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.

    • The downside of this is when you try to track the car, as soon as you hit ABS you get introduced to a unbled system. I want to avoid this. I do not want to bleed/flush/jack up the car twice just to bleed the f**kin car.
    • But again, the engineers said your cast aluminium would be fine based on the load that would be stretching that section. Same load stretching the bolts in a flex (not the twist), with a much smaller cross sectional area than the original part you've broken. It's why you'd need to be using higher strength bolts, but that's just making up for the strength you lose with less area...
    • I am truly amazed someone on this planet was able to cycle the pump using a scan tool. I've always ghetto cycled them on Nissan 90s shit boxes by slamming the brakes and pulling the handbrake to agitate the rear wheels enough to cause a speed difference
    • I didn't actually try it at the time but a Launch X431 with the appropriate software licenses/upsell will have the ABS bleed function. The Consult II you can still find some old sets of equipment but they're really, really expensive:   
    • Well I'll start by saying I'm not an engineer. I am going to go with the KiwiCNC ones.  They are made of 7050 alloy have good fillets and radius.  The material alone is in the order of double the strength and fatigue resistance - Those bolts, once torqued correctly place most of the load at the flat face of the mating surface - the 'stretch' you're talking about through torqueing them up would be far more than the extra stretch 'load' placed on them from a steering input or bump. (in my opinion) so I doubt they would flinch.    - but again "not an engineer".      oh and I don't think stitch welding 7050 is a good idea, likely just weaken the material (from what I read)
