Jamie at Autoworkshop is one of the places I trust to service my cars and as you can see he posts the servicing costs freely on the net.

I did my 30000 service there and i was juggling between Autoworkshop and Autoworx. Since i work real close to Autoworkshop, i decide to try em out.

And boy am i glad i did.

Jamie knows his trade that's for sure. For $450 i got a full service, brake clean, handbrake adjustment and four wheel alignment. The car feels so good afterward. Not only that, he spent 20 minutes when i came and picked up the car and literally explained every little detail on the service he did. A customer service hard to find in Auto repair shop nowadays.

I'm a very happy customer.... :) ....<--- Always wanted to use this emoticon :(

This is the official 2009 Nissan maintenance schedule book, you can use it to keep a record for your own reference. Log book download.

+++1 for Autoworkshop, coming from nissan servicing i felt i was being jipped and being charged for things that weren't necessary, Phil at the Autoworkshop did a mid-service 35k service and changed spark plugs, belts and rear diff oil and again went through all the little servicing details and even showed them to me with bonus rim & headlight cleaning =)

overall came to about $735 although slimmed my wallet immensely, was very happy with the service at hand and the car felt smoother driving away too =)

Thanks for the recommendation guys!! :D

You guys are getting seriously sodomised on your servicing prices... I used to pay $190 for a regular service and $350 for a major on my 350z from a Nissan dealership.

That's pretty good. What happened? you said "i used to pay"

Did you sell your Z?

That is uncalled for in more ways then one, if they are happy with the service they received after stating how much they paid what is your problem how much they pay, in life you get what you pay for.

This has to be the first time I have ever heard someone say a service by a second year apprentice (if you are lucky) at a major dealership is better then one by someone with Jamie's experience.

I don't have a problem... Im just letting everyone know there's a cheaper option. There's not much entailed in a regular service and you don't need to be a master mechanic to competently carry out a service. Unless you're getting sexual gratification on top of the mechanical service I can't see how anybody who knows better would still be happy to pay these prices when they can service it at the prices I quoted. You own a friggin Nissan not a luxury euro car. In fact most Nissan dealerships have the 350z's as the cheapest Nissan to service. That's right cheaper than your micras or tiidas.

I was quoted $199 for a service from James @ Tokyo Motorsports (a.k.a. Autoworkshop) using Motul full synth oil and quality filters. I don't see that as getting sodomised going on price and quality of service items. If you have additional work done e.g. tranny & diff oil change or coolant flush then it's going to cost more, much like it does at a dealership. My V8 Calais standard services cost is around $250 from Holden. Start adding other service items like previously mentioned and the bill goes up pretty damn quick. I've had a bill from Holden at $1200 once, that was Sodomy. I was pissed that they replaced & serviced components I didn't authorise and let the service manager know about it, In verbal AND written form. The Bill was reduced to $800 and my next service was free.

    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
