Thanks for posting up the PDFs.. Really pleased to get hold of a couple of them.

In a fit of insanity this evening, I've tidied up the S13 180sx PDF. I now have a new version that:

- Is searchable. It's no longer just images, thanks to a demo version of some awesome OCR software (www.irislink.com). If the OCR has failed, the original images are still displayed on screen, so no critical values will have changed (e.g. turning 3mm to 8mm).
- Removed four hundred blank pages. Don't think I lost any real pages in the process. Let me know if I did. For me, the original PDF does things like going FA-12, blank, blank, blank, FA-16 (original PDF pages 509-513).
- Sections put into alphabetical order, leaving the general information section at the start.
- The pages are now in numerical order.
- Bookmarks for the start of each section.
- Landscape pages oriented correctly, so you don't have to turn your monitor on its side to read them.
- Saved to be compatible with Acrobat version 5.0 or later.
- Final version significantly smaller than original.

I tried adding it to the SilviaNSW BT tracker, but it told me I wasn't authorised (no surprise there). Can someone give me the details for adding a new torrent? Alternatively, I can put it on my server, and whoever makes the torrents can directly download it from me first.

The SilviaNSW BitTorrent Tracker is now disabled, thanks to all those that seeded after downloading, it helped out a lot.

I've thrown the manuals and stuff up on my server.. If it comes back, and if you can, download them via bittorrent.. Otherwise, go here:

http://vacated.net/carstuff/

I only have the manual for the 180SX, some of the other manuals (like the GReddy boost controller), and a few other Nissan/180sx related PDFs I've found.

If someone else has copies of the other manuals, PM me with a location, I'll download it, then put it up on my server with the rest.

Steve.

Its not your computer that's at fault. The "original" PDF (s13_manual.pdf) has blank pages in it.. it'll go 3,4,5,blank,blank,blank,9,10,11...

The "tidied" PDF I did (S13 180sx Manual.pdf) threw out all the blank pages (about 300 of 'em!), as well as being searchable, having the pages in order, and bookmarks for the start of each section.

I'd like to get my hands on the S14(a) manual, is this going to work ever?

And would it be the same one as they use in Nissan to search for the part number you want?

How do I get it? :confused:
