i currently own a 33 gtst, im only 18 and it costs me 4k a year for full comp insurance, and have always loved the look of the stagea's, and wondering if i was to off load the skyline and jump in a nice suttle stagea could i expect to pay less insurance you think? it really is an option i am looking at... nothin makes go weak at the knee's more than a tuff wagon

agrees with Micah.

you will definetely pay less with a stagea. Try shannon insurance and look for xavier or nick or vince. I think they came to the SAU meeting and was introduced in the meeting. I assume they will look after you . Tell them you are from SAU though.

being that age with shannons, I highly doubt they'll do anything for you.

most companies that know what stageas are, are classfied as same as skylines

so no, not cheaper in most cases.

my suggestion - go third party Fire and theft with just cars

why are u paying 4k a yr for insurance?

at the start of the yr i was 18 and had no insurance history and i payed $2200 premium for a 1997 s2 gtst with mild mods and agreed value of 18k

only thing i can think of is u live in a suburb that has a high rate of thief

    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...

    • It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.
