i dont know how good chiltons or anything else (just because i havent been able to find them at any of the bookstores or autoparts joint i go to) is but to be safe and sure that you're going to get a good manual i'd get the dealers manual from your local nissan dealer.....i dont know about you but i do know that they have them at courtesy nissan near my place and if they dont have your particular year then i'm sure they can order it

is that $19 US??? hehe i just got my chiltons at walmart and got 10% off cause it was opened.. i didn't care.. gonna get it greasy anyways..

i find the chiltons less informative than the haynes i had for my other cars..

i'll look into the dealer manuel.. if i could afford it that is.. lol

If your gonna do much work on your car at all.  BUY THE FSM.  Will be the best money you will spend.  I saw one on ebay like 3 days ago too.  Should still be there.  They show up occasionally on there.  If not there you have to order from a Dealership, or directly from Dyment Corp.
