Hi Guys,
I would like to introduce you to Energym Fabricators (www.energym.co.ke). We are the new kids on the block :) and our first vehicle is the new sensational All Blacks plying Rongai route...probably the best Mat in Nbi right now, if not in KE. We own several 33-Seaters and formed Energym after being totally disappointed by the works of the major players in the industry. Most of them do mass fabrication with very cheap poor quality materials and give you timelines that they never keep. Our first Mat was done by Dodi...was supposed to take 45-60 Days BUT ended up taking 6 Months!!!!!!...and it may have taken longer, was it not for the shameless 'Kitu Kidogos' that the workers asked for daily. A few months on the road, the vehicle started falling apart...with leakages, windows breaking. So after having to take it back for 'Riko' we have spent almost 6.5M on that vehicle which was basic!!!.. We found out ommisions of certain materials e.g. Roof by Dodi...really really unprofessional.
At Energym, we intend to change this!!. We don't do mass Fabrication!! Our policy is one Vehicle at a time. We do the work in 60 days!. Furthermore, we offer flexible payment solutions to our esteemed clients. For instance, after the client buys the Chassis at 3.5M, he pays about 1M for Fabrication of a basic Bus, then the rest in interest-free installments for 6-12 months. This is because we are also in the industry and understand the needs, problems and challenges of Matatu owners. With our offer, Clients are able to focus on getting the returns on their investment as soon as possible. Feel free to contact us.
@Junior121121..how can we get the contacts of the Kalasinga offering loans???
.and btw, for the new or potential investors, the figures presented by Junior121121 are on point and reflect our own experience...

What expenses will you have paid for to get the net? Thitifini, what route are you on? Petrols only made sense when the difference in price was close to 600k. But they are still as good as 5Ls, just do a decat, fit an aftermarket chip and have it remapped then buy me a beer. Do you mind expounding on what this is and what the impact on fuel consumption is? I will gladly pay for the beer. The de-cat basically gives you a high flow exhaust. Have the catalytic converter removed. Get a Unichip installed and get an eco tune done by one of the pro tuners. Only two in Nairobi. Simon Sharpe of Sharpe services in Karen or the master tuner himself Amit Pandya of AMS chip tuning. Avoid Sharpe he works with some kalasinga who has a problem with dark skin. Last job he did for me was shoddy and they just don't care. AMS is pricy but they do a good job. Never had a van tuned at AMS, but they once did a Subaru for me. Plus you might want to replace the oxygen sensor before the tune with a new one not second hand. Pombe si lazima so do not feel obliged. @Matatuman, am considering changing the engine to diesel. Am told that most likely I'll have to change gear box too. Any experience/advice on this? Total cost might go to the range of 300k from what I pick from local mechanics.

@Thitifini, I hear there are a couple of people who have done it. I do not have the details but can share if and when I get.
I however doubt you can swap with the diesel 1KD or 2KD engines due to costs of other related components.

I don't do too much work to my matatus (Body wise) but would like to visit you guys next week - are you working on a car? I completely agree on Dodi - that's why i stopped working with them. The first car took me 5 months - not acceptable. Send me your email and i will send you khalasingas mobile number.

Good job here.
What recommendations would you give for seat material for a school bus? The hardiest available understanding pupils. Thanks.
I see no mention of Banbros. We added a Hino, see how that goes, and the body works are terrible! Exactly how @TeamW describes. Banbros walituangusha raundi this!
