May 13, 200816 yr comment_247252 Be careful,This site is the ONLY one Nissan has authorized to reproduce manuals in any form by way of a copywrite exemption. We already have a DVD in progress(close to through) of all of the printed S30 factory documentation.Will Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/28091-1975-datsun-280z-factory-service-manual-is-now-available/#findComment-247252 Share on other sites More sharing options...
May 15, 200816 yr comment_247470 One suggestion. The quality of the recently added scans, 75 280Z FSM, 73 240Z FSM, 79 280ZX FSM, and the 80 turbo suppliment could be better. You eiter need a resolution adjustment or a better quality scanner. Look at the diference in clarity between those and the one I recently submitted.

May 15, 200816 yr Author comment_247508 These Scans were done in Greyscale and not in B/W. The reason is with the B/W scans the electrical Diagrams and Pictures will start to lose sections. I have my scanner set for Greyscale at 150DPI and then use Abobe Acrobat to scan them. I also Optmize each one to limit the File Size. Otherwise each ZIP will be over a GB in size.

May 15, 200816 yr comment_247539 I also scan mine in greyscale w/Adobe Pro. 6.0 on a cheapie little HP 1315. But, for whatever reason, I don't end up with that 'ghost' of the page behind the one being scanned like those all seem to have.

May 15, 200816 yr comment_247542 Will, What do you mean by "We have a DVD in progress"? Do you mean a FSM on CD of different for each year Z that could be purchased at a reasonable price with Nisson permission?
