Full Service time - Rabster - 21-09-2019

Ok so had the blue one about 2 weeks now and having lots of fun with it. however the previous owner is unaware if the cambelt has been done and said it could do with a service.

So my question is guys and girls what should i do/have done

So far
  • Cam belt and tensioners
  • Oil change
  • New ancilary belts
  • New plugs

What else do yo think i need to do its a RB25 Engine that's been played with

Do you know how long it's been since it had gearbox/diff oil, coolant & thermostat changed? RB25s are coil-on-plug aren't they so you don't need to worry about dizzy caps and rotor arms or HT leads.

water pump?


Full Service time - toxo - 21-09-2019

Good point, if you're having the belts off do you want to do the pumps while you're in there?
