Dicky Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Anyone know what's happened to the workshop manual we all knew and loved? I have a link on my iPad which I've used many, many times before. Touching the link used to take me to an Index page, then I would tap on the section I wanted, engine, interior etc and I'd get all the instructions, pictures and circuit diagrams I needed. Now the link takes me to the Index page but when I select any of the sections I'm taken to "NICOclub.com" What's Happened ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexx Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 NICO hosted it free of charge. They also had a vast array of Z32 Tech/How to, as well as 100's of techs for other models. They all disappeared around 6 months ago. I didn't look into it, but I suspect that you are now required to be a signed up (and pay up IIRC) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexx Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Scratch the above. Updated link here: http://www.nicoclub....ce-manuals.html Only thing is the Hotlinking isn't working, so you will have to hunt using the Index and then the individual directory files. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d95gas Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 I can add the manual to my dropbox if anyone wants to download it, probably around 180mb to download 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dicky Posted August 11, 2016 Author Share Posted August 11, 2016 I can add the manual to my dropbox if anyone wants to download it, probably around 180mb to download That sounds like an idea, thanks. BUT...I'm getting old so what is your Drop Box? I've tried getting to the manuals on the Nico club forum but without success, looks like you may have to register, although I've not found out how just yet. You may then have to pay to get a copy.

Dicky Posted August 11, 2016 Author Share Posted August 11, 2016 Is it possible this forum could get hold of a copy of the workshop manual for members to refer you?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d95gas Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 I could possibly get my son in law to publish it to one of his sites on the backend, then it would just be a link to the manual and you could browse online. Can have a word with him tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I posted the link to the manuals up there ^^^^ I can access them from 3 separate laptops and my phone (just tested). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can have a word with him tonight I'm afraid to admit that almost everyone is younger than me these days, ho hum. You loose so much day to day info when you retire from work, so all this technology and techno speak is beginning to leave me behind. That said if there's some way I can get a copy onto my iPad that would be great. I hadn't realised the original manual I've been using all these years was located on another site, I thought it had been available on this forum. Don't know what the copyright issues might be but it would be very nice if this forum was able to make a copy available, cos I'm sure lots of members were using the last one.
