How long should I enjoy this rig as-is before working on interior updates?

Happy you found my channel! I have more videos in the works on this thing that I hope to get out soon. Also some new adventures coming with spring almost here.

Great mini bus RV… The interior looks good as-is. 👍

Agreed. Maybe could lighten up with some fresh paint, but not necessary.

I'm actually planning to import a Japanese camper, for now however; I will be building out a cargo trailer, ill be saving up after to import either a bus or a smaller Japanese motorhome, i just like the design more. Compared to what is found in the US.

Loved seeing this at Japanese car day at Larz. I was the one who gave the Polaroid to you guys lol, seemed like a good vehicle to use up a photo on.

There is also the possibility that there is a door opening button under the body near the door.

I haven't seen anything like this on mine. Have you seen this option on a Coaster before?

Just going by the ones we operate at the mine site I am on, but these are reasonably new buses

Beautiful! What kind of mpg do you get?? Thanks Nicky.
@savvysprocket8 ай бұрын
I am getting about 15MPG at the moment however once I swap the rear differential I should be able to get about 20MPG.

Nice videos. Just subbed. One thing though & this is just a friendly criticism. Is there any chance you could work on dropping the dozen and dozens of times you say Umm & Ermm per video. Not trying to be an arse hat its just an opinion & you know wot they say about them & Bum holes. . Great videos & am looking forward to the next shop update 👍

Called out! That is something I have been working on getting better at. With more videos I hope to get them cleared up. Thanks for the deep dive on my channel I see some other comments from you which is great! Happy to have a new viewer.

How long does it take to coast up to 60mph (100kph?)? And how comfortable is it coasting at 65-70mph? Fuel economy?

Thanks for checking out the video. I honestly have not had a ton of seat time in the bus to have fully clear answers here yet. With the current gearing it is much happier at city speeds compared to highway speeds. My plan is to adjust the gearing in the differential to bring down engine RPMs at highway speeds. Once that project is complete MPG should be at around 20mpg. Stay tuned for videos on this gearing project and future updates.

@@savvysprocket change the heat ratio! Great idea! Everything I read online basically said they don't like to go faster than 55-60 mph, so that would really help. But I also saw that full throttle it takes forever to get to 60 mph. Changing the gear ratio will obviously make that worse. Touchy subject!

@@asdfgoogle that would be the non turbo model taking a while to get up to speed. This turbo model has much more torque and power and cruise really easy.

Wow, how much did it cost all

It wasn't bad. About 1/4 the cost of a built Sprinter.

ABSOLUTLY HORRIBLE !!! DATED INTERIOR NOT MODERN AND UNCOMFORATBLE. CHECK OUT THE 200 SERIES TOYOTA CAMROADS IN COMPARISION

It is a 1993 so the dated interior is to be expected. Thanks for giving the video a watch.
