Just Cars said they would insure it but wouldn't pay it out if I have an accident because the mods are not "road legal" in SA.

And your current isurance company will probably do the same if they get a chance.

If you have a good driving record, aren't too young (they will NOT insure under 20yrs) and are a dedicated enthusiast then I would be giving Ryno Insurance a look.

www.rynoinsurance.com.au

They are much like Shannons in that they cater to the enthusiast market, however, I have found them to be much better priced without suffering a lack of quality of service, options, or coverage - and their underwriter has recently posted better figures than Shannons (ie they are as safe as any insurance company can be).

As I posted earlier in this thread, I have agreed value of $38,000 (modified '94 R33 GTS25t), specific modifications are list in my policy, free windscreen coverage, my choice of repairer (any one I want), pay by the month with zero extra charges, and my premium is just over $900*

* Note: I'm 34yrs old and have 'low use' noted on my policy (I do under 5,000klms per year - if that).

I know of a few people that have had to make a claim on their Ryno policy... and not one complaint.

yeah i paid 19 000 for my r33 gts-s series 1. just car insured me for 12 900. my mods alone would be worth 30g's new. i got a quote for a pretty much standard series 2 1997 and they were going to insure me for 17 200. i guess i will have to be extra carefull not to write it off :)

just cars doesn't seem to make much sense then, my 93 r33 gtst agreed value is $15,000. dunno how that 95 skyline is only agreed @ $10,000. I've only got a few mods aswell, been with just cars for 3+ years and haven't had any major probs.

Well I'm definately going to ring them now. Maybe because I'm a youngen they think they can take advantage of me?

I need to get out of JustCar, my 95 33 is agreed at only 10k and they can't do any better!!!

If I ring them and tell them I want it valued higher and threaten to change companies will they raise it?

I'm going to ring around too when i get a chance.

If you speak to a customer service operator, and you arn't happy with the agreed value, try asking to speak to their supervisor to see if they can do something better!

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.

      boost source Size Garrett gt28 gen2

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
