I had a nice find on the net today. This place prints english translated owners manuals and service books for a whole heap of cars - they even do stageas

http://www.jpnz.co.nz/

they have a link for factory workshop manuals, but they won't do a printing run until the number are viable. i'm thinkin about putting my name on the list- i reckon it'd be handy to have on the shelf.

You can have my handbook for $25 posted. I doubt they will get enough to ever do the Stagea workshop manual. You can buy the English translated R33 manual and get a copy of the Japanese language manual on cd and that should sort out most things.

i've already bought one owners handbook off here. i was told "english and jap". but is all jap with some random english titles, so it's pretty much useless. i reckon the proper one would be handy to have in the car.

you paid for the japanese service manual? Hope it wasn't any more than the cost of a CD and postage. AFAIK it was available for free to download outside of SAU.

unfortunately, yes. like i said i asked the guy if it was in english. he said alot of it was.......but it's not.

let me guess, the PDF had an english index? lol

nah this isn't PDF, this is an orginal Nissan owners manual. the sort of thing you'd get when you buy the car from a dealer.

the handbook I am offering is the English translation by JPNZ (no Japanese language in it at all). I also got the Japanese one with the car but i doubt anybody wants that one.

i have an original hand book

it had 3 uses

has a table of what weight oil to use

has factory tyre info

had a page on how to manually close the sun roofs if you have no power using the z shaped allen key in the tool pouch

other than that its a waste of space

Yeah same deal here love to see this in English but funky help me out with a copy in mixed jap n eng which gives me a little better idea as a picture tells a 1000 words and going to build a computer on win98n 2k to run the programs

You may as well put your self though a jap course as I don't see this happening we need least 60 more stagea lovers to join or you could hit up the UK and US Stagea clubs for more hits... hint hint

Are there clubs in the US? Do they have to convert to LHD?

Don't know if there a club in the US I only know I have seen 2 different video clip of C34 RHD cars driven around the street in the US some where

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
