compared to their older/better built/more rugged brother! I had one, nice car....but got shot of it pretty quick due to lack of character and the fear of having to sell my house to cover the maintenance/reliability issues!!! :shock:

If you need a hand compiling any bits for the L300, give me a shout....I might have some part numbers stashed away somewhere?

Well with three neighbor with Mazda MPV vans (which look IMO similar to) a L400 would fit just in with status quo here just right - but with bigger tires (no thanks).

Any Delica information you can find Bruce would be greatly appreciated!
