I found a few other threads but they werent very thourough, i just want to compile a complete list of what should be done, so far i can think of;

Water pump

timing belt

tension idler

spark plugs

fluid flush

oils

do other things generally get done or do you need them such as;

fuel filter

timing

seals

or are these the type of things you only fix when they're broken ?

help or input is much appreciated :blink:

Im also coming upto 100k and was about to start looking around for a list of things so this will be a big help for me :blink:

So far ive got all of the fluids, coolant, spark plugs, oil filter, still trying to find the part no for a fuel filter.

Would it be a good time to do break fluid? or is it not really needed

Yeah im up for the 100k service very soon also..

Will be doing everything listed in this thread and then some, since im prepping my car for track (turbs, brakes & weight) I will changing most of the gasket's, new pads + lines and brake fluid, cleaning out cooler.

Basically doing everything i possibly can.

^^^ On top of these items, I'd at least check the fuel filter & clean it out. It's situated in the fuel tank via a stalk on my car. Just Jap and others have a few quite often.

For race tracks, it's a good idea to check minimum width and condition of brake rotors. When at a minimum and with heavy braking, they can heat up all of a sudden (which is a bit less of a problem when it's for road use only). Brake fluids are worth changing especially if the car is left standing for periods without use, since they can absorb moisture from the air at low temps.

Check bushes, drive shaft boots too.

Cheers, T

100,000 K's, it's one of the big ones.

So change,

Oil

Oil filter

Air filter / Clean pods

Fuel filter

Battery (If you think is getting old)

Radiator Coolent Flush

Brake pads / Machine Disks (If worn)

Timing Belts / Fan Belts

Spark Plugs

Check all your tyres (Change if worn)

Gear Box oil (If had not been done)

Check under the car / drivetrain

And do the genaral service look over.

Thats mostly what I can think of.

I'm also coming up to my 100,000kms service.

Have been told timing belt, tensioner, tensioner bearing, water pump, coolant flush and at another place some other things too.

Any mechanics out there who feel like throwing a quote with parts and labour included would be absolute legends.

God like in fact :D

Changing the timing belt would probley cost $300 $400 tops. Give or take (Approx)

If you do it yourself, make sure you put the belt on correctly and must be aligned perfect. Other wise you can alter the timing and your car will be out of wack = loss of power and car runs shit.

I was not there to see him change it, otherwise I could tell you what to do.

No need to change your cam gears. Only do that it you want to race the car and/or adjust the angles of the cams open and closing.

for those of you who are saying should the fuel filter be changed at the 100k service.... well i hope you change it atleast every 20k.

some other things to consider...

Engine oil

Oil filter

Diff oil

G/box oil

Wheel bearings

Radiator coolant

Water pump

Thermostat

Air filter

Timing belt

Spark plugs

Brake fluid

Clutch fluid

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
