What insurance companies are best to insure skyline with?? For an under 25 year old :/

thats going to be tough Kath. I dont know any insurance companies that are going to be cheap to cover skylines for under 25's.

Have a go at Just-Car and Shannons - but be ready for a not so pretty quote :unsure:

This

Third party minimum. Fully comp would depend on the quote and how much you can afford. Also no point insuring a 5 or 6k car for 2k a year. may aswell put that 2k into a savings account for an uh oh fund. Consider it your own insurance. Insurance is very dependent on personal circumstances.

Don't crash? Get a full comp quote and then go from there. It might be cheap enough on a non turbo etc. I had my GTR insured with Just Car when I was 18 and that was an entirely different story. Think $3k/year and like $4.5k excess. $5k if stolen lol. But the car was insured for 30k so I had piece of mind.

If I may be so rude, how much are you paying for the car? If it is under 7k I wouldnt bother with fully comp.

Yep just cars and shannons are the only ones that will look at you. Shannons you need to have the car in a lock up garage.

5k and Shannon's won't even look at me cos I'm 18... They were so rude to me. Like ohh we can't insure you cos your 18 have a good day. I'm like well then... Bum bums

I got a good quote for $1900 from nrma

Third party sounds like the go. Try not to crash it and save the money on insurance as a rainy day fund. Paying $1900/yr on insurance you're not likely to use seems pretty silly to me.

Go at your own pace, perfect oportunity to get some coaching too from a more experienced driver. Most of the guys wouldn't have an issue with doina a few laps in the passenger seat and helping with some pointers. Confidence and coaching help develop driver skills. That and a whole lot of practice.

    • Its also worth mentioning that 30 years after it left the factory and god knows how many missed oil changes since, there is every possibility that one or more lifters are ticking because they are sticky/gummed up. To resolve that you need to pull the cams then pull each lifter, disassemble, clean, reassemble, soak in oil and re-install, and they should come up good as new.
    • What air filter are you running? Is it a panel filter in the stock air box, or a pod filter? Is the air filter the type that is oiled?   If you unplug the IACV, what rpm does the engine idle at?
    • Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.
    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
