Well after some initial fears of what the insurance costs would be for a R33 GTS-t,

I rang SunCorp today and with my current no claim status asking for full comprehensive it comes out to $770.

Probably the only joy of getting old, 31.

I was very impressed with SunCorps phone manner and the patience with the rep having me asking all sorts of what ifs, EG TurboV'sNon-Turbo (no dif), 4-DoorV's2-Door (no dif)

I can highly recommend them to any one.

I'm with Suncorp too MRE :)

mine costs heaps more than yours though! :(

$1400 a year, 28yr old, 60% NCB

maybe it's cos I'm in Canberra? hmmm who knows...

You're right, their phone matter is great! I rang up to make quite a few changes, and the guy was so nice!

MRE

Thats an awesome price. Sun corp have been know to give some funni prices. ie $25k a year for a 18 year old kid with a R33 GTST worth $22k.

Pretty much if your not in QLD your paying heaps extra through them, even more if your under 30.

Just out of comparison i pay $960 a year on 55% ncb with RAC in WA.

I paid 1040 for mine just cars. I rang unique there quote was dearer but if I write the car Off I get first chance at the wreck and I liked that till they arked up about by wife parking inthe city in a secure car park at night go figure it was 5:00 pm on a friday and cover ran out on the sunday. told the guy to get fu**ed and rang just cars after 5 pm on a friday they took my cash no probs so unique wont be getting referals from my site any more. and with just cars rating one protection $35. btw that was with all my mods declared and endorsed. but I'm an old bastard. I think as well with most compaies after one year no prangs they realise you can handel the car.

here is a good one for you guys looking to build a rating. for the last 5 or so year my cars haven't been great so I only had third party but was insured with racv. although I had a claim with them (my car was stolen) they still gave me a rating one casue I had had no claim for 7 years or more. btw NSW sux not having third party fire and theft or at least third party property.

    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home  
    • 1.05 you’ve gotta let it breath 
    • You have to continuously fill it to avoid dry running. Personally the transmissions I've serviced have never been bad enough to justify doing this because it is definitely a pretty complicated and somewhat risky procedure compared to simply draining the pan, measuring what came out, then refilling with the exact same amount.
