I'm going to VA Beach for senior week on the 14th and I want to get my car in good running condition before I head down. I have an idea of what to do before i leave but if there's anything i left out let me know. I got the car at 76K so i dont know what all was done at 60K if anything so I am basically doing a 60K service:

6 NGK Laser Platinum spark plugs $? (not sure where to get them)
Fuel filter (300ZX filter fits, right?)
Throttle body cleaning
Tighten throttle cable
Transmission flush, MT-90 fluid (any links to instructions?)
Radiator flush (any links to instructions?)
Change brake fluid (any links to instructions?)
Front 02 sensor (went bad i think, its a 02 10 code, the rear bank recently went bad too so im hoping its the same with the front, not actually an injector)
What psi should i have for my tires? It's around 29-33 psi all around right now.

I also am buying an intake off of eBay today to replace the airfilter. Should i still buy a K&N from Autozone or something? If so what size filter or part #?

I'm getting a Budget Y-pipe and generic eBay strut bar. I'm installing my suspension friday if my bearings arrive that day and my STS when the y-pipe comes in. Any other cheaper mods recommended before I head down?

Finally, I'm probably taking my car to prom this saturday. I just used a clay bar, paint cleaner, polish, and wax last saturday. I only put on a very thin layer of wax. I sorta want to polish it again to get it a little shinier if I can. Can i polish & wax this soon or would i be wasting my time?

Thanks everybody

 

anyone please?

 

I think you've got everything covered.

Have a nice trip.




P.S. Love that color!

 

I'm gonna get the plugs from JRNissan, but I need to know if i should get a 300ZX fuel filter or stock filter. I want to order both the plugs and filter at the same time to save on shipping. I did find a link to a 60K service page but they have nothing about changing brake fluid. Can anyone help me there? Thanks.

 

I don't think the 300ZX fuel filter is going to help you unless your boosted and need more fuel delivery.

Flushing the brake fluid is pretty straight forward. Get yourself a mity-vac hand vacuume pump (25 bucks from PepBoys or J.C Whitney) Just start at one wheel and suck untill you get the Master Cylinder reserve and that line full of clean fluid. Be very carefull not to let the Master Cylinder Reserve run dry! The other 3 wheels will be much quicker once you have the reserve full of clean fuild. One large bottle of DOT 3 fluid will do the job.
