Delica Canada | Mitsubishi Van Club

I ended up getting ahold of one of TieMyShoes Grinded cams, so I thought I would post my thoughts on it after driving with it a while.

It feels like my van doesn't bog down as much going up hills or trying to accelerate at highway speeds. Usually I feel a large dropoff in power once it goes past...

I'm hoping to continue the plywood panel theme in my van. I've already created a panel for the rear door that I managed to simply screw into the existing plastic clip things that held the old panel, but it's not ideal ...

The previous owner created the rear side panels (over the...

Hi everyone,

I've had my Delica L300 for 8 years and the external bars were getting rustier and rustier. It's been on my wish list to get them cleaned up. Last December I decided to splurge and have a Lower Mainland Delica specialist shop (to be fair, I won't specify the name) de-rust/paint them...

Hello everyone, I'm hoping to accomplish a modification to a 2.5l injection pump that will allow for easier cold weather starting. The idea is to have a cable leading to the cab to activate the diesel equivalent of the gas engine choke.

Adding a mechanism to the injector pump that advances the...

Just though I would share some pics and info on my side exit exhaust my friend welded for me this past weekend.

Parts:

4" Magnaflow round muffler Part number 10416 from amazon.ca: $100
Two 45 degree 2.5" stainless mandrel bends from Columbia River
One straight stainless pipe 2.5"...

Hello folks,
Just thought I'd share with you a fantastic little mid I did to my L300 today. It's bit really even a mod because it was too easy.

Anyway, I was looking at a VW Eurovan with a fiamma bike rack attached to the rear hatch and thought, I bet this would almost bolt right on to the rear...

Thought i would post some pictures for fun of my L400 rear jump seat conversion being put to good use when hauling my dirt bike. I was lucky enough to be able to snag the chamonix psychedellic carpet and custom fabbed L400 chamonix jump seats from dr_airtime. The seats really change everything in...

I'm getting a front skid made, using the drawing from this page...

Thinking we'll do a run of 8 of them, if anyone is interested let me know, and what kind of transmission, AT or Manual. also if anyone has input on what material, alu vs steel, and what thickness you'd want, hopefully we can use...

The rear springs on my Delica have sagged (as they all do) to the point where they were sitting on the overload leaves, which makes the ride quite harsh.

I've tried adding a leaf ( ) which made the ride smooth again when loaded, but it also raised the rear too far when the van was empty....

Hi. I have been involved in accident, again..... So I'm sick of being pushed around. I'm looking for bush bar/grill guard for 99 Chamonix. Older gen. comes with it. I have called any single shop/ dealer ship but nobody stock them any more.
Did anybody of you found something what easy to modified...

Lately I've noticed that the caravan has been sitting a little nose-up when towing, when I'm sure I built the Delica's tow bar to tow it absolutely level. I think my rear springs have sagged a little.

Add-a-leaf kits are easy for more common 4WDs, but not for the L300. I ended up...

I posted it on my US delica forum but it's open for all to view. No registration required. This way I don't have to double post.

I opened a LCL shipping account to get more of these racks if anyone is interested. Just PM me.

So I finally made the jump and got my windows tinted. I have young kids so the curtains probably wouldn't last long so I decided to get the windows tinted. After a few calls and with the main question being what's a Delica lol! I found a place that said sure. I was there for 3 hours but she looks...

I've wanted to put a receiver on my delica for a while. For towing a trailer or bike racks etc.. Finally got around to ordering a kit from Steven @ Rising Sun Imports, and to be honest, it was one of the easiest installs I've done. I spent hours on the phone here in Edmonton trying to get a shop to...

Hello everyone,

I just wanted to share with the forum that this current radio wiring harness works perfectly for changing out the Delica stereo. Plug and play, soldered the new aftermarket harness to this one matching up all the colours and plugged it

Metra 70-7001 Radio Wiring Harness for...

I'm looking to use a liquid-liquid heat exchanger in-line with the cars coolant line to be able to heat water for showers, etc. Plan is to pump water through the HE. There seems to be two types; plate based as well as tube-in-shell HE. Although plate based seems more efficient and is cheaper, the...

My 95 L400 Diesel came without a manual throttle adjust. When I preheat my engine with my espar heater and then start it, the engine idles too low, causing a lot of vibrations during warmup. I decided to build my own. I let the pictures speak for themselves. Let me know if you figured out a better...

Alright,

My 1991 L300 is on the truck and headed to my house. In all the time it's taken me to get it here I've had plenty of time to think about how I'm going to deal with the 90's era electronics package that will come with it. This is a placeholder post for the implacable work which will occur...
