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.

    • 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.  
    • 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       
    • 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).
