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.

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
