hmmm got the second quote today.. forgot to ask what it was.. tomorrow something else happens and I might find out if it's a write off...

To be honest i'm 50/50 with what ever happens.

Money is nice, but driving a nice car is a bonus too.

Can I just ask a quick question.. those of you that have had accidents and made a repair/writeoff claim, who were you with and did you have any illegal mods? Were they a problem when you tried to make a claim (esp with Just Cars & Shannons). Were they listed on your policy or did they just not see them or ...?

I'm just wondering if we should be bothering with comp insurance (as opposed to 3rd party) because everyone says something different but most of those people haven't tried to make a claim!

Anyway feel free to PM if you don't want anything posted public.. I appreciate any answers :P

Ignuz: at least if you didn't put much time & effort into the car and weren't really attached to it.. if you get a payout you'll probably save money or get alot of extras on your new car at the current prices lol :P

If the gtst got written off, we could easily buy a beaten up GTR (but still a gtr!) with the payout! gah

All i had was an exhaust.. 3/4 so no biggy there.

I'm 50/50 I guess...

Having the car back with new paint, etc would be nice..

Having money would be nice too.. but, i'd prolly get something that isn't too fun or interesting until im atleast 20 :)

the thing about the mods is that if you have an accident and the insurance company doesnt know about the mods they just wont fork out to put the mods back ....

I only had mine for 3 months ...but i was still attached :) ...

They sold her at the auction today for $4800 ....I COULDA BOUGHT HER BACK!!! ARRRRGHHHH!!!!

That sucks balls.

So you wont make a claim for the extra money that you want but are to scared to ask for.If you had gone to them in person and asked the nice lady over the desk to keep it on the low and not report it,just ask her nicley,and she might say wether or not you can get the extra money or even buy back the aftermarket parts back from the car.

      Forced Performance Hta Turbos

      By LaurelPWR · Posted

      Dredgggggeeee time; I have recently finally started driving the car. It sat for so long that the fuel tank gave birth to rust sludge and blocked my lift pump sock and one of my walbro 460's and left grime, rust chunks and muck all through the surge tank and system. I decided to commit and pull the trigger on an oem r32 gtr fuel tank and Frenchys twin 460 / sender / surge tank hanger combo and all new larger lines and fittings etc, also boost doc heater hose kit / new heater core and a heap of other bits and shits like wideband sensor installed in the dump and Syltech iacv + lines and all wired and added to current tune. now having lightly driven it a couple times without issue, I can happily report on the hta3076 in its current tune. still no boost control switched on, 20psi gate springs, car makes 22psi at 3200rpm in 6th gear with 30-50% TPS from cruise at 100kmh. Going by the old graph, this means it should be making 300-325whp at the same numbers above. Very very responsive setup under true road driving loads. all that's left for the build is body loom + PDM, finish the remote aircon setup, install carbon fibre parts and go for full tune and 30psi. the 315 rear tyres are now performing like they're 195's, wheel spin in any gear at almost any rpm, whereas my previous setup hooked up in 3rd no issue, albeit Nt01's back then / RB25 5spd vs (new) old date r888r's Z34 6spd now, + obviously all the support upgrades I listed in the quoted post above. car sits at 1-3psi on cruise at 100kmh, expectations totally exceeded and I'm beyond stoked with all this so far.

      Crank Motorsports Front Axles

      I've also been eyeing their rear axles for my car. I purchased seat mounts from them about 7 years ago and they were hot garbage so I've been a little wary about purchasing them. With that being said, please buy them and get back to us haha.

      Sheraaz's R34GTT Build

      By Shizu · Posted

      Being a manual, we very quickly ordered new R34 gearbox (From Nissan) and remaining parts from Kudos motorsports. Would highly recommend the team there. Ultra helpful and quick to share advice and upgrades. We are in the middle of taking the Auto out (Genuine 94,000/kms) and putting the Manual in this weekend. Part 2 of the build will include likely a Plazaman Intercooler and Plenium, Hks Exhaust with Tomei Dump (ordered).
