Toyota LiteAce Owners & Discussions Thread [Merged]

[Sleek224]

i have a 1991 Lite Ace na hindi power steering.

may problema na daw po yung rack & pinion assembly. ano po mas maganda, repair kit ng rack & pinion or buong assembly? mas mahal kasi yung assembly na OEM aabot ng 30K.

[zed2d]

Bro hndi ba non-powersteerng ang iyong rack and pinion? what seems to be the problem? If you're having a hard time steering as in the steering wheel feels heavy maybe you need to adjust the steering pinion adjuster loose it up a bit. but non-powersteering rack&pinions are hard to destroy not like powered ones where you would have problems with the oil seals. Any ways if you have a good mechanic and knows how to modify maybe you would want to change your steering to a powered one. mostly these conversions starts at 15k up to 20k(surplus parts)all in, but thats here in cebu i don't know in your place.

these converted vehicles from abroad are killing our automobile industry. the more this things come in, the lesser is the chance that other car manufacturers will invest in our country. bottomline is, these manufacturers will eventually get out of the country and those that will remain will have a monopoly of the car industry.

here's a scenario if this thing continues...

about 5 years from now, you have saved ur hard earned money to buy a new car but the thing is, you only have two choices... color black or white.

[odell]

better settle for local units na lang ser..

[EC248M]

I suggest you to get the latest local model.

pag nakakita ka ng converted vans mapapansin mo na alanganin posisyon ng pedals because of the steering column na pinilit isalpak sa rhd na sasakyan.

[glntVR]

mas ok ata kung bili ka na lang ng 2nd hand na local unit.

[epic]

pero i am just wondering here in manila, everyday i always saw at least one a day, parang aandami ng mga dumating na units, others are Townace of course,

Maybe the price is quite reasonable...anu ba ang price range niyan ngayon...salamt.

pagnakakakita ako ng converted na van, parang sinusundan ko si kamatayan, joke! buy orig LHD instead, IMO

[JAYarc]

local.. since chop from other brand/model w/out reengineering yung conversion, unless orig LHD yung conversion

Bumili kami 230k lng 2 years ago. Ok naman walang problema. Yung makina is still ok. (Kami lang nagkaproblema kasi Clutch driver si mama... heheheh...)

Hi tsikoteers:

Guys, i need your help, ASAP. Im planning to buy a toyota liteace. any pros and cons about the vehicle. Thanks in advance.

[vinj]

Pros: Parts come cheap and is quite reliable.

Cons: Underpowered (as it has a 1.5L carb engine) if you plan to load up (even for city driving), and i find the A/C somewhat weak.
