Hey mate I just had my 100k service done not long ago and I sourced the parts myself. In most cases it will work out cheaper to buy the parts yourself, around $100. You'll still get slammed ~$550-$650 for labour though. Can't comment on doing it yourself because there was no way I was going to try it myself :)

i did my 100k service myself, i hate doing the same job twice so i changed everything

NSK tensioner bearing 130

NSK idler bearing 100 (both bearings sourced from CBC bearings in malaga, they are same quality as oem but if u get them through nissan they are way overpriced)

nissan cam seals 20 x 2

nissan crank seal 30

genuine nissan neo water pump 230

gates timing belt 85

i think thats all, pretty expensive service thats for sure! id hate to pay labour ontop of that...... lucky me :merli:

i strongly advise against doing it yourself unless you know what your doing and you are aware of the correct belt tension etc etc as you could see the end of your motor if belt goes bye bye lol

i also advise you to buy genuine parts, aftermarket oil seals and cheap bearings are a mechanics worst enemy

I got my 100k kit from Kudos Motorsport (SAU business trader). It was around $470 delivered? The water pump, timing belt and seals were genuine but the tensioner and idler bearing were NSK (made in Japan). The kit doesn't come with auxillary belts along with your filters which you should probably do while your doing the major service.

im coming up for my 100k service also, probably within the next few weeks or something, cbf doing it myself.. actually i think i have to get Autoworx to do it, otherwise i void my AWN warranty.

excuse my trollishness' for the below text.

you dont have to get us to do your service , you can service it anywhere you like .

you will need a proper tax invoice for the service

you cant do it yourself or get your mates to do it though

Ah ok, thanks for clearing that up.

Besides i wouldnt get anyone else to touch my car other than you guys anyway. was just saying heh.

Did my 100km service in January, I had the guys at X-speed do all the work and source all the parts,..I mean they do this all the time and should know which parts work better than I do.

End result, just over $1000k including parts (water pump, timing belt, filters), labour, oil, coolant and a 28 point safety check. I'm quite happy with this service and would recommend Hanson and the guys for any service or repair work to any import.

I wouldn't bother getting the parts myself, they buy them in bulk and would get discounts. If you wanted a special part ask them.

You have to be soooooooooo bloody careful when you are putting the new timing belt on aswel, have to make sure everything lines up else if cam or anything is out even a little, can destroy shit/bend valves etc

I had mine done at Xspeed, cost me about $900 total for the full 100,000km service of an R32 GTR and that included all parts aswel.

I would be taking it to a workshop. Besides labour you wont save that much on parts going else where. Remember also you must be comparing apples with apples. An ebay kit is most likely going to be cheap parts. Workshops will generally give you the quality parts worth the bucks. A 100km service is important for the sake of a small fortune you should get a pro to take care of it.

your probally right, but id like to give it ago, worst thing i can do is blow the thing up isnt it :D all the other things are easy cept ive not done a RB25 timing belt before, done others, old things like a 69mini cooper -.-" haha

    • 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
