That price is about right but as dantheman says what is the excess.

I fell off my chair when they told me what the excess was when I got a quote.

The only problem with Just Car is they are annual prices too not pay by the month so you have to pay that up front.

Im going with Vigil insurance(Sponsor on Calaisturbo.com) who do pay by the month (Im 29 though).

With the prices they ask which is all business unfortunately there is a lot of young guys with nice cars and no insurance.

A story my dad told me was when XU1's were brand new he was only 18 or so and working as a labourer. I think they were about 20g's and he almost bought one until he checked out insurance. They wanted the equivelent of the car per year(NO SHIT). He told the salesman to stick it and walked out.

Anyway as I get older I seem to ramble on a bit.

Good luck with your insurance. You will need a personal loan just to pay for your insurance.

Cheers

as well as them not doing a higher value much over the market.

no good if u plan to highly mod your car...

no do they offer choice of repairer so u will most likely have some cheaper 'unknown' fix it, rather than a recognised specialist.

Im with Shannons, as I work for them, but im still happy to pay a little more for HEAPS better cover and localised service too.....

Get the agreed value i want and can pay by the month at no extra charge as well as being able to mod my car as much as I like without being charged extra premium each time i do it.

the younger driver has to be 1st driver due to htye being the higher risk.. i know as me and my oldman try that when buying my skyline

ohh yeah MIssy pays less cuz she is female, for those people with justcar insurance check the excess, female drivers pay less than males do

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
