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

    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
