okie its time for my 100,000ks service, i know oil + filter needs changing, and my brakes are being replaced (rotors and pads) anyways in the next week and brake fluid flush/replace too so otherwise what do i need doing, obviously timing belt is the big thing but is there anything else i should do ? sparkies havent been done for about 20,000ks (ngk platinums) should they get checked/replaced ?

and anyone know places who do good services at a good price ?

reason for rotors/pads change is just cause they are worn out, not to do with the k's, as for water pump i removed my clutch fan and put a thermo in and have had that for about 20,000+ks so im thinking that would take a lot of load off the water pump and hence increasing the life of it, but if its safer to just replace it i rekon ill do that

reason im asking what i should check is i wanna do most things myself, stuff thats too complex or i dun wanna stuff up ill get a shop[ to do

I think you will (or should) really replace your crank with a forged item, new rods, forged pistons, and your turbo should be pretty much buggered by now, so a big 400 rwkw should be fitted, along with big fuel pump, larger injectors and probably a hollinger sequencial dog box.

That should all see you through to the next 100k service.

BASS OUT

Idler and tensioner bearings. Go to somewhere like CBC rather than Nissan though - when I got mine, the Nissan ones were something like $350 each, at CBC they were (from memory) $40 for the pair. Same brand, same stampings, same everything, they're exactly the same bearing, the only thing I didn't get was a Nissan logo on the box and a much bigger bill :P

Also it doesn't hurt to get fan/aircon/power steering belts, and check the balancer while you're there.

Throw the TD06 ON...its a MUST :D

LOL, its sold, got picked up yesterday "Ezrakael" is the proud new owner of the kit, as for my sky, im in a dilemma what to do mods-wise so first thingts first, service it and make it schmick (even though there's nothing wrong with it atm) i just wanna be sure to prevent anything happening in future coz this sky has had 0 probs since i bought it n i wanna keep it that way :P

as for the bearings etc yes are there any sites with part numbers etc ?

cheers guys, hopefully this thread can be stickied with the relevant info once we'ce clarified everything for a 100ker so others can use it in the future ;) :zap:

I don't remember them off the top of my head as it was ~80,000km ago :P I just took my old ones as samples to CBC (which is about 500m from my house), who matched em up for me. It did take a couple of visits to find someone who knew what they were on about.

At the time (about 3 or so years ago when there were hardly any 'lines around), genuine wasn't an option, as Nissan said it'd take three weeks to get some in from Japan and didn't have a listing to compare with the RB30 ones... so they wouldn't supply them for fear of being blamed later.

i'm pretty sure the UAS site still has this information listed but just in case it doesn't.

i had ice do mine and it came out well, i got it done at 94000 howver ive noticed its been harder to start since about 102000. not sure why. have a new battery instaleld too. takes about 1 or 2 full cranks before it starts, i admit ive done no troubleshooting on it but just an annoying "feature"

u got an aftermnarket comp ? coz wolf 3ds take ages to crank ive noticed as part of them, nothing wrong with that, and i *think* my powerfc made mine take 1 or 2 cranks longer, meh, it still starts n purrs perfectly :D

shivam - how much would all dat cost lol ? i mean what would say ice do for a 100k'er' ? anyone know ? i gotta head down there soon anyways to have a chat once my brakes are on the car (tomorrow YAY!) so if noone knows i guess ill enquire down there as the car is at alost 95,000 now which is when i wanna get it done

:D

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
