- Bought a 94 Subaru Sambar Van that has an Akabou upgrade to the head. It makes it a bit faster. The van also has rotating front seats along with the super charging, AWD, moon roof, and power steering & windows. I love driving it!
One thing everybody's gotta remember that those old cars. They don't want to sell you. No parts for them because they want you to buy new cars
i want a kei truck and kei van for my farm. desperately. i love them
Estoy interesado en comprarla
These things are the absolute coolest. Thanks for sharing yours!
This would be a great little cheap and cheap to keep people mover and grocery getter. Pull out the back seats and it's a great little light delivery vehicle (florist, car parts, office supplies, etc.) or a great little trade van for a plumber, chimney sweep or home inspector. Add a 2" lift and mud tires and it'd be an awesome little mini RV.
Love the car Larry! 420th sub
Thank you so much, and 420 is a very auspicious number!
Interested in sale. Looking at importing, USA. Would like to get this supercharged and those rotating seats. Hell ya
I BOUGHT THE PREVIOUS MODEL,SUBARU SUPER COMFY 4WD MINIVAN...NOT BAD
I love this mini van. From Lao PDR
Hello! I'm just wondering, incase you decide to sell this one, or another Subaru sambar in the future, do you have a site where you host your sales? or possibly any contact info where we could get in touch? Thanks!
such a cool car! I am also interested
That thing looks like it would roll easily at speed with those teeny weeny wheels.
Need one of these!
Well done, great, Old Cute.boy .like.it Very nice .Thank you for sharing .
The supercharged Kei trucks and vans are much harder to find and hold their value well. I'd keep it
Omg omg omg, do want!!!
Is this still available? I'm on the Western Slope and would be interested in purchasing this.
Where are you located in the USA?
I want one!!!!!
Uh ummm. I love it
very cool van, man!
Hi, I’m writing from Orcas Island in WA state. I’ve been looking for all of the features that your sambar has. Is there any chance that this is still for sale??
It actually is for sale and I am looking for 9.5k
Are you still selling this?
Is there any information online about this akabou mod? Is it just the valve cover?
The Akabo engine is a complete drivetrain upgrade. Better valves, springs, piston, crank. It doesn't make the car any faster but it's designed to last twice as long as the standard engine. The only way to truly know if an engine is an Akabo one to get a VIN check out of Japan as anyone can paint a valve cover red. If you look it up, I think there's a translated article about it on Wikipedia. The engine was designed as an option for the Akabo delivery co-op in Japan (people could use their vans and deliver part time) so the engine was designed to take more wear and tear.
@@LawrenceCamera Thanks for the great info!
Will it make a comfortable camper car?
Probably better to go with an nv200 or First gen transit connect. They have more room and better MPG
Can you really get this on the highway? How would it do on snowy mountains?
It actually does great in the snow, I called the great equalizer cuz I can start passing people
I'd love to get a price on it
Do you import to USA?
Did you end up selling it?
Yeah I sold it maybe 2 years ago. The guy who bought It wrapped it and it looks great! The good news is it's staying in Colorado.
👍🏾 curious the price. I have a 96 literally identical, and just today bought some rotating front seats! Rare as hens teeth. The akoubu pistons is super cool!
For sale?
Can these be made available to Australia ?
Yes I'm pretty sure they can. Australian import rules for cars was updated and I think you can import them now.
How can i own this minivan
Who are you using for importing. ?
I imported this one myself but now I've been using beForward.jp and theImportGuys.com I was spending too much time to do it myself so it was worth it to hire people to do it for me.
Take my
money
But could you imagine it with a streetbike 1100 cc motor? Zoom
BTW - All Wheel Drive is not the same as 4 wheel Drive
I don't know, if you watch MotoCheez he takes his everywhere the 4 wheelers go
where are you located? i am interested in the van if you are plaining to sell it.
Thanks for the interest, I'm actually located in Colorado. Not sure if I'm going to sell it yet. I'm actually still waiting for my two other vans then we'll go from there.
Is anyone having any issues importing these in 2021? Cause my sambar Dias has been held at the port for over two weeks now.
Mine have been clearing pretty good so far. Just got one cleared about a week ago via the port of Tacoma
Aqui no Brasil onde comprar?
Onde comprar esse carro?
When u are ready to sell it, can u ship to the UK?
If you're interested in importing a japanese vehicle into the UK that's more than 10 years old, that'll be a lot cheaper for you than importing a vehicle that's less than 10 years old, when considering the UK's taxes and charges. For me, importing a 5 year old sambar cost me about £2000.
Is this for sale???
Not yet but I'm planning to sell it in the spring of 2021
👍
Beauty SAMBAR!
Slow down your camera hand movements. Or get someone else to video you, as you show us around the vehicles
