today after work i arrive home a happy chap all excited about my r33 which i'll b pikn up in the next 3 weeks when my dad say's guess wot? I say "umm i broke the gate" he says no worse.... you cant get the r33 because full comp insurance was 5k CHEAPEST!

He just refuses to get a car without full comp which i think is bullsh*t!

He said we can look at a nice VS calais for the same price (16k) but it compares like chalk and cheese.

So now i feel like crawling in a hole and dying.........

i know how you feel

i originally wanted a r32 and found a nice black one with gtr intercooler, bigger turbo, air filter, 3" piping exhaust, 17" mags with 255 tyres for 15k

and then i got rejected

yes its freakin depressing when you get all worked up

but luck changes, if you set yer heart on it, you will get it

tho i sometimes wish i got that 32

it was so ****in fast....

dude, go to a insurance broker, they can talk so much shit and do so many dodgies to get you a legit insurance for real chaep. Only downside is u gotta pay em like $500 or sumfin. I got mine for $2300 (rating 6, 20 yr old with 1 suspension for illegal street racing and exceeding speed limit by 118km/hr and still on my Ps) I paid the broker like $250 and he got me one thru Just Cars. Altho this IS for a R32 GTS, so I dunno.

The broker I used now lives in England or sumfin, coz I rang him to try n get quotes for insuring the R32 GTR... so I doubt he could help u, but I'm sure another would do the same thing.

I pay around $1800 under my dad (has been rating 1 for 10 + years) with me as second driver.

how the hell do you do that? i heard you can't do that with imports. my dad has rating 1 for bout 15 years but they wouldn't let me be second driver

your stuffed if you have an accident during the week then denham..

Try uniquecar.com.au but only if you are over 25.. but they will insure all mods too and full value (justcars generally just gives agreed value).

justcars is a ****ing ripoff

    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...

    • It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.
