Hello mga ser newbie here and very new to the world of cars and autos.
Nakabili po kami ng Vanette 2 weeks ago to carry the family around, pre-loved one and we are thrilled.
We are based in HK and nakita na namin yung pictures and we like what we see, just in time for our holiday around July-August.
Now here comes the desire to customize the vehicle.
Heto po ang question ko.
If I buy aftermarket rims/mags for it what specs should i talk about, same with the tires.
Do i really need to buy car insurance as well now that im an owner of a vehicle?
Thanks in advance.

^^^ Welcome bro.
I suggest you use the OEM specs for the tyres and mags. You can try a package with different specs. However, I suggest that you have them mounted first to see how they will look like with the van.
I doubt it if you can still engage a comprehensive insurance with our Vanette. Normally, they only insure vehicles less than 10 years old.

I agree with CVT on retaining the OEM rim/tire specs of your Vanette. Keep in mind that aside from the main purpose of the purchase to move the family around during vacation here but also to keep the van's passenger COMFORTABLE. You can maximize this by keeping the specs stock. At the most, you could replace the rims with the updated rims of the Vanette using the Grand Coach rim design. This way, you keep it stock specs but "upgrade" its looks.
As for the insurance, there are still some insurance firms who cover past 10-year old vehicles with added premium to it. My '83 240D is still insured.
Awesome quick replys. Thank You very much.
More questions.
How much is the selling price for decent rims brand new and second hand...same with tires?
What tires do you recommend for all around performance?
The van needs to go from Laoag to Baguio.
Thanks in advance.

Gud Am mga Sir/s:
Ask ko lang po sana kung ano recommended na Oil for our vanettes???
Balak ko po magpa-Change Oil at tune-up na din .. Maganda po ba sa Petron or other Stations???
Please provide feedbacks po.
Thanks,
Boi
For my Vanette baby,- am using semi-synthetic oil of Shell. Dapat ito every 5KKm, but I seldom hit this mileage in a year, as the Vanette is sparingly used. So, I do oil change every year (after 3TKm or so)....

Thanks for the reply Sir CVT ... May promo po kasi Shell ngayon na may Freebies ..
Hanapin ko na lang po dun yung Oil na Semi-synthetic .. More Power po!
Mga sirs, is there a way ba na para mapalitan ang jettings ng carb ng vanette to something smaller kasi medyo nahalata ko lumalakas na naman sa gas ang van koSo far so good naman at dependable parin ang baby vanette ko. Happy holidays na din to all vaneteers natin and more power.

DKS16H NISSAN MAXIMA A/C COMPRESSOR products, buy DKS16H NISSAN MAXIMA A/C COMPRESSOR products from alibaba.com
Nice pre loved unit you have!! With the conduction stickers on it attached!!
The rims? Use the stock one first then try to find rims from late 1995-1998 Vanettes or jackpot, rims from the Grand Vanette!! Tires? Sundin mo yung stock.
Car Insurance?? Insurance companies dont allow vehicles more than 10 years old to be insured. Be a safe driver.
Happy Driving!
Good afternoon mga Ka-Vanette...

Pasensiya na bro.,- napuntahan ko lang si bro.V747 dahil may tinignan akong sasakyan sa may tabi niyang kalye... Isinabay ko lang iyon dahil may dental appointment ang isa kong bata sa may tapat ng ADMU.... Pati si bro.V747 hindi rin makaalis dahil may pinapagawa sa bahay... Naabala ko lang nga siya.....
Next time....
