100k Km Service Sticker

[R3sp3ct]

G'day

My question is about the silver 100000kms service sticker that is on the black belt cover on the front of the engine.

Does this mean it has had the service or needs it?? Im looking to buy an R33 GTST with 71000kms on it and it has the silver sticker. Could this suggest it has more kms then on the clock or do most imports get the 100000kms service upon arrival to Aus??

Any insight would be much appreciated.

Cheers

^ It means the Timing Belt has been change at that amount of K's printed on the Silver Sticker. Usualy its done at 100 000km's

if the sticker has a hand written odo reading on it then a 100k service has been done on it. if it has 100k that is printed then it is a reminder to do it.

to better check if things have been done and wound back check to see if there is any signs of sticker outlines that may suggest the 100k service sticker has been removed previously.

as with all the numerous threads about what to look for in buying a skyline...check wear/condition of interior and engine to match odo reading, do a compression test and all the other usual stuff. check to see if wires have been hacked and so on.

Ok thanks guys,

any other comments about the sticker post 'em up.

Would an NRMA check be good enough to determine whether the car is in order in regards to compression tests and what not??

Thanks

from what i have heard insurance mechs are textbook, a fault is a fault even if its not really a fault.

you could take it to a workshop that works with liners for them to check out.

Water pump is also usually changed and cam seals I think it is.

for timing belt ^^ , on most car's that are belt driven cam gears ( some cars use a chain and dont need replacement like a belt)

anyone know what the factory 100km service includes?

Ive got a sticker with a written km reading on it next to the 100km reminder sticker. Just want to know what has been changed during service

diferent places will do different things.. mainly,

gearbox, engine, diff oil

power steer, brake and clutch fluid flush

wheels bearings

timing belt

radiator hoses

brake pads or rotors

thats some of the things that may be done...

and i have heard alot of japs do the 100,000km service every 50,000. Cause usually u service it say 5000km or 6 months... but a 100,000km service is done say every 100,000km or 6 years.. and they may only get 50,000km on it in that 6 years..... if u ge what i mean
