How Often Do You Service Your 350Z?

[thezed]

just bought a z 2 weeks back, fuel consumption at RM70 = 180km at normal town driving, used fully synthetic enoes 5w-50 at RM180 4 litres but need to add another litre, insurance only RM4432 at sum assured of 158k.

 

[freestyler0708]

so full tank is rm 180 or rm 200?

to all future owners of 350Z: the other day i pumped full tank petrol cost me rm174.. and it can go for 500+km IF u drive constant speed.. i drove down to sg from kl and when i arrived at machap, i still have a lil less than half tank :)

as for the insurance, it really depends on how much u want to insured for.. for me, i insured it for rm240k which means about rm6,544 every year.. there goes about rm10k every year for insurance and roadtax.. u must be asking me why i insured it for rm240k.. it's becoz the Z is worth that much.. it's a 05' model..

btw, i just serviced my Z recently.. 2 days ago.. it was rm550 including labour charges.. rm495 for motul engine oil and oil filter is rm30.. as for brake pads, in april i change new ones.. rm820 for front and back endless pads.. so far i've not change the timing belt and i've been driving the z for almost 9 months.. it's my everyday car..

oh, i service the Z every 5,000 km :) hope all this info will answer some of your questions

ps: i bought the Z at beaucar.. and i know some skyline owners also bought their car with this car dealer.. if u want, i can recommend u to it :)

I believe the z comes with timing chain,may not require to chaange..

 

[nicole_nic]

yes.. my mechanic told me that the z isn't using the belt.. it's a chain..

anyways, i'm not too sure how much the cost of the transmission oil.. sorry :P

A summary of how best to spot what spec JDM(Japanese Domestic Markets) you are dealing with:
- Standard/Base does not have Brembos, VDC(vehicle dynamics control), Bose, or Leather but does have TCS(traction control system) .
- T Version does not have Brembos or VDC, but does have Leather, TCS and Bose.
- S Version does not have Bose, leather or TCS, but does have VDC and Brembos.
- ST Version does not have TCS, but does have Brembos, VDC, Bose and Leather.
(Due to additional options or aftermarket parts a JDM may not match any of the above specs).

hi sis..

after done several testing with my z33...yes i indeed agree with u..

for full tank i never go full up to 80liter even it was stated in nissan website dat z33 full tank is 80litre...i only go for 65~70liter....can go up to 500km for town driving....and for highway...can go up to 700km...for standard z33 which mean factory fitted sud b better fuel consumption..bcoz mine already modify the air filter+xhaust n unichip...not really sure how this 3 really effect fuel consumption or not..

dats all from me...
