Most any manual like haynes is good for basic knowledge. For pereformance get the catalogs from MSA and Jackson Racing. And read these forums you can learn a lot.

The Hanes Manual is good, but it can be confusing to us Americans, as it is written by a Brit. There are several (okay, a lot) of parts that have different names on this side of the ocean, and when you know nothing about cars it can be really tough to figure it out. I don't know how many years it was before I figured out a "wing" was a "fender."

That said, if you refer to the US to British translation table in the front of the book, it's the best manual out.

If your thining of taking apart your engine I'd suggest buying the shop manual from Nissan ... or from an independant bookshop that nissan sells them through
