    A fellow interstate was selling a '95 model Z pretty cheap some months back and interestingly his original purchase documents supplied by the Nissan dealer appeared to include the mythical Workshop Manual Supplement lll. He didn't want to sell it separately & couldn't be bothered taking pics of it to give the publication date, etc...

    Hoping to get correct airbag diagnostic info for later models. Supplement ll (Dec. '93) only covers earlier airbags where the controller module was mounted forward of the gearshift. 1995 on, the system was somewhat changed...
    Surely Nissan would have produced an English Supplement lll since AuSpecs were still coming in through 1996. If anyone happens to have one, would be very happy to pay good money for it ;) or any info would be appreciated, thanks.

    Have you tried asking Nissan for it Toby ? surely they can shed some light on it.

    Thanks Steve, I'll try my luck getting someone helpful on the phone at a local dealership - last time I inquired about parts with a VIN the guy more or less made out Nissan never made a "300zx"!...
    With the US, UK and Australia all dropping the Z32 about '96 (and selling so few of them in the lead-up to dropping them), I doubt many Supplement lll's were printed and of course, anything after that would have only been printed in Japanese.

    Have you looked at the available 96 workshop manuals online ?

    Thanks Brisz, yes, it covers the LHD models... the Jspec & Aussie Z's got a different set up to the US models. All airbags started out with the control & firing modules mounted separate to the steering wheel. Then Jspec & Aussie Z's in the later models got a more all-in-one design which there seems to be no updates covering. Supplement lll (if it genuinely exists) will cover it
