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.

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

    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
    • You haven't driven many modern cars then have you? Most of them have sfa steering feel with their stupid electric bullshit steering systems.
