Mga Sirs,

Idagdag ko lang po sa naunang post ko. How about a Grand Coach edition. Is this a better version of a Vanette? May nakita din akong ads about it.

99 Nissan Vanette Grand Coach Edition
Limited Edition
Local Unit ( not converted)
Not Japan Surplus
2nd owned
All power ( steering wheel.windows,side mirror,central lock)
12 seater ( best for family use )
Captains seats
Chrome grills
Limited mags
Dual aircon
Wood paneling
2 tone
Complete stickers
Cool box
Well maintained ( decent used )
67tkm only
Smooth suspension
Strong dual aircon
NO OVERHEAT
Quiet engine
Fuel efficient

Is it true ba na pag gasoline fed eh local unit sya at di converted? Sensya na po kung marami akong tanong.

Earlier on this thread, nakalagay nga na may gas engine na 8 sparkplugs, hindi local yun.
sori di ko alam difference ng grand coach.
1. mahirap i-maintain compared sa mga fx at car kasi yun engine ng vanet eh nasa ilalim ng upuan. so far, ang pinakamahirap at di yata magagawa ng mabilisan ay pagpalit ng fan belt. di ko alam sa ibang van baka ganun din naman.
2. yes madaming spare parts.
3. malakas sa gas. pero meron bang van na gas na di malakas ang konsumo?
4. mas comfortable ang ride kasi di siksikan. konti lang makakaupo compared sa ibang big van dahil sa design ng mga seats. lugi ka dito kung balak mo ipang-service.

Kahit naman anong van mabibili mo na luma na, eh talagang may prob kang mae-encounter dyan. for sure yan.
ang suggestion ko talaga ever since, i-convert na lang to lpg.
ganun pa rin ang konsumo, pero mas magaang sa wallet. ganun ginawa ko sa 1996 vanet ko. sobrang happy ako sa decision ko. walang pagsisisi ever since. lalo na ngayon june bawi ko na investment ko after 1 year. check mo lpg threads dito, nasa 17/liter lang sa ngayon.

Grand Coach?- Regular Vanette lang iyan with minor changes in aesthetics... like side stickers, front grille and mags, if I remember correctly. But all features are the same with regular Vanettes.... Nothing of an advantage in performance.

uy, may thread pala ng nissan vanette dito...malakas pala sa gas ito, eh..hehehe...

**buraot** · June 9th, 2009 06:04 PM

question lang po sa mga naka-nissan vanette...

ano gamit nyo xcs o unleaded?

**CVT** · June 10th, 2009 08:45 AM

I understand that you now can't use Petron Unleaded (E10) because this vehicle still has a carburetor...

You can still use Shell Unleaded because this is still pure gasoline. So, just to be on the safe side in case Shell makes the same move silently, I have (very) recently upgraded to either Petron XCS or Shell Premium.....

i own a 98 grand coach, la naman problema. dami ding parts sa banawe (new/surplus). coolbox lang ung nagloloko, pero lahat naman is ok. last na pagawa ko is nagpalit lang ng alternator dahil sa overcharging problem (2.5k surplus). di din issue ung overheating pala kasi 2 na aux fan nito compared sa mga lumang modelo.
medyo malakas sa gas (siguro 7-8lang to), pero ok lang, malamig naman ang aircon kaya ok sa malayuan at family outings.

Wrong.
I always use Shell E10 on my LPG-powered carburetor engine Vanette 1996, ever since it came out.
