Mate factory Toyota is the only one to use.

The rest are all crap, especially when stripping down components.

There's a slim chance Toyota will still stock them, but they'll be really expensive.

Always seem to be a few floating around Ebay (expect to pay a lot here too! Worth every penny, though.)

I would have thought the same, but my father recently bought a factory manual for the Toyota 14B and 15B series engines, and yes they got one in for him within a couple of days, and it was only $45. I think he got it from Motorama on southside Brisbane somewhere. Its quite a good book, not perfect, but better than any non-genuine POS I've seen.

I got hold of one of the CLYMER super shop manuals 580 pages
shows pretty much everthing
I'm currently converting a LN46 4spd to a 5spd it actually shows all the relevant parts as these boxs came out of the factory in the states as a 5spd (the L52)
Would have to be one of the best non factory manuals i'vecome accross
