I am using TORQUE INSURANCE who operate through a company called Lumley Insurance... insured my 93 R32 GTR for $26000 and only paying $1050 per year... I am 27 so I am over the 25 cut off that most insurance companies have but I lost my licence 3 times when I was a lot younger so I think this is a great price.

Yeah well I've been trying to call them today (Left two messages)... There is an american recorded voice on the other end, no-one seems to answer and I havent got a call back all day. They sound seriously dodgey, and I'm doubting that they have an Australian branch at all - its probably diverted to USA offices. Sure, it's related to washington, but a company that has this sort of shit raised against them is bound to be less than completely trustworthy..

Insurance companies arent something you want to take a punt on - especially when it could mean having to pay out for a $100,000 merc that you accidentally wrote off when your insurance company turns out to be a bunch of dodgey pricks from the USA! Im sure you catch my drift!

Insure with these guys by all means - just dont start a whining thread when they f*ck up your claim and you lose your car, or you have to pay out for the medical bills of a child you ran over when your insurance company leaves you high & dry!! :P

Im just saying - be careful :(

there is no '.au' postfix on that url, meaning its not a wa government website for a start.

wtf has that got to do with anything? I was never inferring that it was from Australia. It just is a coincidence that washington happens to have the same abbreviation that Western Australia does... It clearly says "WASHINGTON" on the top of the pdf anyway! :P

I was saying that a company that has this sort of order against them (ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD) is to be approached cautiously!!

Thanks but I was going for the more "Its 99% probability that its not the same company as this washington thing"

http://www.insurance.wa.gov/oicfiles/order...ers/D06-176.pdf

Proper URL for those that can't click.

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
