Last I heard Lumleys wouldn't touch the M35, not special enough or something.

I am insured with Shannons, around 1k and no lockup living quarters. Out in the rain with no farks given. They were fine with it.

My last one was insured by Lumleys. End of the day these guys just pick and choose which customers they want - same with Shannons.

Mines currently insured through Lumleys. Haven't had to speak to them, touch wood.

Everyone will be different, not much point in comparing premiums from what I've heard from people in the industry (who are active here on SAU, too).

Age of car, condition of the car, features and mods, location, driving history and driver's age, and usage all play factors in quoting premiums, so no two situations will ever be quite the same...

I used to have my R33 insured with Lumley Special Vehicles, when I got my R34 and just wanted to change it over they said that they have to close off my current policy and open a new policy.. BUT as it's a NEW policy on a SPORTS car, they cannot insure me anymore as they ONLY INSURE CLASSIC CARS NOW, sooo basically told me to go f*** myself!! It didn't make sense as they were insuring my R33, but their response was that they will continue to honor all OLDER policies until such time they are closed. Tried speaking to the CEO and basically muttered the same shite, so told them the go jump!! I did have insurance with AI for a while http://www.aiinsurance.com.au/ who weren't too bad. I'm with Shannon's now and it's up around the 1k mark Rating 1

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
