In the garage

No signal under the car? No problem.

Add it to your home screen from Safari or Chrome and it opens like an app. The whole manual stays on your phone, so it works in a basement garage or at the track. No app store needed, on iPhone or Android.

The app's home screen: the Torque HQ wordmark, 398 specs, units set to Imperial, the search box and its sections, from General Info to Fuel.

Where the numbers come from

Every number says where it's from

Each card carries a badge, so you always know if a value came from the manual, from the bench or from a kit maker.

FSM ✓

Transcribed from the Nissan factory service manual page cited on the card. 2003 350Z, revised April 2004.

BENCH SPEC

Tested on the bench and labelled that way. Never mixed in with the manual's numbers.

ARP KIT · JWT SPEC

From the kit maker's own instructions, for those parts only, in the manual's order.

Torque applies when tightening. Loosening has no torque spec, only the order. Always check a spec matches your model year.
