Hi all,

but my parents are concered about insurance cost. Thanks!!!

As they should be... how old are you?

It will most probably be high... $2500+ for full comp., assuming you are 20 or so?

Advice here is fine, but ringing up a few companies and getting a quote is far better...

Justcars: 13 13 26

Young and Cool: 1300 307 066

Unique Cars: 1800651014

I rang all the companies, justcars was the best for me. There's also an insurance advice line who will give you all the places to ring... i found it on sau, but can't find it at the moment... anyone else?

You may conclude that full comp insurance is not worth it when, for example 5 years of insurance dollars outweighs the cost of the car.

Good luck... keep it to the track :P

edit: also, there's loads of discussion on these forums about insurance... check out the DIY section.... this thread: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...ead.php?t=17692

Depends you're 19 so most people won't touch you if you own a turbo.

Just Cars quoted me $5000 a year for an under 25 with a R32 GT-R, with 2 HKS 2510 turbos.

I'm not sure if other insurance companies take into account your modifications to your car.

Third Party would usually be under a grand, but that only covers theft, fire and other peoples cars in crashes.

Full Comprehensive is the lot, and is also alot more expensive.

i don't think an r34 NA would get a cheaper quote than an r32 gtst because of the prices of the cars... ticking the turbo box for the r32 gtst... approx $15k VS not ticking the turbo box for the r34 approx $30k ... insurance companies' pay out 15 vs 30

you get my point :)

it makes a difference... but i don't think you'll find it below $3000 unfortunately.

maybe if: r32 gtst, stock, safe garage, alarm, never park on street, live in a low risk area... all the things they tick and cross on the good side will get it down a lil bit i guess...

but again, ring up just cars :)

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
