I’m sorry, I’m going to try not to put you down but.. yeah you are an immature driver, and in saying that I’m not saying your an idiot and I’m not saying that your a bad driver or anything like that.. I’m just saying that your not an experienced driver ( how could you be at 17 years old )

Many people will read this thread and have a slight amount of shock hit them because your 17 and you drive a GTR.

Id be surprised if an insurance company didn’t have a laugh on the phone and hang up on you.. but in the same frame of mind I cant help but wonder what I would do if I was 17 and had a GTR.

The hitting of the SSS and not telling the c0ps isn’t a big deal but its a bit concerning..

I wish you luck young padawan...

hmmm, maybe the reason i dont find it as being a shock is that all my mates have turbos....

to be exact :

Skyline gtst

180sx

2006 wrx STI

2000 Wrx

We are all 17

damn nice to have cash is it?

anyways dont crash the gtr and when ur 19, it should be about half the price it is now

good luck and drive safe

Got the quote.

Annual Prem = 4221

Access = 2100

oh god....

jeez - youd have to sell your soul to insure that by the sounds of things. Why not just get something cheaper for now. I know its easier said than done, especially when you want a gtr. There was a time when I was looking at an NA silvia - but then I figured may as well stick with my 1982 civic till I get older. Having said that though, if there is someway for you to raise that 4 grand, then go for it. But keep in mind, the maintainance costs, fuel costs, and set aside some for speeding fines etc.

EDIT: I just checked with just car online - with the mods I have on my r33 gtst - I looked up for a gtr. Believe it or not its only 1222 for comprehensive - excess 1500. In my opinion - maybe its best that you wait.

Jeez......

We all had pretty got cars when we were that age, except that they were worked 6's or V8's

Or the odd FJ40 motor in a datto 1600......

I would love to know the insurance on a 06 WRX STi at 17!!!!!!

fark dude i wouldnt waste 4k insurance aye

id wait a couple years and save myself 7k in insurance

4k is alot but if you total your car its alrite money well spent

if you reckon your a good driver and wont crash

get third party fire and theft

if you reckon your beyond this go no insurance :(

if i had 30k id buy a s15

genuine k's and cheaper on insurance due to being an aussie import

also think about your fuel? but if your parents are gonna pay for it your alrite

think about all the servicing factors aswell !!!

owning a car like this at that age you'll be skipping meals to pay for shit

just my 2 cents :wave:

and then another $1000 excess for an ok stereo...

and if you get ultra nice rims they probably wont cover them anyway

uh huh.. *no one* will insure my LE Sparco rims. ;)

lock nuts fo' life.

personally i wouldnt buy a 33 GTR at 17... i regret buying my 33 GTS-T at 18 sometimes..

$4000+ a year for insurance makes it seem not worthwhile either.. why spend $30k on a car, and then another $4000+ a year to keep it safe..

i plan on buying a GTR, but not until ive falled down a few insurance brackets, its not worth owning a nice/expensive car at a young age.

you also said you dont plan on 'being silly' or anything in it, but if your mates all have sti's, gts-t's, etc etc.. peer pressure WILL crack you. :huh:

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      By Duncan · Posted

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
