The '''Factory Service Manual''' is a complete service guide, by Nissan. Who better to tell you how to work on your Z than Nissan themselves?
==Online Manual==
This high quality copy of the Factory Service Manual utilizes Adobe OCR (Optical Character Recognition) to make the entire document searchable using the PDF viewer of your choice (I'm partial to [http://blog.kowalczyk.info/software/sumatrapdf/free-pdf-reader.html Sumatra PDF]). A huge thanks to JBender for providing this scan!

==Printed Copies==
If you're a bit old fashioned (and there's nothing wrong with that), you can pick up a printed paper copy of the factory service manual. Expect to pay anywhere from $40 to $120, depending on the condition. 
==Mistakes==
The service manual has a few mistakes scattered throughout. Most are minute, but at least one (noted below) is critical. 

* EM-60: Connecting rod bearing nut. Old prints listed 43-48 ft-lbs, which is too tight. Correct torque procedure is as follows.
*# Tighten to 10-12 ft-lbs.
*# Turn nuts 60 to 65 degrees clockwise or, if an angle wrench is not available, tighten nuts to 28-33 ft-lbs.
