Bubba mentioned towing instructions from the stagea manual in another thread 'duncans torque split........', OP it might be worth giving him a pm!

"The are plenty of warnings in the manual about how to tow and what not to do.. but absolutely no warnings in regards to the 2WD mode.."

That was for the car itself being towed..

This is like searching for the Holy Grail.

:yes:

Damn it..

The only thing I can think of now is tryng to call a japanise nissan work shop that is listed as english speaking on Nissan japans website..

I would still be super greatful if everybody that has a ownersmanual, workshop manuals or any documentation whatsoever about the car could lookup if ther is anything about towing weigts in them. The ones who finds it findes the holy Grail.. ha ha I will pay for usefull information.

ok in my owners manual it states that do not tow another vehicle that is heavier than yours.id take that as it can tow equal weight .page 197 in my manual.i dont know if this helps

My suggestion is keep the towed weight under the towing vehicle weight. Given the build of a Stagea I wouldn't want to tow too much with it.

That caravan pic from the UK is a joke, If a strong wind hit that van it'd pull the Stagea straight off the road.

I've seen a Stagea towing an R33. Got some wicked sway happening, dragged the arse of the Stagea all over the place.

That's just my opinion, but be sure to put some serious thought in to it. Because it'll be too late when it's all twisted :)

Thanks Bubba and Mike for your input and Pm:s.. It is greatly appriciated and i hope I can use it..

I am not looking for any anormus towing weights.. I just want it to tow my trailer witch is rated to 1500kg total. 1300kg is fine for me too. My rs260 is 1720kg so it is not unreasoanble I think.. But I need to prove that the Stageas body and chassie can handle it dispite the wich weight the towbar is rated to. I have ordered the 256 pages owners manual and put my name in for the workshop manual. I hope it will be available soon.

I forgot to call the workshop in japan today but will try tomorrow.

    • It's actually really good advice. And I do try to do it. I actually have 2x 3KG dumbbells that sit right beside where I sit. And I look at them a lot. Use them a little. But I'm trying to do more with it. At the moment I'm going through a heap of weight loss too which will help. I cracked into the 85kg mark this week. My weight used to have me sit consistently between 93 to 95KG! That definitely doesn't help. I've also got POTS, which flared up after I got slapped with COVID a few weeks back, and POTS really smashes fatigue and stuff into you, and has a thing even called "excercise fatigue". Basically even the minorest "excercise" (walking from the garage to the house) causes fatigue! And one of the treatments (Other than a med I'm on) is also... Excercise... Ha ha ha So it's why I'm trying to play the game of "might as well" and trying to push through things. For ADHD specifically, the general recommendation is "excercise". When you dig deep into it though, while any excercise is good, the best type is "explosive" excercise. So training for a sport like squash, tennis, even soccer. Things where you need to get the whole body able to "explode" into a different direction change. They've found with explosive sports, (I can't think of the proper term they have for it) that it actually makes the brain grow and become bigger in specific areas. The areas where ADHD causes those parts of the brain to be smaller than normal! But definitely, trying to push myself, and break those bounds mate, and get healthier!
    • Be more active mate.. , not taking the piss ❤️, your long term health will love you for it I would think something like a kettle bell or 2 laying around in areas you go past during the day would be awesome for ADHD.... "Oh look, a kettlebell", and exercise helps your brain health as well My mates son was a bit of a problem child, diagnosed wirh ADHD, and some other things that had his brain occasionally doing loops, until we got him into a training program, the difference after he started training was amazing, he had more focus, and his fitness levels exploded, it is like he is a totally different kid to be around Brain chemistry something something Stay fit stay strong mate
    • I had never actually looked into it, but aren't onboard compressors a thing in trucks?
    • Read the ECU for fault codes or have someone else do it. A faulty coolant temperature sender is usually listed in ECUs. If the sensor itself is not busted it can also be a bad ground connection. Or in a really unlucky case, damaged wiring.
    • Can't be a Futjitsubo as those are made with a flex piece and Reimax is smaller in pipe diameter. If anything it is closest to a Mines pipe, but evidently it is not an actual Mines pipe.   Classic word humor
