    yun nga din naisip ko e, laspag na mga grace/h100 na nakita ko. 40k lang ba surplus na 4d56? tdic? c/w transmission?

    Hindi sasara yung upuan kapag 4d56 ng Pajero ilalagay mo unless ire-route mo ang intercooler. Top mount kasi. Kaya naman tumakbo ng Grace sa non-turbo 4d56. Mga 70-80bhp yun depending on model year.

    Yung Besta 2.2 ko 72 bhp lang pero walang problema sa akyatan. Magaan lang kasi. Para kong nakasakay sa lata ng 555. hehehe. Nalulukot pa yung body dahil sa road stress.

    I've been in the Rent a van for quite some time too. As per my experience, malakas sa rentahan ang Starex. Sosyal kasi ang dating and malakas ang A/C. As in may mga nag rerent na naka specify sa isip nila na STAREX ang rerentahin nila because of the sosi feeling. Sumunod na dun yung Nissan Urvan at Toyota Hi-Ace.

    L300 van ang gamit ko dati. Isa lang ang masasabi ko, sumakit ulo ko sa kasusubok magpalamig ng A/C.

    Pasintabi po sa mga naka JDM na van pero for rent a van purposes, hindi ako bibili ng JDM vans. Alam na natin na converted ang mga ito, that means "some" conversions are not properly done which means delikado dahil steering are pinag uusapan dito. nother "con" ng JDM ay yung balitad na sliding door for passenger which is dangerous lalo na kung may pasahero kang batang makulit (believe me, dami kong naging ganung pasahero).

    Pag maganda sasakyan mo, meron kumukontrata sayo ng matagalan. Sa experience ko, there was a time na rent yung van ko for 1 week. Everyday ako bumabyahe from Manila/Dagupan vice versa. ABS-CBN ang nag rent sakin at artista ang pasahero ko. One of them is Nikki Valdez.

    For me, masarap ang business na rent a van, kumukita ka na, nakakapasyal ka pa.

    niwde, ano yan? mb100?

    we're still studying the idea kasi, no rush but it's looking more like 75% decided na kami. (i haven't posted it here in the forum yet, we had another baby last march 25! it's a girl! growing family so hindi na kami kasya sa sedan haha!) gusto lang namin ng family van then rent it out on the side since di naman namin gagamitin everyday. more like a twice-a-month family vehicle for us so instead of having it in the garage 28 days out of 30 e di make it earn on the side. kaya nga under consideration din ang new starex. but if i can get a comparatively good 2nd hand then that will be the first choice (kuripot ang lolo nyo!). my wife wants the new starex (she does not know what to do with my 58% salary increase :D given last month kasi! women!)

    Starex is a good choice din naman. Though the 12 seater version is a bit cramped and has leaf springs instead of the 9 seater's coil springs.

    Non-electronic ang MB100. Descendant siya ng engine sa '77 300D ko.
