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.

    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
    • To re-cap, I bought: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8G-Infiniti-Q50-Q60-2014_1601171829627.html?spm=a2756.trade-list-buyer.0.0.2cd476e9FTIlKE As you can see, if I bought 20 it was $653, but I bought 1 so it was $1,170. I was very tempted to buy 2 and resell 1 at 25% cheaper. @MBS206, I am not sure if they do a Kluger one, here is their list but it might be there under a global model name: http://www.lsailt.com/product/android-interface?page=1 Keep in mind these full android replacements have basically all the bits a phone does (cpu, ram, storage, wifi, bluetooth, usb interfaces) other than a screen (it uses a host), thus the $800+ cost. Android Auto screen mirroring is MUCH cheaper as it's just a cut down shell, input mirroring and output mirroring BTW I also need that "screen off" feature, it is much harder to see wildlife even if a dash is reasonably dark. Both the Fuga and V37 have display off buttons for night use, they just come back on for a second or 3 if you interact with it, eg skip a song.
