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

    • Essentially, yes. Although I wouldn't put the AFM on the crossover pipe. I'd want to put it into what amounts to the correct size tube, which is more easily done in the intercooler pipework. I bought a mount tube for card stile AFM that replaces the stock AFM - although being a cheap AliExpress knockoff, it had not flange and I had to make and weld my own. But it is the same length and diameter as the stock RB AFM, goes on my airbox, etc etc. I don't have a sick enough rig to warrant anything different, and the swap will take 5 minutes (when I finally get around to it and the injectors & the dyno tune).
    • So to summarise, the best thing to do is to move recirc to between turbo and IC, and maf on the crossover pipe. Meaning I'd need a recirc flange, drill a hole in the piping on turbo outlet area. And drill hole on crossover to fit/weld maf sensor? Either that or put the MAF on the turbo inlet right?  Is an aftermarket recirc/blowoff valve recommended? Do currently have family in Japan so could probably bring something back with maybe a cheeky lil SuperAutobacs run?
    • Yep, so far most have said that it looks like corrosion on the wall from piston not moving. Which then has probably damaged the oil rings and caused those vertical marks. The longest the engine was still after the rebuild, was the winter of 2018 - 2019, plus the boat trip to Japan. When I shipped the car, it had normal gas in the tank but before that winter pause, it had E85 in tank.  In any case, even if either one of those was the cause, it happened close to 6 years ago and the car has been driven something like 30 000kms after the fact. Again, apart from the plugs and the dip stick, there is nothing in the way the car runs that would indicate what has been going on in the engine. I am going to consult a shop and ask their opinion, what would be the best approach. I do have some access to a garage I could use to diagnose further myself, but time is very restrictive. Might end up buying another engine that could be used while this one is being remedied. Without pulling the head, it will be impossible to find out if it needs another bore, but here's to hoping a hone would suffice.  Goddamnit, I would really have preferred this not happening.  
    • Boot is going to be replaced eventually. I just wire brushed what I could and rust converted. Then painted in rust kill primer. the spoiler also got repainted and plugs replaced on the ends. The under side of the bonnet is going to be black also, currently white. But red on the top side, same colour code as the silo to begin.
    • Hi guys, has anyone either purchased or built themselves a rotisserie for their car before? I can only just justify the need for one hence why I should just make one but at the same time, if I make one I can kiss another 4 weeks of potentially productive car working time goodbye because I'm building a bloody rotisserie....  I mainly want it for the application of the body deadener.  Cleaning the old stuff off, priming and then colour over the deadener doesn't worry me, it's just the application using the Schutz Gun that I feel would achieve a significantly better finish painting it side on and keeping the Schutz Gun upright.  I don't think they would work well on the side let alone almost upside down for some areas.  If the product I use (Terosun, etc) could work through a HVLP ok then it might be ok to apply without the rotisserie.   I can get one of these style ones for about $1200 which is pretty good value-     I reckon if I made one it would cost around $500 but it's more the time that it would take is more of a killer than the cost.  They look to hold their value pretty well second hand so I could always sell it after using it and realistically only lose $200-$300 at worst.  Or keep it and buy another project when this one finally sees the light of day... Anyone selling one...? Cheers!
