28, R34GTT, $35,000 cover, ~$1200 premium, Shannons, Parked in garages at work and home in relatively nice areas, classed as moderately modified by Shannon's. I am up for a price rise after the next set of mods which will take me into the "heavily" modified class.

Being old and rating 1 helps :thumbsup:

Yeah rating 1 does help. You can secure it with just cars.

I'm 21, and my R34 GTR is insured for $53,000 and i paid exactly $1220 full comprehensive. I'm with Just Cars insurance. They put me on their highest rating which is a rating 5. it was originally gonna be $1185 but for an extra $35 dollars, if i ever have an accident at my fault, my rating does not go down. Insurance varies from place to place. If you were living in a big city then they would definitely be ass raping you for insurance. Having an accident record would definitely make you pay higher for insurance too.

Wow.. you win mate! That is the best age to car to insurance ratio I have ever seen. :)

yep. insurance is hella expensive. especially if you're under 25.

just car confidently quoted me $4000.

why should they be anything but confident?

no other insurer wants to touch an import.

insurance for the skyline is highly dependent on the suburb you live in. i.e there is no point comparing a SA, NT premium to a sydney premium. Unfortunately sydney premiums are high in comparison (generally speaking).

When you hit 25, it goes down, but drive a performance car, be prepared to pay a price for it.

and yes, brace yourself, it may go up, as mine did, and I am 28.

they are covering a NON TURBO Supra for $55,000???? :domokun:

I cant imagine a non turbo Supra being worth $55,000. Oh well, for their sake I hope it isnt written off.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
