I just Bought a 91 Infiniti Pearl-white. third owner it got regular servive at the infiniti dealership until 60,000 miles after that it was moved to NW where infiniti dealerships are few and far Between. I just Got It With 102,000 Miles. On Monday It Goes in the shop Brakes,rotors,radiator cap,belts,Lower Hose, New Trans Fluid, window tint. in a couple More months Ill do the Rear Struts. And the Next Major Maintenance I want to do Is The Timing Chain Guides. I got My Friend into Q45s he has one as well we just bought a parts car from Carson City, Dont Know what I could use on it but my friend needed body Parts. Ohhh I also Just Bought A 2006 Altima Special edition.

Welcome to NICO! Keep in mind that a lot of the work you're planning on doing (belts, radiator hoses, etc) have some overlap with the timing chain guides. If it were me, I would reverse the order, and do the guides first. You could potentially put your money into brakes, belts, etc. only to have it crater on your way home from the shop!

Good luck!

Welcome to NICO!

Let us know how we can help... this is the place to be. You'll definately want to do the guides ASAP... check http://www.q45.org for some detailed instructions.

Also.. before you dump too much money in to taking your car in to the repair shop make sure you do some reading. We can probably save you some money by helping you with some DIY projects.
