my new-secondhand van

**alwayz_yummy** · August 12th, 2005 09:18 PM

hi, wala lang share ko lang..i've just sold my delica..i've replaced it with a toyota lite ace fxv 4wd.

nothing surprises me(even you) with this van at first glance:a 2c-t engine, skylite roof, 4wd, light gold brown color, power curtains, cold/hot box with ice maker, TEMS...

but what shocked me is this: it has a computer box, a diagnostic port, and sensors in all vital engine parts!

never thought a 2c-t engine will have any of these...i'll post pics next time...

eh? i always thought the lite ace series were carbureted

**revoGSX** · August 12th, 2005 10:14 PM

mukhang subic liteace yan hehe.. yung sliding door nasa driver side?
baka po 2C-TE yan dahil meron computer box..

paano po engage ng 4wd?

**alwayz_yummy** · August 13th, 2005 08:50 AM

yes, it is. electric 4wd,e.. push a switch, then manually lock the hubs..nagulat ako (pati mekaniko ko) kasi kala namin tinirik kami kahapon(ayaw magstart kahapon, at di namin napastart for 3 hours!), pero un pala, may specific point lang siya magsstart..gulat ako kasi, i only thought all diesels(before the common-rails and direct injections) dont have computer boxes, pero eto, 2c lang, mayroong ganun..at diagnostics ports pa!

but compared to my delica, this one give a better ride and confort(maybe because of the TEMS), pero i have more things na to worry:engine, auto tranny(electronic controlled din ito,e..), TEMS, and the computerbox!

now that its absolutely mine(transferred in my name, i can start cleaning the mess left by its previous owner starting with its fluids...

bro -- congrats. naku for a car owner, it can also be satisfying cleaning and fixing up a car and then personalizing it

okay naman talaga yang mga JDM models. sana mag bago ang batas ng japan at mag left hand drive na sila

if that happens, i will surely buy my cars from japan, hehehehe
