Shes protected her no claim bonus whichshe has recently fudged thru a claim anyway (glad she was first to do that and not me) ..... im 30% driver .... i told a few littl wspeding fine white lies nothing too major - fessed up to a few of them which bumped the excess up a little .... but basically they know its my car .... lady when she rang me even commented it was a nice car for a 19yr old to have .... there is no reason it should be voided if i prang it.

Paragon whats unlimited 3rd party? ive never heard of it before but sounds very interesting

3rd party is basically anything that happens to any other persons car will get fixed if your car gets in a crash... if the other person had insurance as well and you both were in the wrong or both were in the right then he will fix your car, 3rd party will usually cover theft and fire as well.

Buy a $100 bomb insurce it full comp for 100-200 per year and leave it off the road until you pull the skyline off the road to rip the motor out slap a RB30 bottom end in there with shot peened rods, forged pistons and fully balanced. Slap the mildly worked RB25DET head back on it with slightly bigger cams & bigger injectors. Both a GT30 on the side, tune the PowerFC to suit and off you go.. :rolleyes:

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
