+ 1 for just cars

i think shannons are assholes i rang them up and apparently they dont insure my type of vechial beacuse its an import. there add is bull sh@t i am a car inthusiast but apparently u have to love falcodores to be an aussie inthusiast.

anyway rating 5 1800

rating

something funny i found was that suncorp would not insure my V35 skyline because I am 24 and not 25. Even though its not a turbo... bunch of tards

I found that Just cars was best for my 180sx but I only did 3rd party cus full comp was stupid, For the V35 I found NRMA to be the best

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...

Did you max the excess out?

I was quoted something like $2250 with an excess of $500. I upped the excess to $3000 and my premium dropped to like $1000.

yeah im getting my R34 4 door N/A skyline in april this year im 25 [ 26 in july ] there are no mods to it, im still on red P's though but going for greens very shortly [ ive been super lazy, and having kids just taking up money/ time ] ive had my reds for a few years, long enough to have had my greens and be off them, but i dont know who to insure with, i have a clean driving record and the insurance thread i read before pretty much told me each person/car is different so insurance will be different for each person,

Would my P plates matter too much if it goes by years driving? And is anyone here from NSW with a 4 door R34, that had it fully insured, how much were u roughly looking at?

thanks for any help.

Your best bet is to call around then compare the prices and excesses as I did.

Having your p's counts as holding a licence so its included as years driving. L's doesnt as its a permit.

No harm in getting a few quotes!

Too true, out of curiosity what did u end up paying?

Im paying $1,100 at H2P. I am now covered for $23,000

Prior to that I was with Just Car paying the around $1,200 and only being covered for $14,000. When I got my renewal form they dropped the price by $100 but I have noticed they also had lessend the value to $13,000 without consulting me.

I have fully looked at both and in my situation I am waaaay better off with H2P. Excesses are about the same, H2P a little less and I can pay by the month without any extra charge which is very useful.

I guess everyones situation is different but for me, H2P was a clear winner.

(I just turned 22 and have had 2 speeding fines but no pervious claims)

I'm with Famous insurance for my R34 GTT. Got a quote from Just Car of $3500! Get ****ed! That was with their bs excesses too. Anyways I only pay $2500 with famous and with a lot more reasonable excesses. Works out to be around only $1000 for the excesses with them whereas Just Car was $2500+.

That's also with my record which isn't the cleanest. I'm also 22. Helps if you have in insurance broker too.

I went JUSTCAR found them to be the cheapest and most competative.

i 19 clean driving record non turbo R33 S2 and for full comp car valued at 13350 with rims system body kit and all basic extra's i payed $2300 on a RATEING 5 which saved me about $600 and i also choosed they pay more to get less premium which saves me 500 on my premium for only $200 or sumthing like that. but i called shannons and they said that they wouldnt insure me and that if they did my excess would be like $5000 and thats the same with RACV which was $5000 excess and valued at $4500 for the car which is way less then what its worth. so yeh my 2 cents is JUSTCAR all the way

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
