Hi Guys

Yep, I think it would be a great idea if the library did that, but it might be pretty hard to convince them! There has been lots of interest above in a r33 set, but unfortunately I need a R34 one – which is must more expensive as well - and I’ve only had two people email me so far.

So if you are interested in an R34 workshop manual, send me a message, and would someone else like to step forward to coordinate a R33 one?

Remember, it is NOT illegal for us to buy a copy and share it!

500 pages would take about a day to photocopy on a fully automoatic photocopier not to mention that you'd probably have to tear up the book page by page to properly scan it.

Took 2-3 hours just to copy about 200 pages, and had to be done at night so we weren't busted for copying private infoformation etc.

Your always hoping no one comes in and asks what your doing for that time, and using up 500+ sheets of paper would cost $100 to $200, so no boss would sit there and say it's ok with them.

No one would pay $500+ then scan it for you, then PDF it and then give it to you for free.

Why not just save up the cash and buy it's it wouldn't take long to buy a copy.

The one problem I see with a group buy is that somemone will always some how lose it and you'll never see it again and they probably stop turning up much or never at all again and some how be pretty hard to get in contact with.

Has any 1 stepped out for doing this for an r33 version?? If not i will buy one in a few weeks with my own cash. If there is genuine interest lets do a group buy and then some1 will have to scan it then send it around, not hard i can do it at uni. just by reading the posts "i've got 20 bux" or ppl that replied similar we have some interest. I may end up just buying it then scanning it then selling it 2nd hand. we'll c. Zagan has a point with the losing thing but if its in digital then the rule should be the person who loses it gets the digital copy printed in colour and bound again or something like that to protect the others in the deal.

I just bought the full R32 and R33 workshop manuals in japanese (all the volumes).

copies? umaaarrr... they're over likke 1000 pages in total, I'm not gonna be fotocopyin em lol. You can borrow em if you want and DIY :D

Yeah its relatively easy to understand with the diagrams... like for example to unmount the engine it has an arrow around each screw and says "pull here" :confused:

Err...scanning 500 pages and compressing to pdf...would take a while

Probably' date='but not impossible

    • Fark what are the changes of that snapping like that, clean. Nek minnit, custom radiator goes in, with built in oil cooler like those discontinued PWR ones from yesterdeacades ago
    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
