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

    • Hey crew, Failed my WOF cause of a lower control arm, and I've decided to hit both arms, and also the compression rods at the same time(seems they're gonna be the most likely upcoming failure points from some discussions with the lads over on the G35 reddit). I've looking at these form Z1:  https://www.z1motorsports.com/front-suspension/hayaku-automotive/hayaku-g35-front-compression-rod-p-40716.html https://www.z1motorsports.com/front-suspension/hayaku-automotive/hayaku-g35-front-lower-control-arm-p-40674.html I asked Z1 if they'd work as it's the same platform, just RHD vs LHD. I basically got told "Lol dunno". Specifically they aren't aware of any difference but can't guarantee fitment as they haven't done it on a 350GT. So guess I'm asking is if there is any issues with using 2005 G35 coupe suspension parts on a 2005 350GT coupe? Orginally I thought it could be something in the way of the arms that each control arm is designed to be positioned around, but that'd be an engineering nightmare for Nissan needing two different shaped control arms 😅
    • ^ This. The mode door actuator is a common failure, as is the actuator and/or the actual valve for the coolant flow control valve. I also don't know how available the mode door actuator is these days. I've been meaning to look into it and get one from wherever is possible, to keep in the shed for the rainy day when mine eventually fails. Anyway, the advice to you is to search the usual NOS part supply places, or even just go to Nissan and see what they list.
    • Have you got a pic of the actuator? My guess is that unit has failed internally and was flopping around, so the previous engineer who owned it forced it to be fully open to cold air (blocking the heater core path). As far as you can tell, is anything else wrong in the system? Likely you just need a new actuator (not sure how available they are) and then "installation is the reverse of disassembly"
    • I'm happy with the Lsailt unit that I put in, it puts full Android on the top screen so you can run whatever Nav and other Apps you want, while still existing inside the factory functionality like automatic reverse cams, audio input switching, retains factory bluetooth etc. Not cheap and the install was moderate (not simple, not hard) Yours is a V36 not V37 though right?
    • Yeap, all the NC's that I originally looked at that had a hard top were PRHT, which makes the roof line look horrible, hence why I said nope to them My only caveat for another MX5 was it needed to have a hard top, and initially I didn't think you could get a detachable hard top for the NC,  like my NB had Again, a big thanks to Matty for helping me source the detachable hard top for my little girl, they are as rare as hens teeth in Australia, and the few people who have them, keep them Also to Greg, for initially pointing me in the NC direction NC PRHT 🤢🤮 Not mine (I really should take more photos of my car), but a NC with the detachable hard top 😁 To me, the difference in how the detachable hard top roof line looks, and how it actually follows the bodies lines, like they do on NA's and NB's, is chalk and cheese compared to the bulbous looking PRHT
