hey dude you should probbaly be getting your parents to ring around for you a bit, i mean i know they are not as dumb as they used to be with % of drivers but it does help a lilttle my insurance is in my dads name but i am %90 driver

also be carefull once you have asked rac or someone for a quote and they give u one thats it you cant go back and change it straight away, so when you ask your questions try to be hypothetical and don't give them names straight away untill they can give u some sort of ball park figure

I got my R33 GTST insured with RAC just 2 months ago for $809 p/a. Mind you I am an old bastid with 60% no claim.

Try one of these :

Harringtons :9388 1299

QMDN 1800 644 383

Shannons (02) 9958 7666 www.shannons.com.au

Torque Underwriting 1300 369 769

ALL-STATE insurance (07) 3205 3311

Suncorp Metway 13 11 55 www.suncorpmetway.com.au

Just Cars 13 13 26

Unique Car Insurance (03) 9898 9400

I think Torque gave me a quote in the same range as RAC.

however, RAC doesnt do imports anymore... ;)

wonder why? i would have thought the more on the road the cheaper it would be for them to repair all those fender benders!

:)

and besides, would you not be better off insured under your parents name? (seeing as they probably own it!) :eek:

one of the friends of the family is a manager for rac the reason they stopped insurance for imports is for parts they cant find them for imports (they must be ***n blind) but neways its alright for existing members as long as u dont let ur insurance laps so pay it on time. so for god4ther u r gonna have to go to a interstate company for insurance or there r a couple of companys a specialise in only imports cant remember company names but get on the net and have a search.

      r34's love to squeal

      By Nizzy_R34 · Posted

      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.

      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?

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
