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 :)

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By Duncan · Posted

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
