    *sir digitel - i was hoping against hope that i could find one just like searching a needle in a haystack

    *sir GTi - we already talk about the financial burden this would entail & she specifically pointed out my budget...sabi nya ano silbi ng van kung bibili na naman ng isa pa at mahal pa so there goes the litany of cons kaya i won't insist better stick to the plan baka maunsyami pa hehe

    thanks mga bros on the advices

    Hahaha~ Kahit around 30-50k ayaw parin? You must understand that if you really did get an FX and then would still have to bother to do an engine swap, in the end you might actually end up spending more.

    actually sir i'm not thinking anymore of engine replacement but more of finding good unit/engine w/ at least presentable appearance hehe

    if i have my way sir i will choose what you propose but its not the case here its more of practicality over convenience...even if i did get a cheap but good unit i'll take care of it coz when it comes to vehicles "maalaga naman po ako"...anyway my practical car is ?_coming soon_? but my convenient ride is our jumbo...so there goes the comparison, thanks for the info on sulit...i'm always on the lookout na nga po eh kahit ayosdito nag-aabang na din hehe

    since i was given a thread about this model, thanks Admin hope its not late hehe

    i'm also going to ask mga owners here where do you sourced your parts (engine & transmission) brand new or surplus???

    what about mods? meron pa ba?

    is it possible to convert the manual window & door lock to automatic para maging power amenities nya??? pwede ba?

    then the rest follows afterwards...

    source parts engine and tranny, madami tayong makukuhaan niyan, meron sa Cavite, Raon, Blumentrit, Banawe etc....yes, power windows and power door locks conversion from manual, madali lang yan...marami ng nagwa niya, tingin-tingin ka lang along di hi-way sa inyo. Lalo sa Banawe dami nagpapaganyan...price depende sa usapan niyo, kung ikaw hahanap ng materials, mas mura kasi labor installation na lang, pero kung parts and labor sa kanila...medyo pricey, pero ok na rin.

    e since pangharabas lang naman, Hyundai Grace na lang? or yung H-100 may power amenities.

    ^Onga noh! Bat di ko na-isip yan! Here we are thinking about a car that can potentially give you cracked cylinder heads or cracked whole engine blocks when there are more capable cars out there that can be had for the same budget.

    The Hyundai Grace is a very worthy car. Basically a rebadged Delica, you can bet that its a reliable car. Parts are also easily interchangeable with Mitsubishi parts if the situation requires it. Hyundai Grace Singkit All Power Diesel MT - 2000 | Cars for sale Quezon City | AyosDito.ph

    An even more refined option would be the Kia Pregio. Now that's one van that can rival the Starex in terms of comfort. Lubos lubos na talaga para sa barrio. Kia Pregio MT - 98 | Cars for sale Las Piñas | AyosDito.ph
