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

    • So..... it's going to be a heater hose or other coolant hose at the rear of the head/plenum. Or it's going to be one of the welch plugs on the back of the motor, which is a motor out thing to fix.
    • The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!
    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking
