Hi naga, thanks for the post, it was very informative. My climate control unit lights just stopped working COMPLETELY (both blubs) at the same time so its completely dark. The temp is still working. Do you think that it is the fuse? You mentioned something about the fuse being in the boot. I know of a fuse box in the bonnet, and also under the dash, but is there also one in the boot? Do they control the lights on the console? Thanks heaps

*Update* Had my service done on Thu/Fri last week with Ice. Great prompt response and they fit me in before the end of the week which was awesome. AAAND it only took 1.5 days to do Changed all the fluids, gearbox, diff, coolant, engine Timing belt change Water Pump change And it was just a touch over 1k. Very happy and the car runs better than ever. Now for the brakes

i have first dibs on whatever gadgets u can't afford to have anymore CONGRATS MATE!!! Now for that R34 4 door dorrrifto beast......

Adz, how did your own major service go? any xtra problems?

I'm guessing the sticker is just the timing belt service. wonder what else has been done - unless u have the service log (which almost always doesnt exist)

So the fluids (of a car) are - Brake - Clutch - Transmission - Powersteering - Coolant Did i miss anything?

Adz, how long is your car going to be out of action in the garage for? Did G give u an estimate? And also a quote on the cost? or is it a 'well, we'll see when we get there' type of thing (like usual) Okies, water pump it is. Any suggestion on spark plugs??

Thanks Paul. Great advice. What is involved in a '100k service'? Will tell u how it all goes. I haven't researched it yet (I should) but what are the recommendations for spark plugs?

Hi guys! Man, long time no see for all u guys. I been gone for quite a while. Good to be back tho B) My R33 has finally reached the age of 100,000 kms now and so its time for a major service. I know there is a thread about this major service and I read it, but I was hoping for VICTORIAN experiences with this major service. - What was done (other than timing belt)? - Who did u go with? - What was the cost? - Any other problems that needed addressing during or after? Any posts appreciated. Thanks all!! BTW, this is the list of tasks that the 100,000km service thread mentioned (I'm scared of the bill!!): New Iridium Spark Plugs. Water Pump. Thermostat Cam belt Drive belts. Oil Filter Fuel Filter Check cam and crank seals for leaks usually OK and extra if seals required Check cam belt pullies All electricals, exhaust, suspension. Coolant and hoses. Gear oil 75w- 90 or auto trans service. Engine, gearbox and power steering get Uniglide treatment. Clutch and brake fluid flushed and bleed. Radiator and engine flush. Clean and treat battery terminals. Clean terminals to injector plugs, ignition coils. Compression test. Spray lubricant on throttle linkages and other. Adjust water sprayers and additive used Lubricate door hinges and strikers, bonnet latch, boot hinges, aerial mast. Check and tighten sub frame and suspension and cross member bolts etc. Tyre pressures checked and corrected. Air filter replaced or if performance filters cleaned and re oiled. Check list for our technicians and report given.

Cool, thanks for the info Zahos. I good idea about taking the tyres for a drive first to make sure u are happy wif em - cos i dont live close and it would be a hassle bringing em back.

Ay guys, what do u mean by 'duds'? do the rubber just fly off or something? or is like beefy says that they start vibrating at high speeds?? are they nice guys there? i hate dealing with f**ks

Yeah ironic that the car was for sale as well. Thats gotta sux. gotta be careful with hi-po rwd cars in the wet. just cant drive em like normally in the dry....

Hey mate, sorry to hear about it. Everyone's worst nightmare, even worse without comp. Hope it turns up Have u had a look at the surveillance tapes yet? Looks like the ppl were targeting imports - or Skylines at least. Keep us posted

forgive my ignorance, but is 120 ppl a lot for a track day? how many runs does that mean for each of us?

i used to have some dodgy idling problems with a close to stock car... after putting the pfc in and a good tune, all gawn. it ALWAYS drops to 1k now and stays there, nothing less.

Hey guys, what other brands fit into the small space of the R33? I have a S2 and it still has the original 'pitstop' r33 skyline battery!! doesnt hold charge very well.... and if i put an amp and sub in.... its dead meat

What happened to ur canary for AVC-R? Did u have to take it off before VicRoads pass u? what a pain.

Any pics of it on a car? yet??

Whats the price now? if there are 5 ppl how much? if there are 10 ppl how much? genuine or copy?

RACV inpsections are absolute BS. They did one on a car i bought previously and they didnt even identify any of the problems i had with it straight after i bought it, like slipping clutch and leaking oil. Don't even bother with em dude

So who's gonna be putting "Hasegawa Kitagawa Sigma" stickers on their car now????

Sooo true - i wondered why i ever considered anything else to begin with (other than a GTR)

I have HKS Hypermax coilovers. They dont make any noise at all (except after going to the skidpan and it was squeaking a little over bumps - gone after a while) The only complaint is that they are still uber stiff even on the softest setting The rest is all good tho.
