Part Out: 1996 Royal Exceed Ontario

Changed my mind again. Decided to part out my Royal.

Body is in good shape, as is drivetrain, save for the head (I actually have a brand new head up for sale as well).

I'll get pictures up shortly, but shoot me a PM if you need anything desparately.

Re: All the different types of Delicas and options

I believe it was Abraham Lincoln who said "Don't believe everything you read on the internet". L300's come in 1 wheelbase. Engines are 2.5 diesel or 2.4 gas. Roof height (high/low) and sunroof configuration (0, 1, 2, Crystal light) vary. All crystal lights are high roof L400's come in 2 wh...

Toyota 5vz Swap

Having paid for 2 injector pumps, a head, and the towing and downtime related to a failed injector in the last 4 years, I'm starting to consider how to get out from under my 4M40. While I'd love to drop in the 6G74 I have in my parts pajero, it's just not going to fit. As it turns out, the reason th...

Feeler: Part out or whole van

I just took the head off my van, and it looks like it needs a new one. 1996 Royal Exceed that I've had for 4 years. Currently 210,000 kms on it I just put a lift kit and new shocks under it, put a rebuilt IP in it last summer, it comes with a spare IP (working, IP wasn't the problem), I have new bra...

Re: l400 front brake pads

I use 1996 when I order. Looks like '92 to 2000 should cross reference. Mitsubishi doesn't like changing brake pads. Same part number crosses into: DODGE STEALTH (1991 - 1996) EAGLE TALON (1993 - 1998) MITSUBISHI 3000GT (1991 - 1999) MITSUBISHI DIAMANTE (1992 - 2004) MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE (1993 - 2000)...

Re: New Owner of 91 L300 with ???

GLOW PLUGS. Glow Plugs. glowplugs. Make sure your glow plug system is working tip top. That should take care of the rough/smokey start. Do it before it gets much below 5c or you'll really be in trouble. I've had pretty good luck either finding parts on ebay, or cross referencing with monteros/mightl...

Re: Winter tires

I've done it both ways over a few different vehicles. I wouldn't buy the firestone 's. I ran a set for a few winters, and they were noisy, squirmy, and not that great in the snow. The Deli a did 3 years (winter and summer) on a set of General Grabber AT2's, and I was never wanting for traction. High...

Re: rear pop-out window "plug" needed

The plugs cross reference to an 80's Colt. I bought some not long ago. Let me see if I can find the receipt.

Re: Future Starwagon Owner

Hey,

I meant to ask on your original post: Based on your user name, are you a reformed rotor head as well?

Maybe we'll finally have an ontario meet once you're on the road.

Re: Wire near glow plugs not attached, 4M40

That's off your oil pressure sensor, which is on the front of your motor, right where your hand is. If you ground it with the car running, your oil light will come on.

If the van feels at all fast, it's likely making more than 9 psi of boost. Your gauge is likely off by a few psi

Re: WRX intercooler swap?

The intercooler is definitely a limiting factor, so an upgrade would be well worth it.

What boost are you running? You should try spacing your wastegate out before you do anything. Very noticeable power gains for minimal time and effort.

Re: Hoping for a simple dual battery set up

The rv shop may have been rude, but they weren't wrong. My 12v cooler will drain the battery even when the trailer is plugged in and charging it. If you are serious about remote camping, you should look into propane fridges and heaters. If you are mostly looking at camping at serviced sites, you'll ...

Re: Tires

I am at the end of a set of General Grabber AT2's. I would highly recommend them.

They've been quiet, comfortable, and outstanding in the snow. Good offroad too.

They're an aggressive looking tire with good road manners. Plus, I got a solid 90,000 kms from the set

Re: Runaway engine and looking for advice

Answering your easier questions first: You can definitely drive into the US. I do it 3-4 times a year. Worst case, they pull you into secondary inspection, make sure you are not trying to sell it, laugh at you, then put you back on the road. On to the motor: Did you diagnose the cause of the runaway...
