^ A stat dec is a doc that is bound by law to say that what you are claiming is not full of shit. Whatever you write on it is punishable by law if you are found to be making a false statement, so an insurance company has to take it as truth.

Ok it's been 2 weeks and rang up insurance to get the ball rolling. They asked all the same questions again, asked for the police file number, pictures and how many km it had. This is going to hurt me big time! I have owned the car for 7 years and bought it with 114,000km, last time i looked it had either 124k, 126k or 128k. It has never been serviced by anyone besides myself. In 7 years it hasn't needed any mechanical work so never seen a shop. How do i prove the low km?? I have no pictures of the dash.

The cars was only swapped to RACV in 2012 (along with everything else) and I asked if they had the details from then. Apparently they don't care how many km are on a car when it gets insured.

An ideas? Willing to do a stat dec (the copper in charge said to do this) but RACV say that isn't good enough.

Sounds like a pain

Mine was a 5 mins phone call with just cars and got paid out asap no questions

Just as a side note here.... What is Altona like in general for car theft etc??

I'm asking because I am thinking of moving out that way from Elwood. Compared the cost on an online insurance quote and for my cheap fire and theft insurance was only like $50 per year more.....

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • 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.
