Where To Take A R33 For Changing Timing Belt?


Recommended Posts

guys,

just got the r33 gts-t.

i want to get the timing belt changed for a peace of mind...

i live close to the city in melb. Any good workshops that are reliable(that do not cost a bomb too)? Any quotes? i will get the belt from Nissan itself and pay for the labour :D

thanks,guys!

apparently the belt is the cheapest part...with labor at like $400-$450 from what ive heard

$400-450 + the belt is a rip off. Most places will do it for $350 including a genuine Nissan belt.

Give Ice Performance a call (just thought I'd beat everyone to saying that! :D )

Why pay performance shop prices to do basic servicing?

those prices are outragious.  rb25's are pretty simple to work on

don't go to ice,  just take it to any mechanic.

I was just throwing the customary "Go to Ice" comment that always seems to pop up.

When I spoke to them, they quoted me the same as JSV and another place in Mitcham.

Shop around a bit, like they said, its not the most complex engine to work on.

I got genuine belt done for under $200 (including belt)

at racing project in Mitcham, (Nelson).

98740066

quick and reliable

Hey Ben

I called that place, they said it was $350 or less if i provide the belt?? Bit strange.

    • See, that button sounds like perfection Duncan! My eyes really don't like light shining at them from a dash when I'm driving. Being part red colourblind, I've found for most cars that I can change colours on, I set everything to red, so my eyes see the elast amount of colour! I miss normal gauges in cars
    • bro, knowing the Japanese in  the 90's, i wouldn't be surprised if they shared components across their model lineup.
    • Maaaan so many "little" things  i rly hope my old RB20 would be "ok" and not too bad. I try to learn what and what not do i need. I look at crossmember at it looks different...even parts numbers are different. Wiring and all that i rly do not know...yeah someone mentioned the speedo thing. On that yoke clip. I rly do not know what can and cant be done "custom" so that is why iam asking to know and not be suprised 馃檪  I know what it looks like  
    • Oh, there's also the gearbox crossmember which will probably be different between the small box and the big box, and the wiring loom will probably need to be modified, because the plugs for the switches etc, will probably be different. And I think the speedo on the small box R34s is from somwhere stupid, like the diff, possibly, so you'd need to work out what needs to be done about that (assuming it is different). I think the thing you need to realise is that the front end of that yoke is a large hollow tube with splines on the inside that mates with the splines on the box's output shaft. It is a dedicated thing - not available "aftermarket". They were made to suit that box, by the car's OEM.
