Heard from JustCar today, $4000 damage. Should be fixed in 2 weeks! Wooohoooo! Not as bad as i thought, suspension, alloys, tyres, panel and one tail light to fix. Happy times.

good to hear, hope they do a good job on it for you. if u see anything your not happy with then tell them and your insurance company and get them to fix it again.

$4k thats lucky, I would imagine losing a car you love because it is deemed a "write off" would be a heart break.

And kudos to you for having comprehensive insurance :P

Whats is your excess? that can be a killer!

Thanks everyone! Excess is $400. Thank God i opted for the "pay extra $35 to get rating one protection". 12 days to go and counting, gonna be a long 12 days.

Depends who you are with, 50% for JustCars

justcars are 50%!? then how did my friend get it repaired (at their cost of $13000) and didn't get it written off. BTW his car is a 98 gtt r34, shoulda been insured for 20-21k as it was bought at that price range. Also, i been told it was 75%

  • 2 weeks later...

JustCars Just told me my car will take another week to repair. I am both angry and depressed. It's been the longest two weeks so far, now they move the goal posts again. I see Skylines everyday and i get more upset because i don't have mine. Is there a Skylines anonymous or some sort of group therapy, i need help.

thanks not too bad tho, a mate of mine had a lady run up his arse about 10 weeks ago and it still has not gone in for repair yet...

NRMA is the insurance company, slowest service ive ever seen... Its an modern aussie car too, so not like the parts are hard to get...

I keep telling him to take his business to suncorp cause like the tv ad says if its drivable 90% are fixed within a week...

drove my skyline for the first time in two weeks yesterday. haven't had time up until then

and holding with my current luck, the one time it has been out in two weeks, a woman in a pulsar merged lanes straight into me....

but, surprisingly (with the kind of luck i have been having), the only visible damage to my car was some slight rubber loss on the front tyre. because my front wheels are too fat for my front guards, they stick out a bit, so they managed to keep her car away from my pannels. she on the other hand, has massive scratches from my tyre/rim all down her passenger side door. looks like somebody tried to wax her car door with steel wool.

was quite happy with the outcome.

i lost a car like that once...my first R33, it had a buggered door and bonnet i got my 23k some one else boght the 'wreck' and fixed it i bought it back for 18.5k woot same car plus a couple k in my pocket.

suncorp had my skyline repaired and back on the road after we got rear ended in 4 days (4 days after we took it to the inspection centre)

we were pretty happy with that

admittedly the damage wasnt too bad, but it was still painted and had a rear bumper and supports underneath that replaced

I got my car back today! Woohooo! Except they didn't paint the front bar, coz it was not on the list for repair! Fu@# me, i said, surely you'd notice a big grey scrape 30cm wide and 50cm long where white paint used to be? Nevermind, she drives like a dream and i am happy again. Will get bar painted in the future, don't wanna give them my car for a while again.

    • Yes the gear for the R33/34 is different, it is red and has a different number of teeth. My part didn't come with that gear though, so I don't know how many teeth are on the red one. You'd have to reuse the 260RS/R33 gear, as long as it's not destroyed.   Haha, as unfortunate as that might be it was working fine for about the first 1500km I've had the car for now.
    • Update all   thanks to the workshop manual, it lead me back to checking fuses as mentioned central locking and door open lights worked when acc was switched on. diagram attached shows two points of power 1. ACC and 2.  Batt with the later being fused (#28) I did check the fuses using a multimeter but I must have stuffed that up also. Went back and checked the batt fuse in interior fuse box and you wouldn’t believe it… a blown fuse. replaced fuse and everything is now working as it should including the climate control   thank you all with your positive insight and knowledge.    
    • Where is the warning "That this thread is super old"   I just went into a 5 year old thread, went to do a reply, and couldn't see anywhere obvious a warning of it being super old
    • Duncan is correct. Pitwork (and Toyota's own cheap brand "Drive Joy") were primarily created as brands to sell other manufacturers car parts. It would be weird if Nissan sold parts for Toyota vehicles with a Nissan logo on it, so they created Pitwork to sell parts for other brans Toyota, Honda etc. They are not the same as Nissan genuine parts, although they *do* meet Nissan's standards for replacement parts. They aren't supposed to be a substitute for genuine parts, but a cheaper alternative that is better than Ebay fake parts from you-know-where.
