...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

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
