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!

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

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
