apparently they have allocated points associated with certain mods eg. 50 points for a/m zorst, 100 points for a/m rims and sh1t like that...not sure wat the maximum number of points allowable is tho...heh....who cares

im also 25yo and with suncorp and have a gtst r32...i think u did get a mong tard :P

Hrmm.. my previous insurance was.. Just Cars.. R34 Gtt, with minor mods 1515 for a year. Tho I was listed as Rating 1 with no previous accident history and no fines, blah blah blah. So I was pretty happy at the time :cheers:

Another company you can try is http://www.vigilins.com.au/ I'm not sure how good they are as I only found out about them recently. So no harm for you to try if you havent already done so. :D

Whats the best insurance people have found?

i had suncorp lined up about 9 mths ago they said i had to wait untill i was 25 and then they would insure me for a turbo import (skyline Gts-t 33) for $1000 bargin!!

now im about to get the car i ring up to make sure they will do it and the tell me sorry we only insure the r33 GT, GTS and GTR,  no gts-t, WTF!!!! :werd:  AND they tell me the skyline GTR is a non turbo!!

I asured them that the GTR is Twin Turbo so why cant they insure a single turbo

Wanker at Suncorp: "Sorry i can only insure whats on my screen and the Gts-t is not there"

So i have called just cars and they want $1200 and no pay by the month

Anyone have better insurance company?

Hey,

i've got a 93 gts t, 92 sourer insurered with shannons insurance for well under a 1000 bucks. around 600. mide u ive had another car with them for about 5 years and i'm 29 but over the years they've been really good. Shannons insure people over 25 with everything from hot rods, street machines, vintage, show cars, race cars. u name it

worth a look

Well I had been following this thread for a bit and thought I could not afford full comp, silly me.

I was with just cars for full comp but couldnt afford it this year so dropped back to fire and theft, now in the past couple days saw this thread and started actually calling up places and getting quotes, this and read that the theft is only covered up to and including $5000 with just cars, WTF!?!?!?

Anyway now happily with Suncorp, pay by the month, market value for damage and theft, although i didnt go the $300 more for the windscreen and car hire thing.

Thanks people! :D

  • 3 weeks later...

So i ring suncorp back 4 more times and they still tell me sorry we will insure your for a Skyline GT, GTS and a GTR but no GTS-T

Im just about to go looking for a skyline anytime now and im pretty pissed off that they wont insure me ( refer to the first thread )

I thought i'll try 1 more time and im not hanging up till they insure me! ( as lot of you guys said you have insurance with suncorp)

Just got of the phone 15mins ago with a quote number and 2 Authorisations from the guy on the phone and his boss to insure a skyline GTS-T with a few mods for a touch over $1000 ($1058) and its pay by the month :headspin:

Thanks too ya all for the info and the help :)

    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.
