A few maintence questions

I'm at 130,000KM right now. So far for the car all I've done is the following:

Oil change every 6,000KM
Rear-differential oil once @80,000KM
Automatic transmission oil once @80,000KM
Brake rotors and pads @80,000KM and 130,000KM

What else do I need to do? I'm thinking about changing the spark plugs, the belts, and the shocks, but is it needed? Also how will putting in the 2008 350Z shocks with TEIN H-Techs affect my ride?

HAHA, you might get an answer to your questions if you spoke english KM's? Very few of us are going to sit down and figure out KM vs Miles to answer your questions.... Maybe one of your fellow Canadians. Oh and the Tein H-Techs and Z shocks should ride like OEM but you'll need suspension adjusters to bring you alignment back to OEM specs.

Spark plugs are supposed to last 100,000mi (160,000km) in this car, so unless you have a rough idle or your engine is mis-firing, I wouldn't bother. Likewise, if you needed new shocks, you'd know it because your car would bounce like crazy over bumps. If it's still nice and tight, you don't need new shocks. Change the belts, though. They'll be way cracked and close to failure if you haven't changed them in such a long time.
