Honestly the Classics channel has been killing it recently!
The algorithm approves
Good to see the cool guy with his Delica again.
😊ok
TFL classics Connor Delica 😊😊😊😊😊😊
We’ve had Delicas in Canada for a very long time since we only have a 15 year import rule. I bought my first Delica in 2008 (1993 L300).
There are TONS of suppliers and importers here in British Columbia. If you need parts just search for places in BC. Combined with the US/Canadian exchange rate, your parts will be way cheaper and easier to get.
Yup, I concur. I’m in rural BC, and I see Delicas every day. My neighbour and my cousin in Alberta have them.
Something about shipping from Canada even to a northern state like MI is making it crazy expensive right now
Except in Québec where RHD vehicles have to be 25 years old or older. When that regulation was enacted, it pretty much killed the JDM market.
Same in Russia so many parts now😊😊😊
The little Delica kicks ass! The owners a pretty cool dude to.
I'm the owner of the RCR Delica and I have to say that it really is capable off-road. Been on the trails around me a few times and always get surprised look from the utvs and Jeeps.
As to parts, Napa has had a lot of hoses and belts, you just have to reference the part numbers. got new front calipers from auto zone, just search for 89 Montero.
I have to agree with the looks, mostly good BTW. Just yesterday, I was at Lowes, got into the Van and there was some guy 30 feet away taking a selfie with my Delica. Something like that happens once a week.
@@LordsXO I've had mine for just under a year, and so far three people have followed me home. It was kinda weird but I guess people are really curious.
@@recklesslyarrogant7242 Jealous much? Enjoy your miserable life.
Jeeps are surprised by anything other than a jeep lol should’ve seen the looks I got in a stock 97 4Runner in the Florida swamps
TFL need to hire that guy (Larry) ASAP. His personality, combined with his “Tommy-banter” really make the episode fun and interesting to watch.
In 100% agreement for sure, or at the very least, have him come on fairly often as a guest.
Only halfway through the video and already love it. The owner seems very enthusiastic about his Van, that makes it fun to watch.
I love both of these vans. They hold a very special place in my heart. The Kei Vans are pretty common "everybody's-go-to-vehicle" back home in the philippines, they all are
Known by one name even tho they are made by different companies. They're called "Multicabs". We had about 3-4 in the family, made by diahatsu, suzuki and mitsubishi Lol.
That delica is an amazing van. I used to work as a nurse in one of the Coal mine company in Cebu and its in the most mountainous part of cebu, and i drove a modified version of this and made it into an offroad ambulance. It worked really well for us and were able to reach areas with patients that no ordinary ambulance would have dared. What i drove was an automatic transmission one with all the oldschool 4x4 stuff. I loved the suspension on these, yeap it maybe playful but i loved it but not so much for the rear passenger 😂. I loved the commanding seat height.
I would love to have both of these guys be recurring guests. They've really put some extra punch into the TFL classic channel. More van content please!
90's Japan was the pinnacle of awesome cars !
We had a star wagon when I was a kid. I have fun memories of driving to the beach with the huge sunroof open. The car stereo was built into the center console, and the driver could flip it up so the stereo can be controlled from the back seat.
love getting to see such unique vehicles, especially vans being put to the test. I think I'm getting the k-car itch thanks to this series. cant get content like this anywhere else. Thanks TFL Classics as always for the amazing video.
Larry seems like a legend!! Love all his jdm whips!
I guarantee if you have the Delica in my Country, the Sparepart never becomes an issue. The engine is like a peanut in here, so you can literally find the parts for it everywhere, because the engine itself it's still in production, it planted in the second gen(if im not wrong) Delica Pickup (Mitsubishi L300) which is still produce until now, and The newer version of the 4D56 still can be found on Mitsubishi Pajero Sport and Mitsubishi Triton (2008-2015). Welcome to Indonesia
Ok😊
The Delica 4D56 engine is like a rock. Here in the Philippines, a utility truck in the 80s is still running right now. So sad, it was discontinued 6 years ago due to being euro 2 standard. Kei trucks are also very popular here.
Ive had 2 Delica vans, they are Sick capable.... scared my mates a lot!!!!!
The owners seem really lovely, especially Larry!
Larry seems really cool. His competitive bicycling days seem way behind him though. 😳
i think he can still rock the spandex bike shorts!
Poor wife .I hope he gets healthy again. For better or worse
Those are 2 cool vans…and I Never thought I’d ever say a van was cool 😎
To the guy with the Delica, give the front torsion bar adjuster 5 turns on each side for more flex offroad and better on road handling. They are set up very soft from factory
For how intense the STI vs Evo people are
The sambre vs delica are quite calm and rational
Great show. It reminds me of a visit at a Siberian oil field back in the 90’s. We were transported to production site on a Delica.
Love Larry’s shirt big Tool fan
How did I miss this a year ago? Well anyway I’ve been bitten by Kei Truck bug and want one so bad! 1 to keep miles off my 2017 F150 and 2 just to return to simple motoring. what 2 awesome individuals that have shared their vehicles with us and as always a Great Show Tommy!!!
I like the glass roof treatment on the Suzuki Dias II van!
Fun fact is that the Delica with the aut has an Aisin Warner box, so your jeep should have the same trans in.
Another one is that you can get them with the V6 motor in them, and the later ones had the 4M40 2,8 TD motors.
I love this video.
I really liked the second van. And the guy. He was awesome. A dude you could have a beer with at a campsite.
Dat Subaru tho. 4WD, retractable top, supercharged rear-mounted engine? It all sounds so cool.
Paint that thing blue and green, put Scooby-Doo and Shaggy in the back and call it the Mystery Machine.
Epic series, thank you Tommy 🙂. More vids like this please.
Good Stuff. You should do an overland trip with this Delica and Andre's once it runs.
These things are rad. I’ve always been envious of these when I’ve been in Japan. Lots of cool 4x4s there.
The off road bob and sway that people do in a great off road vehicle, is an essential part of the experience!
You’re not really off roading until the seatbelt needs to come off.
@@embeaston Well said! ...Unless of course, you're REALLY OFF ROADING, and a 4 point harness is required. 😆
That is an awesome little van. Looks like a mini tank. Its so cool. Love the KO2's on it. I saw a similar van here in LA. Dare I say its the coolest little van I've ever seen.
Thank you, Tommy. I love the KEI cars/trucks/vans, and wish we could see more of them in the U.S. I think Larry should have his own TFL JDM channel.
Kei Cars the cutest Car ever.
In Malaysia we got Subaru E10, which came with 1000cc without turbo or supercharger.
Design looks different.
Rear engine is owesome.
On my way to a cars and coffee this weekend, I pulled up at a light next to a RHD subaru van like this. I immediately thought of the videos of these that you all posted recently
These old vehicles have an unmistakable charm.
Japanese vans are cool and they can run for +25 year old rigs. Terrible to see the Russian van break. Great content! 👍
Very cool vans!! I used to have a ‘69 Dodge A100 window van and a ‘77 Ford Econoline.
Just discovered your channel and it’s great.
Delica is sick fell in love in NZ myself one day maybe..
In Venezuela, I see this every day as well as the Mitsubishi L300, I would love to buy a Delica, its my dream car besides a Celica.
Cool to see a Delica! I have som experience with L 200 4x4 LWB TD manual. It's a very capable offroader.
These r very rare car in the USA but most Americans are good mechanics. You guys will be all right I hope you’ll be comfortable in that small van
We need a followup video!
Great video. You know, that K van with a lift, tires, and a locker would be really cool.. ..and cheap. ..but for actual Overlanding, the Delica is perfect.
These Subaru Microvans where kind of popular in Switzerland back in the late 80ies early 90ies because they where very capable in snow. But they've rusted away...
La Suisse, l'autre pays des Subaru 😉
Love this unique set of cars. Keep em coming!!
Wow, these are cool. Such awesome tech in these vans for the 90s!
So I was vanning it in Buena Vista towards the the end of August. I swear I saw this Mitsubishi drivin down the road. Very cool!
Good to see the steering wheel on the correct side. 😜
I've done similar trails in a Libero (EU spec Sambar with a 1.2 engine). Some tire spin on rocky 100% slopes, but did it, no issues.
The Mitsubishi Delica is a big hit in Australia and New Zealand..plenty still around
In Russia also
Larry is so great. Real nice to see him in another video :)
I like that the Subaru is like a spaceship:)
What a great video! Those vans are so awesome.
Oh yeah 😎. Being from Colorado, when 4 wheeling off road we always brought jacks and at least one Shovel 🙄. Maybe here either a Pick and a shovel or maybe a Maddox and a shovel.
Van offroaders tend to be the most fun… it’s not about who has the best, it’s just about being in the lifestyle!
I ended up with a Jeep WK for more capabilities but I will get myself a 4x4 van one day!
I want a monster minivan 4x4! 2 person off-road camping.
Really enjoyed this video, thanks!
That was an enjoyable video. Glad to see some unique vehicles I'm not familiar with. Thanks TFL.
Yeah that was pretty cool, they're not vehicles you see every day. Plus the 1st guy had a good story to go with why he purchased it.
if i were the owner of the Dellica I would put an intercooler on that turbo ASAP. He would probally gain like 40 horsepower just cuz of air density when the charge is cooled! Every turbo car ive ever owned ran like a bat out of hell on cool rainy humid days! They can put out an extra 30hp just from ambient temps!
Sure I told same !!!
Delica needs intercooler asap😊 new L400 got intercooler 2.8L 125hp
4M40
Pajero turbo diesel 4D56 intercooler has more power and torque 100hp delica only 84hp😊😊😊😊
Cool cars and cool owners! I'd like to see more videos like this.
This is awesome I just saw the other delica video, nice you brought them back on
I adore Kei vans, would there were an easier way to get one than having it shipped from Japan. Also pretty incredible how durable these inexpensive cars are, such that 25-30 years later, they start a second life on another continent as off-roading toys. If only we made them like they used to.
Javan in Portland
Fantastic designs - all you need!
sweet, i've been waiting for this video
Great little cars, would love to have one of those.
That shirt describes the Mitsubishi van driver perfectly, A TOOL, always go fram, especially for older vehicles Fram or K@N is the way 2 go
Oh man, these cars are just awesome!
i own a little subaru sambar mini truck (profile picture) and i gotta tell yall, its my greatest purchase EVER. i love this little thing.
Good stuff! This channel is way more interesting than "This is the new Blandamatic 5000." channel. Old stuff is just cooler.
In europe the subaru had a 1200cc 3 cylinder engine. And it was called Liberio
Larry's back!!!
"For a tiny amount of money," now a (tiny amount of money X 1.4) thanks to videos like this.
Really nice video, I would've loved to see the little Subaru crawling a little bit more!
I have a feeling if a lighter driver had taken the wheel they could have had a chance at driving up that hill.
I saw those guys allover 285 this weekend 👍
I knew the delica would walk it no problem 😉. Pajero/Shogun/Montero underneath
スバル・サンバー懐かしい
免許取り立ての頃に最初に買った車だ
RRだから踏ん張りが効くし小回りも効くしスーパーチャージャーだから加速も高速性能も良かった
また販売してくれないかな
love the tool shirt!!!
These are awesome
Honestly this is better than today's cars
Before i watch im going Subaru, my family has owned a Subaru dealership for over 70yrs, i had a Subaru justy and it couldn't be stopped in reasonable conditions not big mud holes, it was a 3 cylinder beast. on the back window i had a sticker made that said MY REAL RIDE IS YOUR GIRLFRIEND
So if you want to off road with the kei van just get a bumper that gives better clearance
Little Subie just needs a set of 15 inch wild peaks
This is definitely cool vehicle for camping.
Oh my gosh how fun!! The Subaru needs some mud n snows and a lift kit 😅 Having multiple Monteros, I love the Delica, it even has the same aluminum wheels as my Monteros 👍
You should try to import those vehicles from the Philippines. Here we do left hand drive conversions straight from the dealer.
Road in a delica through the caucus mountains in 2015 and I have wanted one since
I’ve always wanted someone to do a review on these thank you!
On the mitsu KEEP the stock timing belt tensioner when you change the timing belt, the aftermarket tensioners are terrible for the 4D56's. I had a 92 pajero, it was great until I replaced the timing belt and tensioner, then it kept skipping a tooth every month unit it eventually killed the head
I really liked this video 👍
Love these vans, we need more videos on them for sure!
I have a Mazda MPV 4x4. Not in the best shape on the exterior but the mechanics are solid. Its awesome and sits up so high that it rivals some modern full sized trucks.
Mazda has great suv also Proceed Marvie with robust turbo diesel WLT 2.5L 125hp!!!
Delica has only 84hp pajero same turbo diesel 100hp intercooler helps 😊
@@jdmcarandmotorcycle Its funny because Mazda used the Mitsubishi G6 in a few things but went on their own with the diesel. The first gen MPV has Mazda's only iron block v-6 ever made. But its mated to a Nissan transmission from the Pathfinder with the transfercase dropped on the opposite side.
We never got the Marvie, only the B- series truck it was based upon. Its a shame, but the US car makers forced higher import taxes on Japanese light trucks because the US manufactures couldn't compete. This put the cost higher than some full-sized domestic trucks. It killed the Japanese made small truck market. It was.very intentional.
Both vans are nice
Imported a '94 Sambar van. Fulltime 4wd, supercharged, 6spd (5+super low). Was a very sturdily engineered machine and looked very cool but, ya, that little 660cc engine was revving like mad at 90km/h. I'd be in 4th before I cleared an intersection. Kind a fun to drive as felt like I was racing everywhere yet wasn't speeding. Had to sell it tho due to the too low gearing.
That guy seems like such a nice man
I like quigley vans. These are cutest.
Soooo awesome!!!
I'm a Canadian and we only have a 15 year import ban. I love my 2005 l400 Delica. My only regret is not buying on 5 years ago. I went gas because of parts, and the diesels are not really suited to NA highways, where mine spends 90% of it's time.
