Car: 1999 R34 Sedan

Post

Hey guys, finally won my 1998 r34 sedan at auction!
It the Gt turbo rb25 manual

Anyways the purpose that I bought this car is a beater, something to have fun in and now worry about the paint/dents and stuff, few drifts haha

The.vehicle is high mileage, comes with 150xxx km, although it's only had 1 owner and is 100% stock so hopefully wasnt beaten on too bad.

As soon as i get the car I want to do some decent maintenance for it to run optimally while it can.
Any suggestions what I should check /service at this mileage? I'm thinking check timing belt, check battery, replace water pump, replace Spark plugs, oil change, transmission and diff fluid

What else do you guys think I should inspect / replace??

After that im gonna have my fun with the motor (Not too too hard) till it dies and either swap in a low K rb25 or rebuild the current one (which one of these is better)

Thanks for the input!

I'd replace the timing belt and pulleys (idler and tensioner) since you're going to replace the water pump.
