What Manual do you use to work on your Z?
What Manual do you use to work on your Z?
I've always enjoyed working on my cars. Before getting the Z a few months ago, I was a big honda guy
and built some pretty quick motors. I'm not a mechanic (currently in dent. school), but I learned everything I needed to know through the Helms shop manual for hondas, which made an amateur feel like a pro. Now the Z is all foreign territory to me, but I would really like to start learning about the motor. Are there any really good shop manuals out there for the Z and where can I get them? What does everyone use?

The only one that's worth a $hit is the factory service manual, downloadable from http://www.nissan-techinfo.com/nissan/

I love these books, they take apart and put together a car while photographing and documenting each step. Anyone mechanically inclined can use this to do a complex task the first time.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haynes_Manuals
Haynes manuals are written by a pair of authors, and take between 20 and 30 man-weeks. A car or motorcycle is bought at the beginning of the project and sold at the end. Although the workshop phase of the project usually lasts for roughly 4 weeks, the vehicle is usually retained until the manual is in print.

I checked Haynes.com and they dont list a 350z manual. I could be wrong but just thought id let you know.

If you are really good at googling you might be able to find a copy. But it's not like most people with websites have $$$$$$ to blow by letting strangers download gigabytes of files every month.
