Hey guys before you tell me there is already a topic for insurance I know I read the whole thing it didnt help. What I was wondering is where NA people have gone for there skyline. Is it still classed as performance? Like the turbo ones? I'm on my P's so any quote I get is going to be pretty big for Compo. I was just wondering what kinda quotes other P platers had gotten and from where.

I went to JustCar and they quoted my mum around 850; so yeah - Try them...

Just Car. It's still classified as an import, so you pay around $1000 in vehicle excess in addition to other excesses.

In Brisbane I found it to be couple hundred dollars less than a factory turbo skyline.

:blush: Where are you trying to get it insured? My first year with JustCar based on bit over a year of being on my provisional licence, was $1581 for my N/A Skyline. About $1680 after doing suspension, wheels, stereo brakes etc.. then after 1s year with them it dropped to $1275. Now I think it's around $1350 a year after doing turbo conversion. I'm 22 as well for a couple of more months, so still under 25. $4k a year for insurance is just mental! I know that in Brisbane yeah it's cheaper, but even in NSW I don't think it gets that high...

well i think its cause i had lost my liscense on my l's when i had my motorbike. just cars said it will drop heaps this year when i insure it again with them, i wasn't pissed of with the price i just payed it, the 180 was worked and had top stuff in it. just ring around places mate but i will go with just cars they are honest and will look after you...

i pay 2160 per year with custom cars (GIO) in monthly installments of $198. at the time worked a bit better for me as i couldnt afford $2k up front in one hit which is what just cars wanted me to do. mind you at the time i was 17 and on my Ls and had just bought my car so i was broke hardcore >_<. just car and custom cars were the only two i could find that would even bother considering me.

will re-evaluate this year tho :bunny: along with custom plates. aiming to keep my driving record as clean as possible to reduce my excess

I got an online quote from just car for a 5000$ r32 and they want 2412$ a year for comprehensive. Is that right for 17? Cas if it is, theres no way thats worth it.

had mods done?

mods will push up the price a bit. also because your 17 your a high risk, and the car would be classed as a high performance grey import, hence your screwed >_<

My quote for JustCars was around the $2500 mark for an 18 yr old but I only just got my P's so thats why the quote is high. With JustCars they ask how long you've had your license for, now i'm assuming that means your P's as it's the first proper license? So how do you answer that question if your still on your L's? My sister wants to insure her car but is still on her L's.

I think I might just spend the $500 and get Third Party F&T for now until my rating improves as I don't drive my car like a hoon and I *fingers crossed* won't do something to write off my car. And then once my rating improves i'll get compo and hopefully by then my car will look nicer too :)

true enough, but there are some real dickheads on the roads. if they hit you or your in an accident caused by them, your still screwed

ive been registered with just car for 2 years now..Im 19 turning 20 this year and when i first got my quote for the 4 door 34 it was ridiculous.. they tried charging me more because it wasnt on there list that they can come in 4 door.. unfortunatly as much as they charge they beat any other insurer from who ive got quotes from. AAMI FULL COMP 3.5k...... YEAH GET F***ED

and also yes its classed as a 'sports car' i tried saying mine was a japanese family car LOL

Yea i'm worried bout not having compo but in my opinion i'd be better off putting the 2.5k+ away into my bank account and save it for a rainy say rather than hand it over for "possibly" no reason to an insurance company. I know this is what your always gonna do insure "in case shit" but when it's 2.5k it seems kinda pointless... especially when the car is stock at the moment and not really hard to replace.

I'm insured with Shannons and I pay by the month they were cheeper than Just Car and GIO, I then got a discoumt because I added my daily drive [94 Magna 3rd party]. Then the daughter got her car I just added it to my other 2, so in the end all 3 car are with shannons and it cost me $99/ month,

The Skyline is full comp the others are 3rd party

i got my r34 insured with shannons, originally had her with H2P here in adelaide but ended up having quite a few issues with them.

but im happy with my policy and what the 34 is insured for...........at least i know with shannons everything is covered and not like my previous insurer where they could pick and choose what they wanted to pay out if anything happened.

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
