Toyota coaster based on mega cruiser - Toyota Mega Cruiser, 4.1L, 1999
Kara-Bus or Mega-Buhlobus. In fact, not a prototype and not of its own design, but a Toyota Coaster bus on a Toyota MegaCruiser chassis, just this is not provided in the model menu. Belongs to Dima Mamaev (Karabas), all modernization work was done by Dima Eroshenko (Gnome). Since they are both lazy, I write. The device is unique, I don't think there will be another one like this in Russia. Its original purpose is not very clear, since a completely ordinary civilian bus cabin is put on the Megacruiser chassis (anyone interested can see its TD here www.megacruiser.com/specifications/). Some of the Megakruser's technical options are excluded (or not used), the frame has a greater length with the same base length. In particular, there is no wheel pumping, but there is everything for it, except for the controls themselves and special hub covers.
In the process of converting for an off-road camper, the following was done:
- the rear overhang was reduced by cutting off 70 cm of the frame, the body was cut off and re- docked accordingly;
- enlarged arches for the installation of 37 "wheels (mud Nitto on disks from shishiga);
- installed a lever and a lowered engagement rod from the passenger compartment;
- installed a front winch KamAp 15000;
- welded aluminum snorkel;
- front and rear light-alloy power bumpers;
- underbody protection front and rear tank;
- light-alloy outer frame for protection from trees;
- additional light (six tank headlights).
It seems like everything ... The
check showed the presence of LSD of the Thorsen type in both bridges, it should also be present in the distribution box.
Kara-Bus's release "to the people" will take place at the opening of the Suifun Trophy Season 2010
Price tag: 1,000,000 ₽
An interesting option.
Only I didn’t understand: did they put the box on Mega’s frame, or did the Japanese give birth?
A stunning car for a variety of trips ... and to the ends of the world and beyond)
zWerg
and it was possible to put it on record? O_O
at the beginning you register, and then make at least some kind of amphibian out of it, let us live in Russia and then everything is n ... th, I asked why put in the mark "other cars", in response now there are so many models and there is no time to figure out who it is necessary then to figure out what for the others, sedan, station wagon or van. like this)))
Since there are numbers, it means they still managed to put them on record!
Good job! Very impressive!
this is just a crap! that the cruiser drove into shock ... I thought there was nothing more that might surprise. and the coaster ... well, in general, the thrill ... it's a pity we don't have such - we can't see it live
yes, I have no swap. But after talking with the "Russian Japanese" I realized that I didn't need it, it's easier to put a good compressor station ...
A quote from the description above: "... In particular, there is no wheel pumping, but everything is there for it, except for the controls themselves and special hub covers ..." How are the controls from the driver's seat organized? What is the compressor capacity? Is there a receiver? Here in this picture: radikal.ru/F/s010.radikal.../2d/9fc75fc02a86.jpg.html Does the hose (cable?) Running along the lever towards the wheel refer to pumping? This is a photo from the article, as I understand, you have no swap?
The pipe is already there, it came with the car, it was installed by the Japanese ... Hella /
By the way, at the expense of the compressor + a good receiver, and even you have a lot of space)))) ... you can put a loud pipe ...
here the guys chewed everything very well:
club-teana.com/viewtopic.php?id=12 the
topic has grown already almost 300 pages long, I've been reading it since about 40 ... I wrote there mainly on air control valves ... there are a lot of pictures of installing compressors (some have 2 pieces each), guys actively meet in Moscow, share messes))))
great bus turned out!
with such stained-glass windows it will be hard in the forest, you may have a different forest.
