- Tour my 1993 Toyota Coaster Mini Bus that was converted into a motorhome when it was fresh off the assembly line. I am the first US owner of this rig as it was recently imported into the states from Japan.
The plan for this bus is to finish cleaning up the interior, perform some routine maintenance, and get it on the road! Some rebuild projects will come further down the line.

How long should I enjoy this rig as-is before working on interior updates?
@savvysprocket
We are so happy to see one of our imports in the wild. Thank you again for your business and we are happy to see you enjoying this wonderful rig. We will be following your channel for sure and we are excited to see what you will be doing to rig in the future.
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. 👍
Thanks for watching!
Agreed. Maybe could lighten up with some fresh paint, but not necessary.
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.
It was great meeting you and thank you for that Polaroid it is a very cool touch!
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.
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.
Do you happen to know how long it is? I'm interested.
It is about 23' long overall. Thanks for watching!
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!
Wow, how much did it cost all
It wasn't bad. About 1/4 the cost of a built Sprinter.
