Hey, I'm comming out! The whole time I've been on this forum (and thanks for all your help btw) I've been gleening information to keep my Vanette going srong.

I know there are heaps of rally & street macine type people on this forum but how many of you are Vanette Types or Urvanners? I've been driving 2 Vanetts for about 18 years now and would hate to think I'm the only one!

This forum has provided me with some solid information that has been very helpful in solving mechanical problems,thanks to all.

I'f I had a working Vanette I'd be one too! I reakon they're tops, just like a Datsun, only Vanly er?

They're most vanly indeed. Mine goes like stink!

C20's rock!
I used to have one. Even on big wheels it would pull all the way off the clock. Everyone used to pile into it, and I'd sober drive. (Before I took up drinking again :) ) We used to cram three in the front, and ten in the back. It was a mobile party. You'd pull up at your destination, and people would do a double take of the crowd piling out of the back..

I'd love to own another one oneday. They have some great advantages.
A low low diff. (Depending on the model)
Big wheel tubs.
And the best bit, theres no steering near the exaust manifold. It'd be too easy to flange a turbo straight onto the factory manifold. You could drawthrough turbo one for next to nix.
Imagine shaming out some ricer boy in a dirty old C20 van!!!!

Definatly You could store the race motor in the van on the off season and freak out alot of people at the lights. That reminds me, I was going to get back into hacking out my vanette on the weekend

wear the badge proud my man!
often thought abought owning a sleepy sidedraught people mover

Got to have one... Can we see some pics of these vans... would have loved to put my old charged a15 in one.. there a pimpin little thing...

haha yeah a15 turbo vanette would be awesome, massive frount mount and big bov to scare ppl heheheh ......

I'll post up some of mine but bear in mind it doesn't actually do anything
