Insert - Nistune, Injectors, AFM, Fuel Pump.

Keen to feel what difference this stuff makes

Made a real difference in mine

I understand people like to do their own Service - fair enough. But I'm sure there are others who prefer to get it done in a shop ;)

I'm going to do my first 5k service in a shop and maybe every 6 months (Twice a year), make sure everything is all sweet and good to go and after that I'll start doing it myself, and by myself I mean with Rob's help :D

Any/all shops can do the basic service

Oil, Oil filter, fuel filter, air filter, spark plugs, coolant, brake fluid,

Then the checks - braking, suspension, tyres and pressure, lights, blinkers, wiper blades and HORN!

When you end up doing it yourself - keep records and reciepts. (Kms and consumable). This is just for when you sell it.

Oh and wash it more often dude. You didn't get it detailed to let it go again.

Major service every 100k kms - for you I'd get this one done at a Skyline specific shop.

    • Last year I got a set of MCA street coilovers for my turbo Forester after my son hitting a concrete gutter/wall on a small bridge causing the whole drivers side suspension to get bent because the rain just made the car slide out I love them, I think they were $2400. even had a hiccup of have the wrong hub configuration (my fault) so got onto MCA and they sent the correct shock ends overnight parts from QLD, for free!  I was very impressed with their customer service and quality of the product  
    • They've had some weird failures on their brake actuators. One of them was because they added some kind of lubricant to the factory fill brake fluid that aftermarket brake fluid didn't have so it would affect the seals. Another was just mysterious, probably internal corrosion or something eating away at Prius brake actuators. Parts alone for those are a few thousand USD so not a cheap fix.

    • KYBs are typically twin tube, putting them in the lower tier of desireability. Do you just want to replace worn out ones for the lowest cost? I mean, you wouldn't just replace one end of a car, if the rears are a similar age to the fronts, then they are probably nowhere near what they should be, and likely won't be great against brand new fronts. So, to spend ~$800 on 2nd tier dampers, when you could get a decent set of MCA coilovers for <$4k.....? As to the strut tops. 1st up, the Sparesbox site specifically tells you that they are not correct for an R33. Beyond that, why do you think you need them?
    • That's not very Toyota of the Toyota!
