Maybe honesty is the best *policy* in this case... ;)

I am with Lumley Special Vehicles... $1352 p.a.

market value, $1000 excess, window protection, rating protection

all based on:

- 25 y.o. Male

- Rating One from previous insurer

- Suspended license at beginning of 2004

- Claim in mid 2004

Hi John

I am not driving a V35 but a M35. Unfortunately Sydney sucks for insurance. I thought it was my suburb (which is a very nice inner west area) but I was told by the an insurance company that if I wanted cheaper insurance move to another state!

I started with Just Cars at $1800 for the M35 insured at $30k. Excess was $1600 and I am over 40 with a great driving record.

I changed to Lumleys a couple of months ago because the rate was not much cheaper but excess was about $400, they do not need every driver nominated and I can pay my annual insurance in quarterly payments with no premium.

Cheers

Andy

Mate,

You are penny wise, pound foolish. Just wait until you make a claim and they subsequently find out about your undisclosed history.

BOHICA!!!

hmmm bought to buy insurance for my v35

anyone recommend anyyone?

I was quoted by just cars for 1950 (with an exhaust mod)

600 standard excess, 1000 care excess, 600 age = 2200 excess in total?

eexcess is a tad steep for my liking, anyone recommened nayone else for a 23 y.o such as myself with no claims or infringmenet history?

I thought maybe shannons,but I heard they only do over 25...

Correct, and your car has to be garaged for them to take a look.

I did a lot of research and Lumley had easily the best premium/excess and terms (I don't work for them!).

since I work for a Bank, I get group insurance with my bank underwritten by QBE

Quite good 1386 premium, 500 excess, 600 age excess, u get to choose repairer too!

they dont take into account your driving history at all.

work for a bank, if u have a terrible driving history and under 25!

I've renewed with Shannon's again.

Really can't fault them at this stage. And now that they have the second car policy, my Maxima is cheaper to insure with Shannons than ANY of the major insurance companies.

Also switched my home insurance to them, and they give you a discount if you have a CAMS liscence.

I'm getting my V35 Track spec tomorrow, and I paid Lumley AUD907 and got a quote with just cars for AUD890. I'm 31 and living near brisbane. I got it fianace with St George bank on a secure loan. But St George service is damn lousy. Wasted AUD 80+ just on my mobile just to call them, again & again.

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
