I am trying to find the actual passenger list of the Anazi left London Oct 1874 arrived in Auckland Feb 1875. I was able to find it in PapersPast with passenger names but would like to find real thing if possible. It is not in Familysearch.org either. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Might enquiring directly with Archives New Zealand be the best bet?

Also Auckland Libraries hold a lot of microfilms of passenger lists - at the Research Centre upstairs.
You could try their website or ring them. (Possibly other main centre libraries if you're not in Auckland).
Also found this page http://www.aucklandcity.govt.nz/dbtw-wpd/passengers/passenger.html
Seems to be the ship you're after. Doesn't tell you if they have the film however.
There used to be a fantastic resource at http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~nzbound/lists.htm
where there was a mine of information built up over a long period of time, which ancestry in their wisdom seem to have taken off. Just added it in case it ever comes back again.

In a joint project between Archives New Zealand and FamilySearch of Utah, all the passenger lists held at Archives New Zealand have been digitised and are available through FamilySearch.

Indexing is now complete.
