What do you pay for your insurance and where?

Really looking for some under 20's here.

Looking for a first car, i would put it in my dads name, 59yrs old gold license 60% no claim bonus but im finding it extremely difficult to get a quote for most of the cars im looking at. ($10k)

R32 gtst

S13 ca18det/sr20det

laser tx3 4wd turbo

(+ more placid cars i can get insurance for)

So what do/did you pay?

;)

If his post is rubbish why bother answering it. He asked a simple f***ing question. No need to be a smart arse

:confused: i answered his post because someone else would have said exactly the same thing i did.

see the next post below mine!

Ignore them.

Im 22 f in melb and have a 33 gtst (I know I know completely dif to you) but I pay about $2200 a year full comp.

My cousin is 20 with a 32 gts (note GTS - no turbo) and pays approx $3300 full comp in his own name.

Its not cheap. Good luck.

well, this q does come up all the time, which is why we tried to do an FAQ for it. I'd be happy to add any additions to it.

I just did a search for insurance in just the automotive section, returned 350 threads.http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/se...rder=descending

duncan is right .. insurance comes up so much it gets old .. and people just don't do a simple search ... in fact i'm sure insurance ... and the "how much are u payin for insurance and who from" is the most common thread newbies write ... besides the "welcome to yesterday" topic type thread :D

Sorry dudes, i didnt search but i looked through a couple of pages of posts and didnt see anything where people were listing their insurance so i thought i was safe.. guess not :D

Admins feel free to close/delete this thread :D

ps. Decided insurance would be too much (and most places wont insure me even only listed as a nominated driver) so im just going to let me dad 'purchase' the car and 'borrow' it 'every now and then' ;)

Don't mean to be rude......sorry this, sorry that. Guys you are being rude.....things change all the time....I don't see any prob in updating a topic. Give the guy a break!

Sovereign....My advice is to....

a. get a car you can afford to insure, and thus build up your own no claim bonus. or

b. get an import, bite the bullet and fork out for the inurance, and again build that no claim bonus.

There are no shortcuts in life, and nothing is free and easy. You will get no where real fast having the car insured/owned by your father. This is exactly what I would advise my kids to do.

Best of luck whichever way you go.

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
