I put the Stagea in for a rego check last week. As part of it's service
I asked my mechanic to adjust the headlights, as they were a bit low.
When I went to collect the car, he informed me that when he went to
adjust the headlights, he noted motors on the lights. Sure enough, he
found an adjuster on the dash.

Me, smacks head.

With the HID low beam and new, LED high beam, the mighty Stagea is a joy
to drive both night and day. For a 21 year old car to put a smile on my
face every time I slide behind the wheel. Gotta be happy with that.

Indeed you do. They've made some great cars. GT-R anyone?

Pity the owners are usually complete wankers... like Falcon drivers.

**What manual would that be? It's a Japan-only model. IF I could find a
manual, it would be printed in Kanji.

**And the Stagea. 207kW, 410Nm, single turbo, 2.5L V6, AWD, 51:49 weight
distribution. Handles and goes like a sports car. A bit like a de-tuned
GT-R, but you can stick a lounge suite in the back.

Mind you: This is the desirable (older) model to buy:

https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/nissan/stagea/autech-260rs-badge/

VERY close to a GT-R, but with a station wagon body. Desirability is
reflected in it's price. Not bad for a 23 year old Jap wagon.

Check JP-NZ publications. They sell translated manuals and should have it.

LOL, my MB has a head lamp adjustment on the dash near the headlamp
switch, took me a while to work out what it was for:-)

ROTFL :)

How many "detuned" GT-R's have you driven to be able to tell? :)

That's hideously ugly. Despite that, I'm not seeing what model GT-R it's
supposed to be even *remotely* "close" to. It looks *nothing* like one,
and makes a shit-tonne less power.
