At 60k you should: replace the air and engine filters, get your trans. serviced, flush the coolant and replace, and replace the drive belts.

don't forget the oil change.

hope this helps

might be a good time to replace your battery too, if it's anywhere near end of life. save your alternator.

At 60,000 miles you're supposed to install a SR20DET.

I know, I know... That is why I am wandering why should i bother with those bolts on... Now is the cost factor of SR20DET vs SR20VE...



Cheez... I have lapped behind my maintenance work!
