Insurance?

Only third party I'm afraid. Just Jpa didn't give me the option of paying the 3 grand full comp off on a monthly basis, so paid the $450-ish third party all in one go.

look into buying a new bonnet first as it may well turn out a bunch cheaper than painting it

Really? I've never seen anyone selling a pearl black bonnet though...

dont bother mate...if you are worried about those stone chips just touch them up with a black pen or even some nail polish.....we do it when you come back maybe..

i think it may of had black wax in them...you get it at supercheap....turtle wax comes in a range of colours...

its not worth respraying or buying a new one..save cash for better things in life....;)

Someone keyed my bonnet while the car was sitting just in my sister's driveway tonight. Probably some drunk lowlifes at the party next door. On the upside, now I have more motivation to fix the paint chips in the bonnet. :(

oh..just saw this.....motherf**kers.. \

you're bringing it around in a week or 2 anyway yeah, I have some paint left, might be enough to patch it up..wont be enough to respray the whole bonnet though but I can do that if you want.....I dare say it will be cheaper than buying new bonnet and new paint will look better than a second hand bonnet anyway ;)

Yep, under 25, P-plater, imported car, hence, Just jap ream me for money. Third party is $120 more per year for the 34 than the 31 too.

#@ARTZ Message me how much you think it will cost, I have crappy pics I can send you, but the scratches cover almost the same area the paint chips do; that is, they're in the same place, pretty much.

pix me...will be about same price as a cheap second hand bonnet....which would only have stone chips in it anyway...plus guarenteed no swirls with new paint ;)

Hopefully we have enough paint left to fix it so don't have to buy more..

Tis why you don't have yourself as listed driver, then pay excess for unlisted driver which is usually less anyhow. It was for the 4 door. RS will probably be insured just under my name though cus even full comp is still <1k. Dem aus del feels.

    • Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
    • 98 r34 gtt Been rocking my latest setup and car running like never before. Have put a good 200 miles on it since all the latest changes and additions. everything is dialed in and have been driving it a bunch.   However, all a sudden last weekend as soon as I pushed throttle passed 4k and the engine stumbles, (slow or fast acceleration) hesitates and doesn’t go above 4100 or so, like a misfire. Everything else seems fine. I had a “good” set of coil packs that I removed from car when I first got it when I changed them over to new coils. I swapped out current ones for those, but no change. I also changed the plugs, no change. Seems to rev over 4 when out of gear with no load just fine no “misfire”, but as soon as its in gear with a load of any kind, it “misfires” as soon as rpm drop back below 4 k it runs perfectly, smooth, starts, restarts and drives fine as long as I keep it below 4 k while in gear. All readings look fine, no CEL   Any idea as to what could all a sudden cause an issue when pushing rpms passed 4 k?
    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.
