Try H2P insurance, underwritten by RAA .

$890 fullcomp with mods. Im 35 but not sure what my rating is .

It will depend on the suburb that you live , your age , speeding fines, where it is parked, amout of K's that you do and

if it is alarmed (which it will).

good luck

Just Cars have done well by me

I have to say the same.

My insurance with Just Cars was going to be 1300+, but they rang me back to say I can be classed as a rating one, because I had allready insured another car before. It got dropped to 950. so it was quite nice of them :D

+1 for Just Cars - they're even cheaper now with their 'AD-just' scheme thing... if you dont plan to crash!

LOL, I dont think anyone ever plans to crash. If we didnt plan to crash, we wouldnt need insurance, right? Sometimes accidents happen, and the last thing you want is some $1-2k excess which just makes you feel worse.

Anyway, Im with Shannons:

27yo, rating one for life, no speeding fines in the last 5 years and my premium is ~1000 a year from memory for R33 GTS-t with mods. Excess is only $400 and have choice of repairer and first right to wreck in worst case scenario.

Just Car $1150 rating 1 - I'm 26, and my wife is 23 (JCI put the youngest driver as the policy holder).

Just Car do have higher excesses but usually lower premiums and lower requirements than all other insurers I know.

I've tried calling shannons 3 times and each time they've told me where to go (not an "enthusiast" or some crap) so I just returned the compliment. Not going to waste my time with them again. What happens to all you guys insured with Shannons when it comes to make a claim and they turn around and give you the "you're not an enthusiast" dribble.

I dont know too many people who own a modified Nissan Stagea who aren't an enthusiast about their car. I've been to cruises, an sau photoshoot, and have spent way too much money modifying the car but apparently its just not enough to rank in the shannons elite. Yet my brother who used to own a ford xr wagon with exhaust was able to insure that car with them no worries...go figure.

Any company that wants to turn away good customers is not one that I want to deal with...

I've had no claims or fines either btw...very clean record (touch wood) :w00t:

Anyways, +1 for JustCar. Never made a claim so unfortunately I cant comment on that...but I'm with them becuase of how easy they are to deal with. They dont need to know where the car is parked during the day, just the basic details and thats all. Other insurers ask way too many questions IMO, makes me nervous about what they will ask in a claim....say the car was broken into and I happened to be parked in a bad spot during the day that I hadn't told them about when I signed up?

Comes down to who you can trust I guess. fingers crossed. :)

    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • 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.
