just cars are the only insurer that would look at me really.

i was a real dumb flamin mongrel on my p's. but since i got my licence back in november i havent been pulled over yet and have been waved thru a few booze buses as well so i guess im doing something right lol.

How do you get it that cheap. I've never lost my licence, I got my full licence, my record is like 100% n I have like 50-60% no claim bonus and they still charge me like $ 2000 for my R34 :down:

Depends on the area you live in. You're talking to someone in the industry that has full no claim discount plus staff discounting :(

As above I can answer General Questions.

Simon U lucky lucky man :laughing-smiley-014:

There is one more thing i would like to know.. Suppose i buy the car and in december i go back to my home country for 2 months and the car is parked in Uni here without anyone starting it... Will i have problems with the car when i come back and start it after 2 months??

I have a fairly standard R34 GT-T.

Paying $1186 with just cars full comp. I have adjusted my excess so if i need to make a claim, i'm looking at big money ($3800). Pretty happy with the price

Most likely because if you leave it at uni parking for 2 months there's a good chance it will get stolen within the first week. To be honest, it really doesn't sound to me like you're ready to own a skyline, no offence.

What excess you choose is a big decider on premiums too :D

Zavier - If you are going away for 2 months I recommend you put it in a storage shed for the 2 months... they are like what 10-25 bucks a week...

Just kepp it with me n I'll look after it, I'll make sure it's been raced at least once a week so the battery wont die :) lol

Wow, suddenly my insurance seems awfully cheap compared to what some of you guys are paying! I'm 25, near perfect driving record and I pay 580 a year i think it is for my 34 gtt with basic mods. Thats with upping the excess to 1200 bucks from 400 i think it was. With the minimum excess my premium would have been around 950.

    • 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.
