...and that is any of your business or concern how?

You're a f*king moron.

I'm just trying to help a young kid out before he is just another thread starter about yet another uninsured skyline being stolen.

I'm yet to see one thread on here that says.

:rofl: skyline stolen from X, but it's all good.

I had it insured for agreed value of $18K

because everyone takes the "it' not going to happen to me.. " approach.

I just can't believe that you can say that in todays state of affairs.

click search and type in STOLEN.

have a look at the dates the hundreds of threads that come up have on them.

you paid $12K for the skyline.

"WHEN" someone steals it from you, you will get back $2500 "AFTER" you have paid your exess of what? $1K for a 21 year old?

seriously mate.

It's a nice looking car.

alarm etc will do f*k all when some c**t with a bat taps on your window.

ye i understand. Just where did u get $2500 from? Im covered for $10000 with just cars, so i would get $9000 back. Thats wat im lead to believe.

I ran out of those you sonofabitch...

sorry, sorry..

Mark - have a look in this here mirror...

Be careful mate.

Perhaps look at getting your name off your profile too.

Double check your excess mate,i just re-insured mine last week and theres new additions to excess

Mines a 1993. The full information on the insurance should be in my letterbox soon, but im fairly certain she said its insured for $10000, excess if car stolen - $1200, excess if involved in a crash, etc - $1800

Just thought i should share some things ive been working on in the interior. Abit flashy, but not too bright in real life. Its bayside blue base coat colour.

Basically i completely reshaped the centre surround and done a pod for the boost gauge from scratch. All done with fibreglass and body filler.

Comments, opinions???

Hiya,

Can I suggest that when you can, insure the car comprehensively; but get an 'AGREED VALUE' policy rather than 'market value'.

Insurance companies have a nasty habit of paying out as little as they can - NO JOKE!

If you car did get stolen, what value do you think the company would place on your wheels mate?

i) I think you've got a nice car with good value but...

ii) The insurance Co. would give you little change of $12K!

Don't believe me! Ask the Insurance Co. that 'leading question'!

You'll Sleep Better. Terry

    • You're going to miss not worrying about rust in the strut towers like the Skyline shitboxes out there
    • A few little updates that weren't filmed due to not taking long to do or not interesting enough for their own video. My new K&N Air Filter arrived, I went with an RU-4180 which matched the dimensions of the universal cone filter the car originally had.  The battery had gone flat, while that was charging I tidied up the spaghetti wiring at the bulk head and down the sides of the engine Next job was to swap the stereo The Kenwood harness had the female ISO plugs cut off and the male ISO plugs cut off the adaptor loom and joined with bullet connectors. I ordered in a repair loom through work and re-did it all. New Kenwood unit installed (Android Auto, DAB, Bluetooth, Reverse Camera) The bonnet/hood gas struts have been poor since collecting the car. I couldn't find any suitable replacements locally so took a chance on a pair from AliExpress.  The originals don't use a retaining clip to secure the cup onto the ball fixture, would explain why I struggled for 10-15mins trying to pry off the cups. The ball fixtures unscrew using a 12mm spanner, new ones are the same size. Sadly no photo of them fitted, you're not missing much lol The dished Momo steering wheel got replaced with my Momo Tuner, turns out I ordered counter sunk bolts for the horn trim ring (like they normally are for the steering wheel) instead of allen cap (flat seat)  A terrible photo of a Quaife style gear shift knob I've had stashed in my tool box for many years after purchasing the incorrect thread size (I can see a pattern emerging with ordering incorrect parts...) Also threw in a cup holder and a (empty) Boss Coffee can, because why not  
    • GT-R clearly the better choice! The 300 is certainly not insaly fast but has a decent amount of poke. Does a nice little drift around the corners with a decent amount of throttle. It's VERY predictable in a slide too.  Feels so progressive! People probably presume there's a 25 year old driving it based on my behaviour this week! 🤣
    • Yeah Jap import. Fairlady Z then! I'm a bit the same.  They've been on my radar for a fair while but then just impulsively decided to buy one!  Was going to just buy an NA and add turbos to it later but decided to save the f'ing around and just buy the turbo version. 
    • Thanks mate, well done to you too! Yeah not looking forward to doing any major work to it!
