370z Factory Service Manual

SoCal 370Z · 03-11-2009, 02:33 PM

Okay, maybe a bit harsh for the genteel members here so revised it should read:

Dear Members,

Our fellow moderator and enthusiast AK370Z has taken it upon himself to purchase—from his own funds—the Factory Service manual. Owed to the cost of said Service Manual is would behoove others who benefit at this forum to perhaps consider a small donation to offset said fee in support of both the forum and AK370Z.

Respectfully,
SoCal 370

AK370Z · 03-11-2009, 02:44 PM

Thank you socal370z. I appreciate your gesture. No donation is needed. I want The370Z.com to be the no. 1 370Z resource. Getting our own service manual is a step forward.

I bought the service manual for our forum. I think it'll be a great asset. I am going to make a thread tonight where you will be able to request info on a specific part/section. I'll basically list the "Table of contents" and from there you will be able to ask what you need.

Thanks.

^ can you post transmission. I'm interested in the syncros rev match and seeing if i can retrofit to my g37. Thanks

modme · 03-11-2009, 02:51 PM

It's probably easier just to post the whole thing. I believe there's around 20 different PDF files.

If AK makes it accessible to premium members only, he'll see a ton of 'donations' I'm sure! And it just so happens that premium membership costs $10.

Damn Semtex, other than your armory, that's a great idea!

I think I agree. That's not a bad idea at all. I think i'll create a "Request" section in the premium members area where premium members will request what info they need and I'll just post it there. I am going to make an official announcement on this later this weekend. Also, if I see a thread in the tech section(or any other section) or a member desperately needs certain tech info in a thread, I'll just post the info. After all, lets not forget, our site is all about helping other fellow Z enthusiasts.

Thanks

No offense to AK or the other admins/mods, but I feel like things like Service Manuals should be open to all as it will only help strengthen the DIY community and the aftermarket support.

To that end I grabbed the entirety of the 2009 370Z service manual and threw it up on Scribd for everyone to use:
2009 370Z Service Manual Folder | Scribd

The money to grab it came out of my own pocket, but I feel it was a worthwhile investment. I hope this won't be an issue, but please let me know if it is!

Nope no issue at all. I only want what's best for our members. You're more than welcome to make a thread in this section http://www.the370z.com/nissan-370z-o...rvice-manuals/ and post this info in a thread titled "2009 370Z Service Manual". Making it available for Premium Members was just an idea and as you can see I didn't announce anything over the weekend because I usually do a lot of brainstorming/reasoning before I make any decision.

Awesome I made the thread over there. Thanks AK!

I'm not offended either, Golex. (I'm not a mod but I was the one who made the suggestion of charging for access.) For the record, I also want what's best for the members. But sometimes we have to balance that with what's best for the forum itself. In other words, if the forum owner doesn't make enough revenue to at least cover the costs of keeping the thing running, then in the long term the forum may not be sustainable (i.e., it'd be discontinued). And that would not be good for anyone! That was the only thing motivating my suggestion.
