My car is coming up to 100,000 kms, what should i be looking at replacing? Its also due for an oil change & new filter & fuel filter too.

Its a '96 GTS25T with stock boost and just catback and pod.

What oil/filters should i use, and what other part need replacing? I am in auckland, nz.

Many thanks dudes :P

Ryco filters. use 10W/40 synthetic (or semi synthetic oil). I use Motul 4100.

change: water pump, timing belts, sparkies. Flush radiator if you haven't already, same for brakes (use Motul DOT 5.1 or higher grade brake fluid). Clean the pod if you haven't already.

do what you're confident with to save money. 100K services are never cheap if totally done by the mechanic.

Try and source the parts if you can. Nissan will charge an arm and a leg for Skyline parts. Take it to your mechanic (if you have one) to do your brakes etc...

yes all you said above in changing timing belt,water pump ,oil filter,sparkies ALSO change your idler bearing approx$300 from nissan oh and by the way DO NOT use an aftermarket water pump as they are inferior to nissan parts, also you may need your computer re set on the nissan consult or your idle will be erratic. if you have powerfc dont worry, good luck guys i just recovered from the bill.

      Hello sau 👋

      Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      By JC71 · Posted

      98 r34 gtt Been rocking my latest setup and car running like never before. Have put a good 200 miles on it since all the latest changes and additions. everything is dialed in and have been driving it a bunch.   However, all a sudden last weekend as soon as I pushed throttle passed 4k and the engine stumbles, (slow or fast acceleration) hesitates and doesn’t go above 4100 or so, like a misfire. Everything else seems fine. I had a “good” set of coil packs that I removed from car when I first got it when I changed them over to new coils. I swapped out current ones for those, but no change. I also changed the plugs, no change. Seems to rev over 4 when out of gear with no load just fine no “misfire”, but as soon as its in gear with a load of any kind, it “misfires” as soon as rpm drop back below 4 k it runs perfectly, smooth, starts, restarts and drives fine as long as I keep it below 4 k while in gear. All readings look fine, no CEL   Any idea as to what could all a sudden cause an issue when pushing rpms passed 4 k?

      Nismo GT Pro LSD configurations

      We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.
