soarers are highly made in auto form, cos of it's nature to be a luxury car, there are manual but are reasonably rare, but you can get them one in every five or so. keep looking dont be in too much of a hurry, you'll find a manual just takes time a importer get them to track one down for ya. Hope it helps.

Most soarers are autos due to the fact that they market it to different groups of ppl. The 3.0L non turbo and the 4.0L V8 ones are almost 100% manuals. Hardly any executive in Jpn would want a manual in the upmarket version. You might be lucky to find a manual for the 2.5L turbo version.

But there is a manual twin turbo soarer out there if you really patience, and wait, and look around very hard.... but be mindful that owning a manual soarer can be a pain as parts for manual gearbox can be very hard to find if you ever stuff your box. So you gotta treat your car with respect.

definitely cruise mobiles, get a nice subtle kit for it, updated front lights or whatever they did for the later models, drop it so you can't drive over a piece of paper, 18inch rims... you're ready for a night out on the town! :)

but depends on what ur after, it it's just to cruise, maybe get one. But after performance and handling, look skyward :)

    • This is aem disk setting in aem tuner and still 180 dgree off or ignition on exhaust cycle is it from cas it self as cas seems wouldn’t fit in cam shaft if wrong position and wiring been verified any ideas 
    • Oh yeah that would work excellent. Should be the same diff housing & everything. Shoot me a text or call me 260-750-2246 -Cody 
    • Oh right, I didn't realise it was your car. Please do! Makes me feel better about mine. I also have a big scrape on the front left bumper where someone presumably used the wall to guide the car into a parking spot  But somehow all the funds go towards mechanical things and the cosmetics stay forever unfinished... Interesting, I don't think I have seen it before. But after seeing @PranK's rusty roofline on the BMW I'd probably leave it alone. Wouldn't want water to get in there.
    • Thanks mate, thought you might know the answer.     
    • Infiniti US are teasing a manual Q50 as a way to refresh a (very old) model. https://torquecafe.com/manual-performance-sedans-arent-dead-yet/ Can't be too technically difficult given the Z has the same motor with a manual gearbox......here's hoping there is a JDM version we can import here, that would save me a world of headaches
