what kind of service does the z need after 30,000 miles i have a new tranny and i just replaced oil now im wondering is it better to buy our own fluids or take it to dealer to get it all flushed out and have them use oem products

Under normal conditions there is no reason to worry about fluids (other than oil) until 60k.

 

in other words, not much :P
check your fluids, you know what your brakes/tires are like, you know how your clutch feels, check the air filter, there is no fuel filter to replace, change the oil and call it a day
im surprised how little maintenance the Z needs, there's really not much

this is the first car i owned that you don't need to replace a fuel filter... i was a bit confused about that. everything ive read said you dont need to replace the fuel filter, and i asked a parts guy at nissan and he told me the same thing. i think it's built into something that may need servicing eventually, but not until after 60k

 

Guys, did anyone look at the manual???

How about diferential fluid replacement, coolant replacement, manual transmission oil replacement? check the color of you brake fluid (should be clear or light brown, not black) check belts and replace if cracked - check interior part of tires (uneven tire wear) lubricate locks and hinges...
