I have a timing belt with 35K on it. Drive belts, coolant hoses, thermostat, water pump and idler pully replaced at the same time. transmission filter replaced 40K ago. Synthetic fluids in the drive systems including the differential. New conventional fluids everywhere else. 5k on a new set of shocks complete with entirely new rubber bits and pieces. Brand new OEM front rotors and brake pads. Tires are silent, round and able with 20K on them. Rail flush and fresh antifreeze next.

Driving my J30t is like butter and I owe it to NICO for educating me about proper maintenance. I owe it to Nissan for building a superior car that got me so turned on to appreciate excellence in automotive engineering.

My J is a joy everyday and ready for anything. :)

My J has some minor cosmetic imperfections but the major systems are in excellent repair. My J30t is good to go! :)

I'm always looking for an excuse for a road trip and if I hadn't been working last weekend.... well, I have to make hay while the sun shines. My boss wouldn't give me the time off. What an A-hole (I'm my boss.)
