change oil, oil filter, spark plugs and gaped to 0.8mm, fuel filter, all fan belts, timing belt, top up fluids, air filter, change gearbox oil + diff oil, check timing and addvance it if u like, flash ur cooling system, break pads, check disks for wear.

thats all i can think of when i did a major service on my r32 gts-t when it came from japan. hope that helps u. u might want to do sum of the service urself coz if u take it sumwhere it will cost u $$$$

cheers

What he said.

Plus

consider changing fuel pump. Old stock r32 gtst pump ~15 years old... fuel pump failure can kill your motor. just grab a walbro. Lots of the sponsors sell them.

And also spark plugs won't necessarily need replacing, just check them, if they're iridiums they're ment to last 100,000kms... :)

Also check all bushes and boots for cracking/leaking etc.

Under the bonnet. Mine is ECR33-114098

Yours should look similar.

See the fuel filter in that list? noone mentioned that one eh? I use that list as a reminder of what NOT to forget =-]

Thanks man.. i dont have VIN code yet cauz car is at a freinds shop.. but im trying to get this NISSAN FAST program.. im gettin the nissan fast torrent but for the (a1,a2,a3,b1,b2) he seems to have no bandwith left.. can u somehoe send them to me.???

I'd suggest checking all your rubber hosing eg your tophose, ours blew the other week at a freeway exit at 12am! GAH

Bleeding your brakes is also good, and our master cylinders have both gone in the last few months so watch out for brake fluid leaking on your pedals.

Don't gap your plugs to 0.8mm unless you are running more than 12 psi boost and DON'T EVER BUY A WALBORO PUMP! They suck rancid tuna salad from hippo's arses.

ALSO....read this thread - you will learn a lot.

    • Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity.
    • 100% the factory sender is tapered, that is how it seals (well, that and teflon paste or tape)
    • Thanks folks - I've saved a few links and I'll have to think of potential cable/adapters/buying fittings. First step will be seeing if I can turn the curren abortion of a port into something usable, then get all BSPT'y on it. I did attempt to look at the OEM sender male end to see if it IS tapered because as mentioned you should be able to tell by looking at it... well, I don't know if I can. If I had to guess it looks like *maybe* 0.25 of a mm skinnier at the bottom of the thread compared to where the thread starts. So if it is tapered it's pretty slight - Or all the examples of BSPT vs BSPP are exaggerated for effect in their taper size.
    • Have a look at that (shitty) pic I posted. You can see AN -4 braided line coming to a -4 to 1/8 BSPT adapter, into a 1/8 BSPT T piece. The Haltech pressure sender is screwed into the long arm of the sender and factory sender (pre your pic) into the T side. You can also see the cable tie holding the whole contraption in place. Is it better than mounting the sender direct to your engine fitting......yes because it removes that vibration as the engine revs out 50 times every lap and that factory sender is pretty big. Is it necessary for you......well I've got no idea, I just don't like something important failing twice so over-engineer it to the moon!
    • Yup. You can get creative and make a sort of "bracket" with cable ties. Put 2 around the sender with a third passing underneath them strapped down against the sender. Then that third one is able to be passed through some hole at right angles to the orientation of the sender. Or some variation on the theme. Yes.... ummm, with caveats? I mean, the sender is BSP and you would likely have AN stuff on the hose, so yes, there would be the adapter you mention. But the block end will either be 1/8 NPT if that thread is still OK in there, or you can drill and tap it out to 1/4 BSP or NPT and use appropriate adapter there. As it stands, your mention of 1/8 BSPT male seems... wrong for the 1/8 NPT female it has to go into. The hose will be better, because even with the bush, the mass of the sender will be "hanging" off a hard threaded connection and will add some stress/strain to that. It might fail in the future. The hose eliminates almost all such risk - but adds in several more threaded connections to leak from! It really should be tapered, but it looks very long in that photo with no taper visible. If you have it in hand you should be able to see if it tapered or not. There technically is no possibility of a mechanical seal with a parallel male in a parallel female, so it is hard to believe that it is parallel male, but weirder things have happened. Maybe it's meant to seat on some surface when screwed in on the original installation? Anyway, at that thread size, parallel in parallel, with tape and goop, will seal just fine.
