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..

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
