That guy got ripped off, send a message to MC on this forum (who runs the GTR forum) and ask about the maintenance. The reason people say it is high is because they let the dealership charge them like 20 dollars per quart of oil.

Plus, God help you if you mod it to ridiculous power levels and blow up the tranny.
The break job is a bit pricey but honestly if you shop for your own parts and then just give them for labor it is not bad. You can get better rotors, pads, fluid for cheaper via aftermarket. Anything through the dealer is going to be good quality but you will get raped on pricing.
Dzel and Haboob like this.
