hey

im with just cars and i want to install a fmic on my 34 but was wondering will they accept it since i have to make a hole under the battery to fit the piping?

i called them up this morning and told them what i planned on doing but they told me they didnt know and i would have to talk to the pits or something.

anyone know if they will accept it?

Why dont u get a stealth FMIC?

ARC makes them

basically both pipes use the orginal route as the SMIC.

no need to cut any holes.

:D

ive got a stealth kit on my car. Easier to install as well.. :)

You can insure fmic with JustCars, I have, they'll just tell you it will cost $xx extra on to your premium which you will have to pay within 14 days else they can terminate your insurance policy. They also seemed to have changed their opinion on turbo timers because that's on the list too.

Maybe they have changed, but when I insured with them (and still am) they allowed for unlimited modifications. Only thing they were iffy about was special paint.

The only time the premiums went up was when i had installed new stuff and wanted to increase the total amount my car is is insured for....

Better of just calling them...

The OP is asking specifically if the fact he has to cut a hole will affect his insurance.

He rang Just Cars, they didn't know what he was talking about and referred him to the pits (Vehicle Licensing).

Mate, you already have your answer - you told them you needed to do something dodgy to fit it so now, I would imagine, they will make you get it inspected..

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
