i HAD a 1989 Mits Delica starwagon exceed 4WD since 2000, ok pa noon, parang ako lang meron nun, e ngayon, di na..., may pics ako nun sa gallery..pero had it sol because of economic sense..mahal diesel and parts(pajero underchasis iyon)...aquired namin ng father ko from AIA, fully restored (including a 2-inch lift and audio upgrade)to its tip-top condition last 2003 until i got it sold last june 2005.
now i have a 1991(jdm)/1996(phdm) toyota liteace fxv 4wd...i may say ok lang namang mas mura ng bahagya sa parts, pero malaki difference sa diesel consumption, at sa performance, di ganun nagkakalayo sa delica ko.space wise,
i prefer 4wd vans for 1 reason: its underchasis are much bigger and sturdier than any local van of the same unit. and this is the real reason why i opted for jdm: the local vans here dont have 4wd, e di ko naman feel ang SUV, parang kotse din...iba and space ng van. maganda pa ang tayo ng JDMs than its local counterparts.
vehicle buff din ako, kaya marunong din ako tumingin ng maganda at maayos, which is 1 of my advantage in acquiring a good-best jdm import.
kaya kung may pera ko, i will definately get a 1996-1998 JDm Delica spacegear 4wd superexceed, freshly imported and supervise its conversion personally by me..
di naman ako particular sa interior gadgets, pero masmalaman, mas ok, pero ang habol ko talaga sa jdm its engine and underchasis parts..
