Bwhahah You guys have it easy I pay about 3000 a year 22 YO clean history, had the ride for 1.5 years now

Btw to the bloke in slurry hills your insurance is going to be massive. Hopefully you have a garage hey.

Oh mines mildly modded soon be more-modded? can i tell the insurance company that? lol

GIO custom car insurance, the policy is way better than any of the carinsurance like shannons where u cant drive anywhere, just look at it parked in a garage with a car cover made of kevlar so even dust cant break into it.

I must add I live in a very bad crime rate area, but slurry hills is worse.. weird.

Hey mate,

Did you try Justcars? Im 21 with the same car as you (probably minus the mods) but I have a flawed history with speeding (damn lane cove tunnel...i was OVERTAKING!) and a claim (...someone stopped in front on me suddenly at like 50km :D ). But yeh, Im paying around 2k insurance. (the excess is a bit over the top). It just seems 3k is a bit expensive for someone with a clean history.

Might be the crime rate area, but yeh. The more money you save on insurance, the more money you have to mod! :D

There is alot of different things that go into the cost of it all.

Sometimes it can come down to where u live.

Mate sadly with insurance ocmpanies realising that the whole parents name thing is a sham and that the kids are driving the cars most of the time, the insurance covers the cost of the lowest age driver, therefore if you really do drive that car insurance qoute of 3600 covers that cost for them.

I paid something like that in my first year in my name and after i fked up my car my insurance went through the roof!!!! i was paying something like 5000 for one year...and i shat myself.

thats the lesson you get though, its gradually fallign im around 2500-3000 now like mentioned in the above post, hopefully it drops soon since i have had a clean record/age increase/getting off p's.

Try Ansfa (however you spell it) they give you better agreed value etc etc than AAMI just car blah blah, (just car is the worst for p platers) Try them, you should drop to around 3000 id say.

my quick quote with GF included was about $1400

goth them to do a propper quote

Car is completely stock

1 male 24 (now 25) clean record (drives > 50%)

1 female 22 clean record (drives <50%)

bopth work for gov and drive their cars

Car is garaged

together we also own 3 other cars all which are insured and currently registered

agreed to insure the car for what i paid ($10 500)

and it was sucked down to $880 for the first year and additional excess is bumped up an extra $400 - Fully Comp

    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car.
