HEY NICE MAN BUT WHERE DID U GET THAT FRONT LIP ON UR CB7 PM ME PLease

[NutBucket]

NICE TRUCK! Seriously, that sucker is sweet!

[DrLove'sKuDang]

well i gotta say, i dont care for trucks at all... but with your photography skills, it looks fuckin sick!!!!! almost makes me want one too.

[NutBucket]

Looks a heck of a lot better than a lot of the SUVs sold today....with the off-road capability to match!

[palinix]

Very Nice. And it's a VX LTD as well. Probably has pretty much every option available for that years model. I love cars made for the JDM.

That things easily puts the US LX450 to shame.

[Ronald_Type-R]

Thanks guys! Yeah I love this thing..Picks up fairly quick (feels a bit faster than my CB), and it never revs past 2500RPM! Oh and when the turbo spools up and is @ full boost, all hell breaks loose hehe

Honestly, after driving the truck, I've found new love for turbos and big diesel engines..Heck, this thing can prolly pull a boat while idling!! Hahaha (prolly not), but you get my point..Driving the truck on normal streets, the engine idles more than it revs..I love it And the RHD, and the 4WD system w/ triple diff lockers just make me love it even more hehehe the truck makes a good toy for winter time like these I gotta say tho, driving this truck makes all the other cars on the street looks really small haha even a guy in a lifted Cherokee looks up at me when I went passed him on an icy hill, and I'm only a small asian guy ahaha

It's not much faster than other trucks out there tho..I've raced Silverados, Tahoe, Yukon and a Navigator off the line..I kept up side by side with all of them, but not fast enough to pass them and merge in front of them hehehe oh well, maybe things will change after I put in an intercooler and a turbo-back exhaust...

As for the options, yes, I was quite surprised of the things it comes with for a truck from the early 1990 era..It even comes with heated seats, 6 speakers, 4 tweeters, separate heaters for the rear passengers, and of course all the power options (P/S, PFM, A/C & Digital Climate Control, P/W, CC, power sunroof and others) Not surprising for a car made for the Japanese market I guess..But the fact that everything works wonderfully makes me a happy man The truck is definitely built like a tank...Nothing fancy of course, but as long as everything function and perform well, then that's all that matters to me

My friend suggested putting a boost gauge in the truck..This might just be something that I'll be doing in the near future hehehe

that truck is sick man

[i97supratti]

SWEET!

What camera do you use? Man that thing looks badass. That thing can go in deep water I'm assuming from that snorkel? The entire engine and car interior is waterproofed?

[oneoffaccord]

nice photos and not a bad suv you got there.

[AccordWarrior]

Where'd this come from, Ronald? (grumbles)

Is this a true JDM thing imported to Canada or did you get all the parts over time?

I think your truck is nicer than my car

[growguy]

Is this a true JDM thing imported to Canada or did you get all the parts over time?

100% sure this is true jdm imported to canada.. remember you can bring over *ANY* jdm car that is 15 years old according to the build month.

[NAiL05]

Diesels are the shit. I wouldnt mind driving one of those. Those are pimpin.

[N9netwoAccord]

[NutBucket]

Except he'd leave you and the H-D snorkel in the mud....literally!
