Hey Guys just needed some advise, where do you get your skylines serviced my skyline has nearly reached 60,000kms

issues im currently having

* Smell of petrol when i start or turn off the car

* The clutch making a squeaky noise

* My Right back suspension was leaking oil

im not sure what is included in a 60,000 kms service but if i mention the above is that included in the inspection they do or will i have to pay extra?

i was thinking either

CRD

advan

UAS

Any Feed back would be great

Thanks boys!

i have never had work done at CRD or Advan but they both are pretty switched on workshops from what i've seen. I have had tuning and some other bits done at UAS and was very happy. John will possibly give you a discount if you tell him the beer baron said to hook you up!

Nathan at grey imports is very good, i've had a fair bit of jobs done there on my soarer, and the GTR was complied there. Not really western sydney though (neither is UAS i guess).

How far west are we talking? With the list, we're not talking out Livo way.

My car gets serviced at Pro Concept in West Ryde. Joshua knows his stuff, has a good attention to detail, and doesn't charge and arm and a leg.

Blacktown area, i was having doubts about the above coz they are pretty expensive i wonder if my local mechanic would be able to do the job!

Roccos Performance is good, never had a problem with them, excellent customer service and don't charge an arm and a leg,

these guys are based in Michinbury so its not far at all from blacktown.

check out their site.

cheers, thats only 5 mins drive for me i didnt know we had a place like that in our area. website doesnt work but will give them a call

Hey guys, also got a questions about servicing ( sorry for jacking the thread )

Since skyline is a imported vehicle does it come with a logbook, if not then do people just do a service on whats logically suppose to be done?

Also when the service is done, is there some kind of way to show that the workshop has serviced the car?

New owner of a skyline and my first car so yea :S

Thanks

    • Update time!  The JZX110 had some maintenance needing to be done, so a lot of the seals with replaced to fix some oil leaks. Also used this opportunity to whack on a front mount that I'd bought some time ago.  I also finally got the rear lip painted and fitted.  I then got the exhaust done. It's just a catback for now. Custom made 3" stainless with a turn down. I could have a tip coming out, but it will require cutting the rear lip and possibly the bumper itself. So far I do like and it's made the car a little more zippy.  Close out with some nice pictures of the cars and a sneak peek of what's next. 
    • Once you learn it all, you find you do the job once. But this is the best way to learn, as you won't forget the lessons
    • Edit: It's now known as "R Performance" and is still in operation.
    • This lady loved her FD for 25 years!  https://www.topspeed.com/80-year-old-woman-donates-fd-rx-7-mazda/ My brother in law. He's nice enough to let me drive it whenever. He'll likely not see this, but I'll try: @r-is-for-fun got any pics?
    • Just something I found searching for more info on Emotion R, apparently the ECR33 Skyline GTS25t was either originally black, or there were two of them, the black one being the original demo car, then building a white one which was part of the 1997-onwards (to at least 2008!) Cockpit Tatebayashi Tokyo Auto Salon booth demo cars. It appears that Emotion R closed down in 2008 and was declared bankrupt in 2010: http://bank-db.com/hasan/208365. Scan of a magazine with the black R33 from 1996: Wayback machine archived page from May, 2000: https://web.archive.org/web/20000529061027/http://www.emotion-r.co.jp/skyline.html Option magazine with a few photos from the Cockpit Tatebayashi booth at the Auto Salon from various years: 2002: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=154&image_id=3507 2003: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=137&image_id=3033 2005: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=116&image_id=1831 In 2008 Cusco website mentions that the Cockpit Tatebayashi ECR33 was displayed at that year's Tokyo Auto Salon: https://www.cusco.co.jp/event/2008/12/post_735.html As of 2021 it appears that the ECR33 demo car ended up being exported to Florida, USA: https://rmcmiami.com/inventory/1996-nissan-skyline-r33-cockpit-tatebayashi-demo-car-big-te06-turbo-endless-brakes-lsd-450hp/ And finally here's Google streetview of the Emorion R garage in 2023 which is amazingly not only still there, but the showroom is still full of various parts in stock and funishings, etc.: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ttyEAZdZLyzermyT9 Apologies for nerding out a bit. I used to love doing this 20 years ago on SAU and got a bit nostalgic for a moment... 😅
