What do you do to get a premium like that? Neither myself or my friend (who owns an imported MR2 GT-T) can get below $1800 a year with JCI.

Do you have any traffic fines like speeding or neg driving? i think that's what's hurting me, i was a bit of a rebel when i started driving.

I have never had a speeding fine or any other kind of traffic violation fine other than a parking ticket. I had one small fender bender minor acco which apparently made zero difference to the premium. I don't drive 5k's under the limit or anything but I also don't speed excessively.

I guess I've just been lucky.

When I first got the insurance with JCI I was 23 and it was just over 1k pa. Compared to skylines/soarers which were ~1500 its pretty cheap, it was one small reason I chose a Stagea over other imports.

It must be location. when I got my R33 in 2003, i couldn't get full comp for less than $4000 with JCI. it's slowly come down since then, but it's still $1800 for me now in my Stagea. I think speeding fines just determine whether or not a company wants to insure you rather than how much your premium will be. All will be revealed on the 25th when I turn 25 and can start enjoying some cheaper insurance premius.

Isurance? Shannons.

M35 250t RS Four V

Stock (but factory LOADED)

$25,000

Age: 30

Driving Record: 2 Speeding Fines (last 5 years)

Is that insured as a daily drive or only weekend use?

Do you have a garage to park you car in?

These are the things that made my insurance expensive!

GIO Custom Car Insurance x2

$87 a month on $15k modd'ed series 1. Plus I live in a dodgy area on central coast, NSW !! Daily driver, not needed to be garaged or guarded by attack dogs etc :banana:

my greenslip with NRMA was only $480

Can I ask again for GIO Custom Car Insurance's contact number?

2nd that for GIO custom Insurance ph number. Web page does not load and not listed in the white pages. Is this a real company? rates seem too good to be true!!!

I am with shannons as well, with 3 cars and house and contents on 65% no claim 35 yr old multi poicy discounts

My S2 with large list of mods is covered $25000 yearly policy $1208

So I rang them to see if they could do better, I changed it to being driven 1-2 days week, instead of daily use, new policy price $992 yr

I could reduce it more as the car only gets driven once a month.

Coparts41, is yours for daily use?

yep the good wife drives it most days, i have a company car so i can only have it to play.

Terminal is your car listed as secure garaged?

Mine is so that will perhaps reduce the premium.

Yeah, its secure garaged. it has a list of mods as long as a kevin rudds 'sorry' speech though, so that might be one reason.

On the topic of insurance, who's got what quote for a greenslip? i'm hunting around to see who does the cheaper greeny and AAMI is leading the charge so far at $508. i'm yet to try Allianz though.

Ian, try hitting greenslips.com.au to get a comparison. That should give you a few options and display them all together so you can compare.

me 3rd... I can't find them either??

try www.gio.com.au

It lists stagea's and mods.

I tried to enter my car with sydney postcode, but I had too many mods so the online quote would not give answer without them phoning me.

Can not get GIO in queensland. It flicks you to Suncorp.

Doesn't look like they are covering the M35 yet. It is not on the list. The stagea is only there for models prior to 2001.

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
