So I am now a proud owner of a 1999 Legnum VR-4. Unfortunately can't drive it at the moment as DVLA doesn't want my money for road tax, will have to wait for logbook to come back with age-related registration and then pay them anyway for the time I wasn't allowed to use it.. other than that, seems a decent motor so far.
I guess it's time to sign up for the full membership to access a comprehensive workshop manual?
Autodata doesn't really help a they don't recognise this car, nor have I managed to establish an OBD connection using Autel AL319 and Delphi..so that's something that still needs working on.
Stripped the interior earlier this week and gave it a good deep clean, also touched up some slight surface rust spots around the cabin and boot..underseal next I guess.
Would appreciate some advice on remapping - as the UK and Japanese conditions are probably quite different (humidity, temperature etc.), has anyone remapped their ECU to best adapt to UK conditions and has that made a significant gain on performance/fuel consumption?
First (and only) time I drove it, I also noticed a noise which kind of sounded like a worn wheel bearing but since it was just MOTd, I assume this is something else - could it have something to do with the 4WD system or center bearing?
Any advice would be appreciated
