    most probably around 1990-1992, don't be scared, usually good condition pa yung mga unit, don't rely too much on the year model, just check the engine and suspesion

    was able to test drive it kanina with my dad. color red/silver (two tone). kakatawa kasi yung signal lever sa manibela nasa kaliwa kaya pag signal ako wiper gumagana bwhahahaha. eto mga findings ko:

    - medyo matigas yung manibela for power steering. sabi dealer check nila baka kulang lang sa PS fluid. pero sabi ko check nila mabuti
    - ganda suspension and wala ingay engine, di tumatalsik langis pag bukas kung nung takip kahit i rev
    - aircon amoy sariwa, matalim yung lamig.
    - galing din nung sidemirrors...hasnep tumitiklop.
    - di na gumagana yung heater.
    - me mga buttons din di ko maitindihan like yung switch to power/econ/? ewan ko kung para saan yun. bas trip japanese yung manual
    - stock lahat sa loob labas.
    - check ko yung tag sa seatbelt, 1994
    - mileage niya 63,345 (sabi nila di nila kinalikot..as is) low mileage siya for a 8-9 year old car

    anyway, nag down na kami kanina. detail nila yung sasakyan, quality check and rehistro na sa pangalan namin. 1 week daw ok na to. Out of town kagad namin to para masubok, puwede ibalik pag me diperensya. Sabi ko dun sa owner "paano ko babalik to kung nadedo kami sa expressway (knock on wood)" Sabi niya quality yung conversion nila compared sa mga auctioned SUVs sa subic. Well sapalaran na to.

    power/econ/
    Para sa A/T iyan. Kapag 'power', mas mataas na revs bago siya mag-shift (gagalitin muna). Kapag 'econ', shift agad. Pero halos wala namang pinagkaiba ang dalawang mode na iyan. Iwan mo na lang sa 'power' para ready ka parati.

    Good luck on your new ride! Happy trails.

    Thanks, saan ba nakakabili ng murang hard cover ng rear tire. How much din siya (price range)? Di naman kailangan RVR yung naka emboss. kahit plain lang tapos pa body color ko na lang.:wink:

    If the price is over P300K, i would rather settle for a local Space Wagon then dress it up with RVR surplus parts (front and rear facia, meron sa Banawe when i looked). You can get a '96-'98 1.8 Spacewagon for the P300-350K price if you look around... With this you'll avoid the problems that you may encounter with conversions. Seems to be a bit pricey pa at P300K for an RVR...

    ownertype,
    congrats on the buy! :D ok na yung price. duda lang ako sa mileage, but as long as the condition is good, ok na. ganun din yung steering ng rvr namin, medyo matigas, mas malambot pa nga yung sa hilux w/ 31' tires
    try mo yung 4wd sa soft soil, mud or rocks, to be sure it works. natuwa ako dun 1st time i used it, kasi 1st time ko magdrive ng realtime 4wd

    salamat muli, i was looking forward for your feedback upon opening my PC.

    Hybrid, So to test if the fulltime/realtime (pareho lang ba to) 4wd is working is gamitin ko kagad offroad? wala ba indicator yun? pano ko rin malalaman kung gumagana yung turbo. sabi nung friend ko me trooper me fan like sound ka daw maririnig. sabi ko baka naman auxilliary fan ng radiator yun he he. Sensya na at medyo bopols ako sa ganito, lumaki kasi kami lahat na puro auto lang e, first lang namin magka SUV.

    we also considered yung space wagon kaso di kasya sa garahe. extended kasi likod nito. me nakita din pala ako dun sa dealer namin nung pajero jr mini 3 door (pajerito tawag nila) ang liit para siya vitara actually. kaso di namin afford at P430k. :oops:

    ownertype,

    I-jack mo yung front wheels. Tapos paandarin mo. Kapag umabante, gumagana 4wd nun (kaso nahulog naman siya sa jack hehehe). Wala siyang indicator kasi auto system na siya with no levers or buttons.

    Yung turbo mararamdaman mo naman ang power. Mahirap i-discern ang sound niya. Usually yung intercooler fan ang maririnig mo or yung a/c fan.
