I think I've got it down to two places I'll be calling to get my 100,000Km service done... ...all depending on time off the road and time I can get off work because I use my car for work...

But I'd like to know who people recommend for such a big service... ...and what needs to be closely looked at...

I might still go to my regular guy... ...but they mostly do holdens and fords and there are four other cars from my family that go there as well as about 7 others from the neighbors... ...So they do have me covered or basic services... ...and I'm sure they could do it too... ...But I was just thinking that there are more Nissan orientated workshops out there that would have a better idea of what to look for on a big service...

Thanks in advanced for your suggestions...

depends on who you ask and what workshop

expect around $1100 for the whole thing

timing belt & tensioner bolts and bits

100,000 service

water pump

all fluids etc so its a big job

the timing belt supplied and fitted is approx $450 ish ballpark (lots of labour)

Here is what I can think of,

Oil

Oil filter

Air filter / Clean pods

Fuel filter

Battery (If you think is getting old)

Radiator Coolent Flush

Brake pads / Machine Disks (If worn)

Timing Belts / Fan Belts

Spark Plugs

Check all your tyres (Change if worn)

Gear Box oil (If had not been done)

Check under the car / drivetrain

And do the genaral service look over.

Its a big one for service. TGS Performance and Le Mans Automotive are to places I take my car to.

paid around that, full timing kit, water pump, fuel filter etc.

think it was only with them overnight.

Went to Nissco in bayswater, Randy is the only man to touch my cars and my familys.

yeahh i got quoted around 1k 2 do 100'000km service...

but they looked and said it had already been replaced and i just recently changed oil, fuel filter, spark plugs so i jus got them to do a minor service and change oil filter, coolent flush.

couldnt believe it when i heard $1000+ :D

i assume a 200k service is the same as 100k?

mine is due for 200k

anyone got any info on a 200k service?

std factory items (200k old): water pump, oil pump, turbo, all internals and usual junk & new coils

what really needs doing? ie: what is at risk of failure

i dont want any more power

bit of a bugger hey, water pump & oil pump in parts alone is nearly $1k all up ?

but if dont replace them and either fails then you risk the engine - bah hum bug

likewise with the turbo too i spose, if i dont replace it and the exhaust wheel dies then it can risk taking the engine and new internals with it

bugger

yeah turbo is an interesting one.

i mean any 2nd hander you get is going to have what, min 100k on it realistically. ;)

oil/water wont come to 1k, well... i suppose in total with labour and so on your over 1k :(

UAS do the cheapest pricing for that kinda stuff (pumps) so check em out

damn thats a hefty 200,000 service cost then

if i replace all the items at risk

timing belt change (as part of normal X00,000 service)

standard X00,000 service fluids, etc

oil pump

water pump

would it be needed to replace pistons here or stock ones are ok even at 200,000?

now lets say i just drive it till the timing belt snaps

its likely to mash the valves and pistons

so it would be the same as above, plus pistons and valves

  • 7 months later...

my 200,000 got done today

i did the oil and oil filter last week

new timing belt done

new water pump (current one is leaking, otherwise would have kept it)

VERY competitive pricing and fast as too (lov'in it)

thanks to EAS in airport west

    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
    • I forgot about my shiny new plates!
    • Well, apparently they do fit, however this wont be a problem if not because the car will be stationary while i do the suspension work. I was just going to use the 16's to roll the old girl around if I needed to. I just need to get the E90 back on the road first. Yes! I'm a believer! 🙌 So, I contacted them because the site kinda sucks and I was really confused about what I'd need. They put together a package for me and because I was spraying all the seat surfaces and not doing spot fixes I decided not to send them a headrest to colour match, I just used their colour on file (and it was spot on).  I got some heavy duty cleaner, 1L of colour, a small bottle of dye hardener and a small bottle of the dye top coat. I also got a spray gun as I needed a larger nozzle than the gun I had and it was only $40 extra. From memory the total was ~$450 ish. Its not cheap but the result is awesome. They did add repair bits and pieces to the quote originally and the cost came down significantly when I said I didn't need any repair products. I did it over a weekend. The only issues I had were my own; I forgot to mix the hardener into the dye two coats but I had enough dye for 2 more coats with the hardener. I also just used up all the dye because why not and i rushed the last coat which gave me some runs. Thankfully the runs are under the headrests. The gun pattern wasn't great, very round and would have been better if it was a line. It made it a little tricky to get consistent coverage and I think having done the extra coats probably helped conceal any coverage issues. I contacted them again a few months later so I could get our X5 done (who the f**k thought white leather was a good idea for a family car?!) and they said they had some training to do in Sydney and I could get a reduced rate on the leather fix in the X5 if I let them demo their product on our car. So I agreed. When I took Bec in the E39 to pick it up, I showed them the job I'd done in my car and they were all (students included) really impressed. Note that they said the runs I created could be fixed easily at the time with a brush or an air compressor gun. So, now with the two cars done I can absolutely recommend Colourlock.  I'll take pics of both interiors and create a new thread.
