Hi Alex,

I have had an R34 GTt sedan, auto, for several years. Great car.

For your car, I would suggest a major service, unless it came with a good service history. Included in that service should be the following;

1. Engine oil and filter change. I use synthetic.

2. Transmision fluid change. I use Nulon synthetic.

3. Check air filter. Mine had an aftermarket foam filter which was not oiled and was allowing some dust to pass through.

4. Change power steering fluid. Use the synthetic automatic transmission fluid.

5. Change brake fluid.

6. Change timing belt.. I changed mine at about 55,000 klms. It was loose and had surface cracks (over ten years old).

I would suggest changing at 100,000 klms or 5 years, whichever comes first.

If your car is the first series, the oil and air filters are the same as a VL Commodore.

Hope this is of some help.

Geoff.

Thanx for the reply mate, just chaned my oil (Royal purple fully synthetic 10W-40), bout HKS super hybrid air filter, regarding major service, just had it done before she came into my hands in the land of the rising sun (has metallic sticker on air box stating at which K's she had it done), bought it off Global vehicles in Fawkner who did a minor service on it, oil fluids etc., all the belts still have writing on them and look new so I hope for now I'm set lol...anything else u can think of?
