hey guys got a '93 R32 GTS4 and going to be getting my 100,000km service done soon.

now i have all my oils and oil filter (diff's oils, engine, gaer box)

also im getting my front drive shaft seals replaced as they are worn ( i have already bought these seals from nissan) and my mech will be supplying the timing belt and all that stuff. Now he quoted me 430 for it but i also need new spark plugs and my car does need a lil tune so he said sparks will cost around another hundred and when they put new sparks in they also to a small dyno tune which costs 220 or something but. So all up he said it will be round $800.

Does this sound like a reasonable price for what im getting done???

cheers vinnie

Price sounds ok. Do as many things as you can afford, do it once and you can forget it for another 100k. There's also air filter, clutch fluid flush, brake fluid flush, power steering flush, replace water pump, replace belts. Also what gtstee said is important too.

Those things are a good idea if you are keen.

A dyno tune-up is a good idea if the car is sluggish. Had my timing tweaked on a dyno recently and made a big difference.

cheers for that guys

yeah i can to a coolant flush me self

and with that dyno tune he said they do an afm clean and throttle body and some other stuff too

i'm goin to get new brake pads soonish so i guss i'll do the brake and power steering fluid then

cheers

any more info would be great

i paid....... 700??? i think 700

for every single fluid flushed and replaced, timing belt, all other belts, and water pump and a few other bits n bobs

bear in mind, different state different mechanic

your price sounds fine but i owuld replace waterpump while you're there,

it's supposed to get done at 120xxx kms but save yourself the extra payment of labour this way...

..AND take into consideration that the car is like a billion years old now, so it's about time you replaced the pump too

lol also forgot to mention a new pump was put on 12,000kms ago so its fairly newish

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
