  1. You are correct, its actually from the 1960's. Called the Isuzu BY30 Light Bus, I would say the predecessor to the Journey. Not much mentioned online about this bus. But as a school kid used to travel on one of these which ran the 119 route. Much nicer than the Journey I must say.

  2. Hi guys this is my first post. I had a Maruti 800 and sold the car few months back. To be honest im bit tired of indian car quality. Now i had somewhere around 1 mil and looking to buy a Japan car. currently im thinking about Mitsubishi Galant 1989 - 1990 model or maybe ASP model. Appreciate if you guys could help me with more recommendations with similar range cars and more informations about Galant. ?

  3. now that's an interesting car - a friend of mine had one used it for a couple of years without any major niggles than to replace the shocks. Other options off the top of my head : Lancer CB Series, Mazda 323 (So called Butterfly model) ,Sunny B13 (Doctor Sunny- usually overrated and overpriced) Corolla E90(Almost always Overpriced), Carina AT170 (sometimes overpriced), Tercel/Corsa and if you're into hatches Corolla 2/s come to the equation. All of these despite their age will be a better experience than the Maruti 800 (with all due respect). Time to time good cars pop up -so I'd suggest you keep following the classified sites as well as the dozens of Facebook Groups for a few select models than stick with one also if possible have a few test drives and experience a few cars. Some cars when you drive it you feel it's not for you and some you feel meet your expectations. All these cars are OLD -they've survived insurgencies, oppressive regimes, civil wars, tsunamis, landslides, bomb explosions etc. so do keep aside at least 100,000 to sort out any immediate repairs. A lot of older cars are on duplicate CR and while that does not amount to anything in reality - in the local market people make it a bargaining point so if you're ok with someone using it as a haggling point when you sell - do consider those as well. There are some good cars out there going for a reasonable price due to the duplicate CR. Good luck and please keep us updated. The 1980-1990's gave us some nice cars and looking forward to seeing what you end up with

  4. I had a similar issue in my old Baleno, a throttle body clean up did the job. As iRage said the ECU could be faulty as the programming would be different from Auto to Manual.

  5. What is the ECU it is running ? Assuming that all the sensors are in working order and fitted correctly; did you put the ECU out of the new engine ? Did you reprogram the existing ECU ? In some cars the ECU for a manual and auto are different so you have to swap the ECU as well. In some cars the ECU needs to be re-programmed.

  6. The Toyota ones for the most part are not that bulky...plenty of room between the radiator and the grill even with the motors...and the covers are pretty small and the lights gets tucked under the blank space directly behind the bumper and inbetween the wheel arch cover.
