Re: Glow Shifts 3 in 1 Gauge

Sounds like you might have a couple of other issues Patty. If I'm not mistaken I've heard you mention your vans low power compared to some others. Low boost could be caused by two things turbo or wastegate. If the wastegate is misadjusted it may be dumping excess boost to early. Or the turbo may not...

Re: Pub-lica - a Delica sibling?

82 tercel tail end w 72 tr 6 front end bolted on to it. Kind of like my cross bread dog (lab corgi) must get a lot of funny looks. We
should do a piece on the weirdest cars we are seeing out there. Kind of like the super size it one from last year.

Re: Glow Shifts 3 in 1 Gauge

Is it giving you oil temp or oil pressure? If its is oil pressure I would opt for that.

Re: Time to change Timing Belt

Timing belt + tensioner
Balancer belt + tensioner

Re: Nissan BE1

This is a preemptive question. I have never imported before so was unsure if any vehicles were more troublesome to get past inspection than any other. Thanks for the feedack.

Importing a Nissan BE1

Does anyone know of any reason why the Nissan BE1 would have any problems passing Canadian importation standards (other than the normal run of the mill tires, lights, etc...)? Reason being I'm thinking of bringing one over to surprise my daughter with for her upcoming birthday. For those that are wo...

Re: importing a >25 year Delica to USA

There is a member in Florida (RHpanda I think) who is driving his deli which he was able to import due to differences in state laws. If you had a friend with a Fla. address maybe you could get around the problem. Once a vehicle is legal in one state it might be easier to move within the country than...

Re: L300 engine swap

This is a bit of a long shot but If you know anyone coming up from Mexico in an RV there are lots of these motors in the junkyards in Mexico. They have been running a re-badged delica from hyundai called a H100. These are sold through Dodge and are all over. They have been around since 2001 and at t...

Re: Tired of the negativity

Love the level of intensity in the athletes. Hate the intensity of commercialism in the rest of it. The cost is borne by all of us not just the homeless, they are just in the unenviable position on the bottom of the food chain. Protest has a place if done right. Violent disruptive protest is suited ...

Re: Meet & greet at Georgie's Cafe - 13 February 2010, 13h

Very nice once again to put faces to all the internet handles we operate under. Although I did leave with a bad case of intercooler envy after looking at all that"late model" JDM hardware on display. It seems like more and more are being seduced by the lure of 2.8 L aerodynamic L400 newnes...

Re: Oil Analysis in Vancouver?

Go to Finning (or any other cat dealer). They have the best system. You get a little bottle with a needle on it that you insert into a small fitting they can sell you. This prevents any other contaminants entering your sample. It takes a few (3-4) samples to set a baseline trend for your engine. And...
