Too many variables to consider having owned 3x BNR34s myself located at different postcodes.

Companies who have insured BNR34s include Shannon's, Just Car, NRMA, Lumley SV and Dawes (through a savvy broker).

Don't forget that when it comes time to renew, shop around. You may get a better deal from a different company when the 12 months are up.

Terry is on the money. Too many variable's..

Your age

Your driving record - with roads auth

Your crash history

Where you live

What agreed value you choose will alter final sum

Daily drive or limted use policy

That said, I'd say $1500 - $3K would be the norm Per Annum.

I went with Just Cars, agreed value $45k, 1999 R34GTR with mods , $1900. I have 2 cars insured through them , 1 driver but no discounts available..

About to spend a heap on a build and I doubt if I can insure it for any more if I wanted to. I have a ***** star driving record and accident free, live in a safe area,car in a garage,no track work and an old bloke to boot that does not put a lot of Klms on a year, shat a young bloke that tracks must pay a fortune.

Tried Shannons before with my 350GT, about $400 more.

I will try some of the others Terry mentioned at renewal.

Hey, try nrma classic, vintage & veteran car insurance. If your car is 15 years or more in age (1999 = 15 year), and you drive it less than 9,000k's per year and it's not your primary drive you qualify. I just got my '96 R33 done today with $0 excess, $11k agreed value for $246pa, done from $1000, a great saving by any standards.post-119203-14080142173377_thumb.jpg

I decided to give NRMA vintage car insurance policy a go today. Managed to lower my insurance on my 34r vspec by nearly half! there are a few conditions one has to meet though

- car is driven not on a daily basis; must travel less then 9000km annually

- car must be stored in a secure garage (lock-up enclosed, gated property ie)

- Modifications are allowed but only covered to the agreed value amount

- driver needs to be over 25 with more then 2 years driving expirence and clean recent driving history

For those of you that can meet these criterias, definately worth giving them a call, good saving to be made!

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.

      ECU sees many times the speed than speedo does (R34 swap)

      It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.

      I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
