Hey guys looking at getting my timing belt changed gunna get a Nissan kit with waterpump idlers all that and just wondering if anyone can recommend a mechanic / workshop to do the work, Cheap / Reasonable. Been told its about a two hour job for a workshop? that sound right?

At very low revs pretty much 800 to 1100RPM motor sounds a little noisy kinf of a feint knock around the front, pretty sure it hasn't had a belt done and its at 130000ks so assuming its this, don't think its a lifter

Cheers Lee.

Hi Lee D I Y ,save your self some money,Learn more about your car,

Put few BEERS & BBQ on & i bet your place with have a Crowd lol.

I guess the Other Stagea Owners will give you any help you need as many have done this before,

& most love to tinker,

i could probably help you out

my mate has done a few now and he reckons that he is pretty good at it

with that kit tho, check that it will fit a neo because we have a slightly different water pump

just checked tho and they have told someone that it will fit

shipping doesn't seem too bad either, looks like about $250 all up which is very good (looking at about $500 locally)

Yes Lee it is pretty simple to do. Only special tools needed are a 24mm socket and a puller to get the HB off.

There is a VERY GOOD DIY by Sydney kid. I have used it to do mine and a few Sils.

Perhaps a barbie day and some of us could come around.

They are using NSK bearings too, dont think thats OEM should be cheaper than Nissan? think ill grab the kit off ebay "seems" to all be Genuine Nissan, probably do it next weekend with a mate if Aus post rocks up, looks a lot easier than doing the SR20 chain too :)

Funny i'm in love with the Stag, have a Heavily modded 180 in the garage pretty much built it nut and bolt had it a few years and probably driven it 4000ks rarely drive it, tempted to flick it and mod the Stag instead I must be getting old hahaha practicality with performance is more appealing these days.

Cheers for the offers and advise boys

Here she is anyway, stock as a rock, 130000ks. Planing some small mods 18s or 19s, Apexi power intake, 3" Front pipe and high flow cat, wouldn't mind an exhaust but love how quiet these things are want the 3" performance and economy with minimal noise, basic turbo or highflow only because the stocker is squeeling on boost. That's it for now see how things go.
