Why are people such assholes when it comes to accidents and insurance? I've waited patiently for the other party to organise insurance and obtained a quote estimate for my car which they are saying is "too high" (why does that matter? The cost is going to be more than their excess so they'll have to pay insurance anyway) and they are checking with another panel beater.

Not once have I received a "sorry for damaging your car" since my car is in mint condition :( If I don't receive a response from them tomorrow then all hell is going to break loose.

never give a f**k about other people in insurance claims, worst thing you can do tbh

just get your insurance to chase them around for it and get what you can from the claim

Yeah, tomorrow is the absolute deadline to see what they will do. I only have 3rd party fire and theft, so they are hopeless when it comes to these things. He lives an hour away from me, so even if his "friend" panel beater (which I WON'T go to) gets a cheaper quote there is no way in hell I'm driving down there. It's inconvenient enough I won't have my car for a few weeks, which the panel beater near me offers a courtesy car as well.

If you got all the guys details and insurance company get one of those lawyers where you just fill in a one page form they do the rest costs you nothing they get payment from the insurance company I think

I did it twice was easy as

Hmm, which one did you go through? I have insurance and JustCar covers up to $3,000 for uninsured damage (assuming they don't want to go through insurance) which I "think" will cover me, hopefully I won't have to pay any excess for that and JustCar takes care of it (which is their job).

Also curious on this? Gf's bestie got hit by some fob woman and now her husband is refusing to make an insurance claim, this could help a lot.

I've had it when a motorbike ran into the evo, just contact your insurance company and tell them what happened they will pay you out and then chase up the person at fault (sort of like a debt agency) they have a certain amount they can give you, think justcar was $3500

meh I've done same.

some-one hits you

you can call your insurance company and they take care of it.

note you will have to your use their repair company not your choice.

but other than that so easy.

last 2 ppl that hit me, i've been with AAMI

I call them they get me to drop car next day

chauffeur car back to work.

car fin 4-5 working days later

chauffeur car picks me up from work

collect car.

happy

or if you not sure about crap drop it off at one of those sheen place that claim to take care of everything

plus give your a crappy getz to drive around

If you're not at fault you're allowed to choose your own repair company (spoke to the panel beaters who told me the situation). It's an inconvenience for me having to get my car repaired, so no way am I going to one outside my suburb.

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
