1990 TT

[rrocket]

been driving a Q45 and just love it....want a sports car to add to the collectionlooking at a 90 TT with very low miles/kms a dentist owns it pretty much stockanyhow when you you have to do the timing belt? 60K miles and/or 100kms?car is immaculate and I'll own her very soon

[flfuzzz]

Nissan recommends a timing belt at 60K. While your in there also do the water water pump and other things like the timing belt tensioner. Courtesy Nissan sells a kit to do the entire replacement.

I think the theory is for the 60k you do just the belt and tensioner, at 12k you do the belt tensioner, tensioner stud, waterpump, thermostat, cam and crank seals, and at 180 you replace the belt, tensioner, tensioner stud, idlers, and idler studs. don't cheap out on the tensioners, idlers and studs, I've seen the studs snap and the idlers lock up and take out the whole engine, and to find a 60k 90 model is very rare! if the price is decent snatch it up quick, I'd be tempted to do all the goodies on this 17 year old car even if the milage isn't up, but yeah courtesy sells kits, I believe z1 also sells a kit, but I have found nissan of gastonia http://buynissanparts.com to be the cheapest and a NICO sponsor

You might also try calling Joe at everythingnissan... His contact info is in my sig.. he doesnt list the timing belt kit on the site but i know he has them, with everything you need!!!

If you call Joe, tell him you know Wes and he'll set you up!

Hope you get it! Nothing like a Z32.

But like they said, do the full 60K maintence kit when you do the belt.

thanks60K kilometers is about 40K miles plus/minusare you quoting the 60k in miles?I'm hopin g to get a few miles in before changing the belt....

[nsrZ32]

yeah I was quoting in miles. So figure about 100K kilometers.
