I fail to understand why 'everyone' would want a Japanese manual.... i mean, should just 1 person buy it, and then do a group buy on translating the entire manual?

That way everyone still pays around the $100 mark, and get a Translated copy instead. Mind you it may have taken longer, but I know personally Id NEVER fork out the cash for a foreign languange book which Ive got no time or resources to have translated.

oh well, all the best with it - if someone ever translates it, PM me and Id love to buy a proper copy in the future.

sorry guys, I'm in adelaide atm since last week, and I haven't had access to the interweb till yesterday. Turns out they weren't mailed out, but I've been told they will be shortly.

have you found out if they have been mailed yet?

Sorry andrew they haven't been mailed out... real bad timing as I just left on holidays, and I've been in Adelaide for the last week (as per last post) and in Syd till the 23rd. If anyone wants their money back I'm happy to refund it.

im not worried bout the money, ive just got things that i want to do to my stagea, and it would be much easier with the manuals.

anyways...so your saying that we should definately have them by the end of the month?

Be careful please Alex, slandering of businesses is not tolerated anywhere on the forums.

Although I can understand everyone's frustrations, this has nothing to do with JSpec, it has to do with Funky the postage is his responcability, no matter who he gave it to for postage, he should be the one ultamitly responcable for it. Now he has stated his reasons for nothing happening, and if you do not recieve anything from him or a refund, then I would suggest you all submit a bad trader rating.

Other than that, there is not much else you can do.

All that said I would have to say that people have lives and if Funky is on holidays then there is nothing much he can do until he gets back. If no joy is gained after that, then and only then proceede further.

edited; not getting involved in this one!!

(although if Alex has had delay problems before with Jspec, then his percieved point of view can not be read as slanderous)

I've purchased two cars through J-spec.

One arrived, there were delays all over the place, but thats understandable so no harm done.

The second, well, there must not be many mechanics in Japan as i waited over 6 weeks for an inspection that never happend and in the end demanded the car be resold and a refund given.

In this case, in post #72 Funky said "They were sent middle of last week (using regular post) so it should arrive soon." So that makes me think that the CD's were actually already burnt and ready to go. Hence, the hold up must be with Jspec as he said in post #83 "Might check with the guy that does the postal run (sent with company mail) to see what was done"

Unfortunatly I lack to see why Funky needs to be in Melbourne for them to be sent? They are burnt, packed, addressed and ready to go....according to him. Both Ian and I have also offered to go around there and sort this out.

I know it is frustrating guys, buy yelling and screaming about things isnt going to solve anything is it?

I have PM'd Funky about this, but lets all try to stay civilised and deal with this in an adult manner please!

BTW I am on no ones side, just trying to keep the thread from going ugly, that's all.

    • Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂
    • After drying a few days, time to put her back together 
    • The hot exhaust light will come on not from just the cat being blocked, but it's just a temp sensor, and it's designed to warn you to not do things like park in long grass.   If you've been pushing the motor a bit, it can cause the light to come on.   Second if the cat is rattling, I'd suspect it's not blocked, but instead falling apart inside.   The easiest "fix" until you can get a cat put back in, is to unbolt your one, bash the rest of the insides out, and then bolt it back in.   For a daily driver/street car, I am in agreeance of put a cat in the car. If it were race car I wouldn't care if it were removed.
    • No worries at all 🫡 I think the most satisfying things to make are the little bits that are just impossible to find or they're no longer manufactured. Generally I always try to replace parts with OEM wherever possible. This little project is also great because it'll never see the light of day, but strengthen these brackets so it's not just relying on the little standard screws in the headlight plastic. As soon as I saw the standard brackets and screws I thought, "well I'm not going to install with just the screws, the plastic tabs will just snap off". It's crazy how expensive everything has become yeah. But I suppose that's supply and demand; granted it's a lot easier to get brand new genuine parts these days which is fantastic 😊, I don't have to get totally reamed at the local Nissan dealer ha ha We sure are lucky we have all these manufacturers making parts these days, a few really great Australian companies too like Platinum Racing Products and Fit Mint Automotive, what a time to be alive ❤️ . I've got my eye on the RB26 head by PRP as mine has a very fine hairline crack, so that'll need to be addressed some time in the future. If you have any requests or odd things to make feel free to let me know and I can have a crack at making replacement parts ✌️
