Re: Hyundai Starex!

Sure that the market for Starex will be smaller than for Delica but if you have nice,clean well equipped and affordable units that should be very profitable...I'd probably be one of the first buyers. I've search many place to find LHD conversion kit for Delica,Starwagon or Spacegear,or a clean Delic...

Re: Hyundai Starex!

I wish there was some importers who can offer these Hyundai Starex with LHD steering. Starex are almost twin of SpaceGear but without the 4M40 engine and the V6.They have diesel and gasoline engine,2.4 gas,2.5 turbo-diesel and in some country with a 2.6 diesel n/a. And they have 4WD but harder to fi...

Re: Fan clutch refill

Sure that if your fan clutch is leaking,it's better to change the seal.But over time,silicone oil is like any other oil,the viscosity change a bit and it accumulates impurities. So it's a good idea to refresh the stuff.For the sound,yes the fan is roaring a bit more up to 80-100km/h,depending how mu...

I don't know why it is n...
