Hey guys,

What did everyone get up too last night?

I came out to my car and found that someone wanted to key my car.

It goes from on the bonnet in circles all the way down to the passenger side to just past the rear wheel.

It is f**ked have to pay $1400.00 excess and then pay a extra $400.00 next year.

Why?

Man that sucks hard!!

Insurance is a rip. You are sometimes better off getting third party property damage instead.

The amount you pay each year plus the excess is usually more than most small accidents. Paying full comp, sometimes you could have bought your car over again in as little as 3 years! Unless you right your car off totally it is better not to have comp. I have done the sums on this & it is true.

In the last 9 years (since I bought my first import) I have saved about $27000 in insurance premiums by not going for full comp. My current import is only worth $7500, so even if I right it off I am still way better off. Thats how insurance companys make money!

I'll shut up now.

Yeah i know what your are saying but at the monment i'am still better off as i have only had my car for 7 months so all up i have payed $1600 a year premium and will have to pay $1400 excess and they are going to have to spray the entire bonnet and the entire left side of the car as the scratch mark is deep, like to the metal, so i'am not sure how much it will cost to fix.

I might be better off getting the whole car done in a different colour and me paying whatever extra it will cost.

      If you are Ecutek tuned then these TCU tunes are anywhere from $550 to $700 usd. If you are not ECUTEK tuned, then it gets costly!

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?

      Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it

      All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.

      That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
