มุมมอง 3113 หลายเดือนก่อน
I Imported a 2007 Honda Odyssey from Japan. It's a pretty sweet K24 powered AWD 7 seater wagon but the rear brakes were making some noise so I ordered all the parts to convert the rear to 2005-2006 Honda CRV parts. Thanks to cdnrbodysseys.blogspot.com/ for the info. All new parts were sourced as OEM quality replacement parts from Rockauto.com (not a sponsor) for a 2005-2006 Honda CRV.

Hopefully this car will be fixed or their gonna have leave it like it is
It's on a panther platform ford and was sold to museum as far as I know
Considering how popular these have become in the UK there are no UK based TH-camrs doing any decent videos for them. I currently drive a Volvo V70 but im seriously considering a JDM MPV next, Nissan Elgrand E52 is high on my list.
I allow have an rb2 odyssey. Considering a vellfire when we decide to move on fro. Th Estima. So far it's been a good van for us.
Don’t worry, Cooter will have it ready to go by Monday
how is the fuel consuption for the RB2 in highway and city run?
Just got a 2011 C350 & your review was timely.
😭😭😭😭 the beautiful car
Thè air ride is pretty dumb
Awesome but u gottta get rid of the chrome on the steering wheel and go black and white - and get rid of the red carpets. cmon real Stormtroopers don't wear red. and paint the corvette brakes white. Then you're perfect. great car.
Bland.. MEH
What fuel did you use in this car?
I used 91 Octane
@ Did you have any issue with 91? Did you retune the engine?
@abrarxnasir no issue. 91 octane in North America is the exact same fuel the Lexus 2gr v6s run on. The octane ratings are different depending on where you live.
It'll buff out
Now I see why none of these Cobalt SS run anymore . I just bought one with 246k miles to daily, I’m praying he didn’t drive it like this
A gorgeous Camaro!!
Should have used Turbo Boost, maybe it would have been a better landing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
People do stupid things and this one of those
My dream car
🔥🔥🔥
Very nice
That’s not rare
It's the only one in this entire region of Canada. Only a few dozen have ever been imported, most to the west cost. It was difficult to register it as it wasn't in their system
@@gearheadsyndrome ohh in aus its super common
@Muhammad_dawud yeah, it's the same as the tarago there right? Anything RHD is hard to insure here if its a daily driver.
@@gearheadsyndrome not rlly tarago is rlly base model like u on australian tarago u dont even get a fraction of features u get on a estima so we have many importers in au bringing the estima from japan
Makes sense. I know the hybrid was Japan only
Mate that thing looks 🔥
Back before all cars became so mad
Where is this?? 🔥🔥🔥
Steele Wheels motor museum, halifax
@gearheadsyndrome thank you you glorious petrolhead
Finally Peace of Mind!! I had so many Questions & this helped Me so much!!
Glad you liked it. I'm currently getting another vehicle thru Brian right now to feature on the channel. Hopefully picking it up in Halifax sometime in January
How has your Estima been working out? I'm considering importing one as well, here in Nova Scotia. Difficult to get parts? Any weird maintenance or repair issues?
The hybrid is a bit more difficult given the added components, but the 8l/100kms is nice. Also the two 100v 1500w outlets are nice for camping. I already made a 2 part series on how to rebuild the batteries with new cells for a reasonable price. I have had to get creative on some parts sourcing as it isn't a platform available in North America. Still I've confirmed several rav4 front suspension and brake rotors fit, the rear brakes are available on Amazon. Anything that isn't there is always megazip or amayama which is usually pretty decent on prices. Maybe 10-20% more than napa would be even with shipping (new and used parts are cheap in japan). My wife loves it and wants to keep it until it dies. Currently at 168,000 kms and it's been relatively trouble free apart from that battery, which, given its age, was expected. The 2gr (3.5 v6) awd one is a sweet option to get. The only issue is the alternator is tricky to replace given its location. Other than that, perfect minivan.
New Brunnie!!!!
As a proud owner of 2008 C350 purchased new back than. These are great cars but with some caveats over the 16 years of ownership. First MB in there designed obsolescence starts with the intake manifold. It’s using plastic thats right plastic arms to control air flow will break due to heat! Duh it’s sit on top of the engine in the back… So you’ll need to buy aftermarket kit comes with aluminum arm than problem solved. Find a good mechanic the dealers will rob you unless you bought an extended warranty. Than the electric fan will go out only because the soldering job is piss poor and again loses the soldering integrity due to heat! The fan’s control unit is in a sealed plastic containers so getting to it is a hassle. Find aftermarket fan you’ll be good! There’s a known steering lock failure on these W204 chassis and basically once again design obsolescence the steering lock loses its integrity over time and one day you start the car like I did backing it up from the garage. Turn it off to get something in the house and tried to start the car and won’t start again. Lucky I was home not in gas station like many owners discovered! Of course MB knows about these issues but won’t do a recall… These are the worst known issues. My passenger side mirror stop folding so the motor gave up over time so that needed to be replaced. The circular headlight control unit gave up the ghost had to replace it twice! The fuel pump will eventually will need to be replaced when you start smelling gas after fill up, especially if it’s garage. It too is plastic pump the seal starts cracking over time. There 2 fuel pumps underneath the rear seats one on the passenger and the main pump behind the driver. Mine was behind the driver. The AC fan blower will also give up the ghost as well and will need to be replaced. Again my fuel pump and ac blower needed to be replaced within days from each other and my car has 285,000 miles so not bad at all and just happened now 16 years later. If you have the MB Tex vinyl interior the middle seams from the bottom seats will tear overtime. Again time age all things so try to condition the interior once month so the interior is clean and won’t fade or cracked if left on its own. Basic 101 car care. The Engine and transmission is bullet proof! Do the maintenance and car will take care of you.
Thanks for the insighful comment! We still have much to learn and discover about the car. Great job on keeping it running near 300k miles that's really impressive! 👌👍
Wow - you nailed the play by play! There’s recall on the fuel pump so hopefully it was free.
Thank you for your wise insight! Looking forward to purchasing a 2010-2013 ✅️

@@gearheadsyndrome Mine was obtained at 121k at 146k I have not seen a warning light with my due schedules :D Enjoy!
Hoping to land a GTT of my own soon. Just saw a friend recommend this link on Reddit. Do you have any details written down about your journey so far with it? Will be watching the rest of your videos too
Steve lives a few hours away but we'll try to film with him anytime he has his R34 in the area. Every time I see it it's progressing. I'll ask him if he can respond here with some details
@@gearheadsyndromesounds great! Thanks for the quick response!
@AyeSteezy he said to follow and reach on Instagram steven_ryer_r34
What the heck? The hardest part is putting it back together. It's really tough lifting the column back into place and getting the pivot bolt in.
Its awkward and heavy
Never seen a parking brake like that before. Looks cool tho
I also have C350, 08’ one.
I’m in Sussex! Just picked up a 2012 ZL1 six speed manual with 35K KM’s on it. The absolute most fun I’ve ever had not to mention the best sounding car I’ve ever owned. completely bone stock. Cam and headers coming in the spring. Beautiful cars.
Nice car!! I had one just like that and loved it! Very good review!
They are very nice cars indeed! Sad to hear you got rid of it

Wicked that's my z in the back ground...
Im eyeing an 06 RB1. This seems like so much car for the price. Seems like alot of the k24 parts are interchangeable with cadm?
Yup. Canadian rb owners group on fb has a ton of great info
It's super clean. Well done
It's looks exactly like a iroc minus the "iroc z" emblem. Looks really clean imo

Nice vehicle you imported! I like it. What about your Toyotas? As well about adding the oil in to the filter before to start the engine, I would check the videos what is happening with it in this case😢
I sold my Crown but still have the Estima. I also have a Hijet on the way from Japan right now. Not sure what you mean about filling the filter before re-installing it. I tried to half fill mine here but given that it's almost fully horizontal a portion of what I added spilled back out when threading it on
Great video!
Your charisma is gold. Just like your new oil! ;) Great video!
Glad you enjoy it!
