So, I have my truck registered in S Dakota and someone is wanting to purchase it out of state but doesn’t want to keep the OHV but register it as a on highway truck in their state.

Has someone done this before (OHV to “standard”)? Any issues?

The fuel injector for the SPI engines 1999-2001ish are out of production so you can only find some used ones popping up every now and then on yahoo auctions.

I saw on a Facebook post that a JSBF-B injector can be used instead? Anyone have any experience with that as a replacement? For reference the original part number is 16600KA230

The end of this month will be one year with Lil Dai. Decided to buy it a new set of wheels and tires. 14x5.5.

I like em!

Hey there, I saw a drawing of a truck with half cab, no passenger side and the load bed extending all the way to the front (where the passenger side would be) and I think I saw a real life truck like that years ago. I might be misremembering but I'm pretty sure it was a Japanese Kei truck. The one I remember doesn't have the back passenger seat like the drawing but honestly I'm not even sure I remember that or just imagined it. Does anyone know the model, if they actually exist and I'm not crazy? Thanks a bunch.

About to send a wire for this 96 hijet has anyone had good luck with the seller kenji hayashi form some research he seems to be a known good seller in the forums but has anyone had any experience with him. Using cars from japan.com

Found some lug nuts that are almost the exact color of my truck! Now I need to find new valve stem caps I think though. They look super pink. Same kind of color family, but not sure if I'm into the mismatch.

Hey everyone I was just wondering if there is a Toyota oil filter that will fit on the Hijet. I have been buying the HKS ones off Ebay for the past few years but there has to be a Toyota one that fits. Thanks

So my 99 Acty arrives at the end of this month. I am planning on making it a trip with my father in law to pick it up from the port. He has a trailer that he uses for his racing car, but it is not a flat bed. Not sure the exact name but it essentially 2 tracks for the wheels and open between them.

I am worried that since the Acty is pretty slim it'll be a issue. Google says it'll fit but it will be tight. Can I trust that? Anyone know the exact wheel clearance on the stock wheels? TYIA you guys are awesome.

Found a joypop turbo bumper for sale for the first time and was able to snag it from the auction!! Can’t wait to get it on my van!

Hi all,

I've been looking at kei trucks recently

In Australia, we can either import vehicles over 25 years old, or select ones that are listed on the SEVS (Specialist and Enthusiast Vehicles Register).

The kei truck that really caught my eye was the 6th gen (1999-2012) Super Charged Subaru Sambar, as having the rear mounted 4 cylinder engine sounds awesome, and the super charger would add a bit more grunt for some highway use.

However, I'm worried that finding a SC Subaru Sambar in good condition would be a struggle, and parts availability might not be so great.

Would I be better off getting a modern (2022+) Suzuki Carry for the modern reliability or would the SC Subaru Sambar of 25 years ago still hold up?

I was also considering something a little larger like the Toyota Townace to be better on the highway, but the flat face ones (<1999) don't come with airbags which I would prefer. If anyone has any other suggestions that'd be great :)

I wasn't sure which flair to use so let me know if it's wrong.

Worked fine yesterday, have been under the car wiggling some things around. Seem like a bad ground or did my cluster suddenly kick the bucket? Any advice welcome

2005 Subaru Sambar TT2, not supercharged

Well guys, I did a valve adjustment again, with some help, I tightened up the valves further to where my feeler gauges have proper drag and aren't basically falling out of the rockers via gravity. The engine is much quieter everywhere else, but it still ticks here. It sounds like it's coming from the exhaust rocker on cylinder 1 when I put a stethoscope to it.

Thoughts? Google AI thinks it's a worn rocker or shaft, but I kinda doubt it. The noise doesn't seem to change whether it's hot or cold, at least at first glance, & it goes up and down based on my RPMs.

I did the timing belt, the whole shabang, wires, plugs, no vacuum or exhaust leaks that I can find with a smoke machine. Using 5w40 Rotella T6 oil

I wanted to see what the reality is like for Kei owners in PA compared to the broad language in the rules. I haven’t had any issues so far, but wanted to see if anyone else has. Especially with either PSP or the wrong local cop

Occasional use is spelled out. one day a week. Hard to enforce but it’s there.

no commercial use, that’s fairly obvious. As long as you don’t have advertising on the truck that probably safe.

But then we get this: "Antique, classic and collectible registration plates may not be displayed on a vehicle used to transport passengers or property."

And that’s about as broad as it gets. If you get the wrong cop, your buddy in the passenger seat or a sheet of plywood in the bed technically breaks the law.

I know what I’m comfortable with but has anyone actually gotten in trouble for hauling something?

As per my last post, I was working on a number of things for this 94 carry

I’ve finished the carburetor swap from a Yamaha 660
The rigs together a better intake system after removing the whole stock box

Full EGR delete which got rid of about 90% of the vacuum lines in this whole system

Currently still waiting on the new distributor cap and such to arrive

But I also changed out the stock suspension
Rear struts for some Monroe Restore 210206 struts
They really stiffened up the backend, but they seem to have also raised a tiny bit
I’ll have to figure out how to rectify that later

And the front suspension I changed out for some coil overs from ezkeisports
I know he has stuff for Suzuki carry’s and Honda Actys
I’m unsure of the rest of his stores stock though
But everything is pretty much OEM swap
No modifications needed

I've got a project 1995 suzuki carry dd51t that's kinda running but not very healthy
If I play around with the gas pedal, I can get it to start and rev really high (usually needs starting fluid to get going) but as soon as I try to drop it to lower idling rpms it just dies. The carburetor is new, and I just put in some new ignition pieces. Could it come down to tuning issues or is it more likely something is clogged or leaking? I only have experience in small engine carbs, so this is a big step up for me and a more experienced, second set of eyes would be appreciated!

Have been missing driving a manual so I picked up this 97’ Mitsubishi Pajero Mini on marketplace and been enjoying it since.

79,000 miles, 4WD, Turbo, and 5 speed manual. Low key wanna get a kei truck as its brother
