yeah that was last year

i tried qbe but there online qoute system doesnt work.

Mines coming up so I doublechecked and it was actually down on last year.

With AAMI - $321 and my R33 is $328.

Somethings amiss with yours.

Insurance however with Shannons went up $200 with full NCB to $1800.

Strange, Just registered mine in december for $600 and Im Manual, Turbo, 22, male and live in a very bad area.. Go figure..

My insurance is 2890.. :P

I'm surprised at $2300 for the V35 coupe. And that was in Parramatta bro!!

hey skizo,

are you sure you can definatley get that price,or was it an online quote?

i did several online and got 3 quotes for approx 300 and 4 quotes for 600+

as soon as i ring them up to confirm the $300 quotes i get 'im sorry but as its an import it will be 600''

with all the insurers online qoute systems its impossible to select our model because its an import........

I had to pay it yesterday and I rang them up to confirm and it was $321. But I do have a sedan. I called them up when I got the car initially as that model wasn't in the online system yet.

I just tried to get an online quote from AAMI and something strange - I couldn't get a quote for any skylines!

I called up again today(no wait time, love it), just to doublecheck and the lady was very nice and explained to me everything. I am covered no worries eveything matches up. I asked for a quote on a 350GT Auto coupe. With all my details it was $328. I explained to her that you guys were getting quotes double that figure and she said the only variable that would affect the cost by that much is if the car was registered for work use.

She also said AAMI has some sort of relationship with Shannons as well as me having 2 cars with them, so I get a little bit of a discount there as well. But not that much. She also said, whether it's an import or not doesn't matter as much when it comes to CTP because the government sets rough price guidelines(it is a government initiative after all) which means they can't vary the prices as much as Full Comp.

:laugh:

I just got my greenslip (NSW) renewal from QBE and it's $623. I'm 28 also live in a good area and have max NCB. Car's a 98 Skyline (turbo/manual) and I just got a quote from Allianz over the phone for $639, wtf ?

I mentioned to the lady that you got quoted $331 and she said she can't tell why that is without looking at your quote to see what the difference is. I even mentioned that your car is an older model .. Any chance you can provide me with your Allianz quote # ? If not I understand.

Since when is CTP so friggin expensive ??? It's my first time renewing CTP on the skyline and all previous cars were never more than $400. $630 for greenslip is a bloody joke!!!

Just putting my 2 cents in

26 yr, v35 2003, "just car insurance" $1464 (sister company of Shanons)

and i live in the getto of Geraldton WA

we're talking about greenslip insurance (CTP/compulsory third party) which is needed to renew car rego, not the normal comprehensive insurance which comes on TOP. Maybe there's no CTP in WA or it might be included in your normal insurance like in the ACT.

Move to W.A. fellas... The government here was not stupid enough to privatize motor vehicle insurance, so you pay one price for greenslip + rego from the DPI (RTA equivalent).

Just got my renewal from the Gov, Will cost me $433.50 to Rego & insure my turbo skyline for 12 months. No 'pinkslip' inspection required unless rego lapses for more than three months.

Just before i left NSW i regoed my skyline then to the tune of about $1400 (610~ for greeny, 500~ for RTA & another ~300 for dodgy brothers blue slip)

Told many a horror story to Western Australians about the cost of Rego in NSW :):P

Just bought an 04 V35 350GT from a QLD'er, putting it into NSW $1300+ later...it's officially a NSW registered car. Greenslip itself was $356, not too shabby. Previous car, HSV R8 Clubsport, only $30 cheaper in terms of greenslip ...price you pay to have such a car :P

    • I'm looking for some real world experiences/feed back from anyone who has personally ran a EFR7670 with a 1.05 exhaust housing or a .83 I'm leaning towards the .83 because its a street car used mostly for spirited driving in the canyons roads. I"m not looking for big numbers on paper. I want a responsive powerband that will be very linear to 8000 rpm. I dont mind if power remains somewhat flat but dont want power to drop off on top. The turbo I've purchased is a 1.05, although the mounting flange T3 vs T4 and internal vs external waste gates are different on both housings, I not concern about swapping parts or making fabrication mods to get what I want. Based on some of the research I've done with chat gpt, the 1.05 housing seems to be the way to go with slightly more lag and future proofing for more mods but recommends .83 for best response/street car setup. AI doesn't have the same emotions as real people driving a GTR so I think you guys will be able to give me better feed back 😀   
    • Surely somebody has one in VIC. Have you asked at any shops?  Is this the yearly inspection or did you get a canary?
    • This is where I share pain with you, @Duncan. The move to change so many cooling system pieces to plastic is a killer! Plastic end tanks and a few plastic hose flanges on my car's fail after so little time.  Curious about the need for a bigger rad, is that just for long sessions in the summer or because the car generally needs more cooling?
    • So, that is it! It is a pretty expensive process with the ATF costing 50-100 per 5 litres, and a mechanic will probably charge plenty because they don't want to do it. Still, considering how dirty my fluid was at 120,000klm I think it would be worth doing more like every 80,000 to keep the trans happy, they are very expensive to replace. The job is not that hard if you have the specialist tools so you can save a bit of money and do it yourself!
    • OK, onto filling. So I don't really have any pics, but will describe the process as best I can. The USDM workshop manual also covers it from TM-285 onwards. First, make sure the drain plug (17mm) is snug. Not too tight yet because it is coming off again. Note it does have a copper washer that you could replace or anneal (heat up with a blow torch) to seal nicely. Remove the fill plug, which has an inhex (I think it was 6mm but didn't check). Then, screw in the fill fitting, making sure it has a suitable o-ring (mine came without but I think it is meant to be supplied). It is important that you only screw it in hand tight. I didn't get a good pic of it, but the fill plug leads to a tube about 70mm long inside the transmission. This sets the factory level for fluid in the trans (above the join line for the pan!) and will take about 3l to fill. You then need to connect your fluid pump to the fitting via a hose, and pump in whatever amount of fluid you removed (maybe 3 litres, in my case 7 litres). If you put in more than 3l, it will spill out when you remove the fitting, so do quickly and with a drain pan underneath. Once you have pumped in the required amount of clean ATF, you start the engine and run it for 3 minutes to let the fluid circulate. Don't run it longer and if possible check the fluid temp is under 40oC (Ecutek shows Auto Trans Fluid temp now, or you could use an infrared temp gun on the bottom of the pan). The manual stresses the bit about fluid temperature because it expands when hot an might result in an underfil. So from here, the factory manual says to do the "spill and fill" again, and I did. That is, put an oil pan under the drain plug and undo it with a 17mm spanner, then watch your expensive fluid fall back out again, you should get about 3 litres.  Then, put the drain plug back in, pump 3 litres back in through the fill plug with the fitting and pump, disconnect the fill fitting and replace the fill plug, start the car and run for another 3 minutes (making sure the temp is still under 40oC). The manual then asks for a 3rd "spill and fill" just like above. I also did that and so had put 13l in by now.  This time they want you to keep the engine running and run the transmission through R and D (I hope the wheels are still off the ground!) for a while, and allow the trans temp to get to 40oC, then engine off. Finally, back under the car and undo the fill plug to let the overfill drain out; it will stop running when fluid is at the top of the levelling tube. According to the factory, that is job done! Post that, I reconnected the fill fitting and pumped in an extra 0.5l. AMS says 1.5l overfill is safe, but I started with less to see how it goes, I will add another 1.0 litres later if I'm still not happy with the hot shifts.
