There is so much info on our cars available for free, be it on this site or others, such as MyG37.com and the like. You just need to be prepared to do a little searching for it.

Otherwise, the lazy pay up. Simple! ;)

I agree, however there's a 'collector' in all of us - and some may see this of value (having an unofficial - 'official' - translated owner's manual) in hard copy form (opposed to printing off info on forums).

I don't think you'll find this book online for free. It is the one for our car.

Yes you can get the g37 and the like online.

$20? Makes your car more appealing to a new buyer when the time comes too.

For the resale appeal, I can understand that. Otherwise, I'm happy to spend that $20 on something else, like my whopping fat insurance premium for two cars coming up in a couple weeks. :/

$90 a month with justcar

Right. So $1080 a year with Just Car, for whatever the insured value you're referring to.

To compare with my policy with Shannons, two vehicles - the BA wagon insured at $6,500 and the V36 insured at $40,000 - a premium of $3060 for $46,500 total, so about three times your premium.

However, I get to choose my repairer and I also get first dibs on the car for a buyback if it happens to be a write-off. Just Car, being AAMI, has no such policies. There's a reason why it's so cheap. If I insured my Maxima with Just Car back in 2006, instead of being insured for $9000 including the modifications such as the MoTeC ECU and turbo bits, there's no way I would've seen any of the high value items back for me to either reuse or resell. In effect, for the $900 a year that I paid in premiums back then, I saw those premiums back after selling off the MoTeC ECU itself.

If I only had the BA to insure, then of course I'd go for the cheapest option just because the car means nothing to me. I'm sentimental about my V36 though.

It all depends on what you want out of your policy. Cheaper is always nicer but you have to consider what options you value that you may be missing out on.

HAH! If only! Late 30s here. Looking at your location, I'd say that's why you're paying $1200 less than me per year. Don't forget insurance companies also judge you by where you live too, even if you think it is a good neighbourhood. :/

Pfft? Me get offended about my neighbourhood? I've got other things actually worth giving a stuff about. I'll leave it up to the sensitive little princesses to get offended about people ripping on where they live. :)

Sigh...my 08 PV36 SP insured for $32k. Paying $134 per month with JustCars. I'm 28....how are you getting it at such a low price...

Shannons wont even talk to me...sadly.

Interesting... It's seems your insurance policy and mine are nearly identical... 2007 PV36 Skyline 350GT Type SP insured with Just Car Insurance for $30k @ $130 per month (including Rating One Protection)

PS: Nissan "Skyline" is not even available as an option to select on Shannon's Insurance online Quick Quote system... How did you insure your Skyline with them WogBoy?

Sikahalv. online quick quote, what's that?? I don't mess with that crap :-). I talk to humans! By the way both my vehicles are insured for a total of 90K. When I got my 370GT it cost me 50K (I've had it since 2009), so my ageeded valve is much higher.

    • I got back to Japan in January and was keen to get back on track as quickly as possible. Europe is god-awful for track accessibility (by comparison), so I picked up a first-gen GT86 in December just to have something I could jump into right away. The Skyline came over in a container this time and landed in early January. It was a bit battered after Europe, though—I refused to do anything beyond essential upkeep while it was over there. The clutch master cylinder gave out, and so did the power steering. I didn’t even bother changing the oil; it was the same stuff that went in just before I left Japan the first time. Naughty. Power steering parts would’ve cost double with shipping and taxes, so knowing I’d be heading back to Japan, I just postponed it and powered through the arm workout. It took a solid three months to get the car back on the road. Registration was a nightmare this time around. There were a bunch of BS fees to navigate, and sourcing parts was a headache. I needed stock seats for shaken, mistakenly blew 34k JPY on some ENR34 seats—which, of course, didn’t fit—then ended up having the car’s technical sheet amended to register it as a two-seater with the Brides. Then there’s the GT86. Amazing car. Does everything I want it to do. Parts are cheap, easy to find, and I don’t care what anyone says—it’s super rewarding to drive. I’ve done a few basic mods: diff ratio, coilovers, discs, pads, seat, etc. It already had a new exhaust manifold and the 180kph limiter removed, so I assume it’s running some kind of map. I’ve just been thrashing it at the track non-stop—mostly Fuji Speedway now, since I need something with higher speed after all that autobahn time. The wheels on the R34 always pissed me off—too big, and it was a nightmare getting tires to fit properly under the arches. So I threw in the towel and bought something that fits better. Looks way cleaner too (at least to me)—less hotboy, less attention-seeking. Still an R34, though. Now for future plans. There are a few things still outstanding with the car. First up, the rear subframe needs an overhaul—that’s priority one. Next, I need to figure out an engine rebuild plan. No timeline yet, but I want to keep it economical—not cutting corners, just not throwing tens of thousands at a mechanic I can barely communicate with. And finally, paint. Plus a bit of tidying up here and there.  
    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
    • I assume clearances were all a-okay?
    • Shock tower brace is in +5Kw....LOL
