Old Japanese cars always reliable. Myself driving a 1990 Mitsubishi Galant Super Saloon converted to VR4. Only problem is ECU wiring. Every now and then, engine will fire up as 2 cylinders. A little knock on the dashboard and all done.

Try that with latest cars. Too many computers and electronics.

Yeah that's my main concern... The car came carbureted stock? If convert to ECU could be quite troublesome I think

Not really. If wiring from similar model, it is a direct swap.

IMO, carbie cars easier to maintain. If cannot start, either no petrol or weak battery.
