To set the timing on a 1996 Nissan Quest, first, ensure the engine is at TDC (top dead center) on the compression stroke for cylinder number one. Next, locate the timing marks on the crankshaft pulley and the timing cover, aligning them as specified in the service manual. If necessary, loosen the distributor hold-down bolt and rotate the distributor until the timing mark aligns with the specified degree on the timing scale. Finally, tighten the distributor bolt and recheck the timing to ensure it stays in place.

No you cannot set the timing it is controlled by the ECM.
Yes it is
Never mind, I got my answer.
To set the timing on a 1996 Nissan 200SX using a timing light, first, ensure the engine is at operating temperature and the ignition timing connector is shorted (usually located near the ECU). With the engine running, point the timing light at the crankshaft pulley to see the timing marks. Adjust the distributor by loosening its bolts and rotating it until the timing mark aligns with the specified degree on the timing scale. Finally, re-tighten the distributor bolts and disconnect the timing connector.
That requires an OBDII engine scanner to set the timing because it is computor controled.
there is no ignition timing adjustment it is computer controlled. gm Jim
