Was trying to find racepace today.. driving down the road.. where is it? oh 10 gtrs right there out the front.. i figure that must be it :D

Got quoted about 600 for 100k service with cam gears put on (with my parts I already have) water pump fuel filter and all the shit. What you guys recon?

nah good show...

Considering all the things need done at a 100K service + your Tomei Cam Gears / Water / Fuel Pump going in...

You know you will get a great job done.

I expected a tad more from Racepace, but $600 sounds reasonable.

the 600 is just labor though all my parts you think its worth it?

So is it labor 'just' to install the parts?

What about all the oils / oil filter etc..?

we've discussed this...

labour is an ESTIMATE to begin with...it might balloon if ur engine needs more maintainance, ie seals and gaskets, that need to be replaced. its a 13 year old car. this is bound to happen.

plus all your oils and lubes because they should look over the whole car, not just the engine. gearbox, diffs, transfer case. ALL of these need fluids and they all cost money.

i told u GTRs were expensive to keep before u bought it :P

including cost of ur parts id still expect around 2k. just like i told you to expect after seeing my 100 000k write up! :P

From what others have said its a prick of a job, $1100-1300 all up is the going rate.

Yeah right...

I figured there was more than just labor to add to the service...

haha nah. my car needed new brake pads as well :P but what richo said...its not an easy job and it takes a lot of time. a timing belt kit alone is 400 from just jap. water pump retails around 180.

ever had to do a 100 000 on a gtr dezz? cuz its all fairly standard stuff. theres a bit more to check what with the 4wd system than your average gtst. 0.o

i was charged $600 to replace timing belt water pump and flush/refill radiator coolant. parts + labour

if that helps...

they didnt flush and change any of your other fluids? thats strange.

    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car.
