OK depending on how many k's it has done but,it a bit hard to answer

but you should check to see if you timming belt has been changed

there is a stick on the top of the timming case that will say when it was

done last , most od us use someting equal or simmiler to motul 300v comp

10-40 but there is also 4100 turbo light made by motul which is more

gentler on the wallet at about $60 for 5lt where as the 300v is around $140is.

A radiator and coolant flush is ussally a good thing esp. if the car is afresh import

gearbox and diff are good to do as well , but yeah look for a minor one ,

-Oil and filter

-Spark Plugs

-Coolant and flush

-Air filter

and check the conditoin of hoses pipes ect

lubbing of trottle bodie butterfly spring etc.

but yeah most people tend to do the above for a minor

service, hope this helps... :angry:

    • Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!
    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
