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.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
