Are RAC insuring Skyline turbos again?

They decided not to and when I enquired with their management they said it was due to the difficulty of getting parts.

I put them onto my contact at Northside Nissan to prove there was no problem.Must've convinced them

My 34 costs $1050 through Shannons but then I'm an old bastard with max NCB

Cheers

Yeh i thought the same:confused:

I tried rac and they told me to go jump due to the fact i have a 91TT supra and i am only 21.

I ended up going for a broker called harrintons: 9388 1299 and they did mine through SGIO for 2400 but unfortunately icant pay it in increments has to be all up front cause of the broker.

Hey Guys,

I am with the RAC .... I am paying just over $1200 a year to insure my 95 GTST... Oh yeah and I am 23.

I am pretty happy with it considering SGIO was charging me $1200 a year to insure my VL Commodore.... Which is for sale if anyone is curious :uh-huh:

Now that I got my shameless plug out the way.... Back to browsing the forums.... Hey at least Ianswered the thread question :D

Its all about the number of turbos, if you say TT then you get screwed. This is what happened when i was looking at cars, and RAC wont even insure my dad for a Z, he had to go shannons.

They think more turbos = more power which i spose is usually the case, but if you said i have a 800cc suzuki mighty boy twin turbo they still would knock you back...

Wouldnt that be an interesting car...

Heya Guys,

Yeah I am one of those RAC groupies aswell! I am 23 (as of two weeks ago) insured my 95 GTST for $24,000 and am paying $1400. I did enquire with RAC the 300ZX twin turbo (what was i thinking! ahah) and they said they wouldn't insure me due to twin turbo's and i would have to wait till i turned 25! so looks i am going to have to tell my dealer in Japan not to ship over my brand new R34 GTR for a couple of years!...... AHAHAAHAHA!!! YEAH RIGHT!! I WISH!

as R34 said Shannons are a good import enthusiast company for turbo lovers such as us, you do pay a bit more but i would rather pay a bit more for that extra piece of mind! i have heard they will insure nearly all cars...at a price...

P.S my friend smashed his black 300ZX just out of northbridge under the tunnel (near omni) and he had NO insurance!

    • I'm in the market for 370GT.  I live in Canberra and not much available so I'm looking interstate.  Can anyone recommend an inspection service with expert knowledge of Skylines? Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide (Elizabeth area)
    • A million years later, searching for something else I posted, I was reminded of this thread. I eventually bought a new gauge. Put it in using the same probe (which has been installed the whole time stopping the exhaust gas from coming out the hole) and.... normal service has been resumed. The old gauge was definitely broken. /semi-pointless closure.
    • They're available from Nissan! I was able to buy a GTR (R33) one.. relatively* recently. Perhaps this stopped now but I bought mine ... relatively recently. I believe the 300ZX one has a different knee-point which is more rear biased, which I think the HFM one echos.
    • Hey Team, A bit to unload here. Hello from New Zealand I have a 2009 Nissan Skyline 370GT ( Type SP ) Auto 7 Speed, that I've had since 2022 and have loved the car since. Its painted in its factory QAB ( White Pearl ) with the Impul front lip and rare boot lid/spoiler with woodgrain interior. Mods since I've bought it and installed: Stillen Gen 3 Long Tube Intakes Motordyne Shockwave Catback Exhaust JDM Skyline Taillights Fake carbon spoiler and front grill ( Will be taking off.... its cringe ) VR30DETT Transmission from the Q50/Q60 to hold up to 550 Foot pounds of Torque ( 753 nm ) reliable  Currently I plan to turbo the car and have all the parts needed ( Photo Included ), I have my tuning day set on August 8th and choosing EcuTek as my tuning platform. Two of my work colleagues has their 370Z ( Manuel ) and 370GT coupe ( Type SP - Manuel ) also turbo'd and they have inspired me to get it done I have prepped quite a wee bit for this, as I had done the VR30 transmission swap over to this car so that I can achieve my HP goals without torque being an issue. I've taken quite a cautions route, as im always thinking about the safety as well as performance with my build, I'd rather do it properly and not cut corners etc etc. Any who, I've recently picked up the AutoStrada cruise control kit with all the included cables/wires/instructions. I've been hella researching around and can't find much on the integration that it has with the ECU and/or system. the only reason why im asking is, because I'm getting EcuTek and one of them RaceRom features allows the ability to switch maps via the cruise control function, which I am currently in the grey area if this would add-on via the Canbus will allow me to switch maps or have the option to use Cruise Control to begin with ( showing up on the instrument cluster to advise Cruise Control being set etc etc )  Because of my model being Type SP, Cruise Control on these models was never an option from factory unfortunately.  Anyone here that is able to shed some light on if the Cruise Control via AutoStrada gives OEM ability over the cruise control. Would love and appreciate any response and/or assistance with this, also happy to answer any question about my build and ill try pitch in where I can. Warm Regards,  
    • I thought the only (new) BM57 that was readily available was the one that was a BM57 but with the wrong bias. HFM or someone's?
