man your 17 and own/drive a skyline, insurance companies are gonna love you. like some others have mentioned previously in this thread if you can't afford insurance for your car you've chosen poorly regardless if it's your dream car at the time.

do you understand why your paying such a premium?

yeah i can afford it its just crazy what insurance companies charge

I pay about $1K with Just Car for my R34GTT Coupe - just turned 22. Light mods (stereo, wheels, pod, exhaust), full retrim (thanks to UAT for materials). I'm just disappointed with their agreed value ($21K).

Anyone had luck with driving them up with regards to this figure?

i was paying $950 for my r33. thats when i was 23, and the agreed value was only about $15000.

on any of the cars i've owned i've never been charged extra for putting mods on. i've had 2 cars insured with just cars (the skyline and my old 180sx which was $1750 a year when i was 22). all the cars i have had i have done exhaust mods too (and the skyline also got a FMIC), and most of them i have put mags on, and never been charged extra.

so your with just cars and never got charged extra for mods did you tell them you had these mods?

gun metal gtr32 - you dont deserve anything with a motor in it, not even a pocket bike.

its not insurance companies who suck - it is you and you're driving history.

if you grew up and had a mature approach to driving and owing a car - you would not be in that situation.

not everbody with a skyline drives like that .i aprecaite my line for what it is i dont feel the need to flog it evertime i drive it mine hardly see's boost lol. ive never been pulled over in my line and have never lost my lisence and have prob only had 3 tickets in my whole driving period .i got my license when i was 16 im 48 now and used to drive for a living so i still say 21 losing la lisence for the 5th time ya bloody peanut . and oh yeah i really love paying $850 bucks a yr for full comp at agreed value of 18g

:-)

i gotta admit hes gota point but hey thats how it goes....

if your about to lose ya lisence

for the 5th time and ya only 21 you dont deserve a car buy a push bike ya peanut

i can do you a good deal on one.

so your with just cars and never got charged extra for mods did you tell them you had these mods?

yes i told them. rang them up to tell them after i did each mod so i wouldn't get bent over if i had an accident.

I guess it depends on your driving record more than I thought.

I've got an 89 R32 GTR, I'm 24 and I pay $1200 a year, fully comp with an agreed value of $23,000.

Only 2 speeding fines no license losses.

Edit: forgot to add I'm with justcar.

    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack.
