Hi,

Just wondering if anyone else paid for a translated manual from these guys http://jpnz.co.nz/and are still waiting for it to arrive also.

I was ok with the week late thing but its now almost 3.5 weeks and im starting to think Ive been scammed, especially since they have not returned any of my emails.

Thanks in advance

I've only ever used the USDM G37 service manual and then there's the manual on this forum for operations. Take a look at the middle of the stickies of this forum list.

Best of all, they're free.

Yeh the downloaded version was my last resort, I guess I wanted the manual in the book form so it would sit nicely in my glovebox..as well as looking more official.

Also the 75 AUS i spent on it was not a donation to http://jpnz.co.nz/

The gloveboxes are small enough without these manuals in them. Not sure who you want to look official to though. I've never admired anyone's stock vehicle partly due to their manuals. :)

Downloading should've been your first resort as you'll get all the information you need from them anyway. Honestly, aside from maybe finding things quicker, there's not much benefit to having the book. Grab the PDFs, print what you need when you need it and if your filthy hands mess up the pages, you can always print another.

I know I'm rubbing salt in the wound here but unless someone else here has bothered to shell out any money for manuals, you'll find that the free approach has worked very well for most, if not all, of us.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.

      BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
