Hmmm interesting... That'll definitely be the go for the R32 when I find one... Seeing that the only road time it'll be seeing is to and from the track and the odd cruise, comprehensive insurance is overkill.

shannons insure my r32 gtr, its on the super light use policy.... not more than 4000ks a year. only 800 notes though.

if i do more than 4000ks, it jumps up $300 to 8000ks. then a few more hundred if more than 8000 to unlimited ks.

perfect for me.

Im with Just cars, in Melbourne, R32 gtst, 22yo, lightly modded, rating 2 and i pay $1200 a year for an agreed value of $16000.

I am so glad i dont live in Sydney.

In Vic we have CTP like in NSW but do dont have a choice who you go with, its all included in the price of rego. (thats why rego is like $550 in here).

who would be a good insurer to go with.

mind you i'm mainly going to be usiing the car for track racing and a bit of weekend driving.

and i also know that many insurance will not cover for the track..

i is also got a bucket load of mods,

i sent a quote off to just cars.

also i am 22..

i'd probably want the car insured for say 30k

32 gtr

Wouldnt drive my cars unless they were covered by full comp, the GTR cost me 3200PA and i was 18, the GTS with the V8 now costs me 1600PA, no i cant afford to insure both thats y only one is on the road at one time and while the other one is off the road it is chained to the garage floor until one of them sells.

Thats with just cars by the way, they said under normal circumstances they would not have touched an 18yo with a 33 vspec but because i had the gts since i was 16 and had not made a claim with them they would insure me.

I'm not sure if just cars will do an agreed value on older cars.  I really had to argue with them for my 97 model line.  From my experiences (fairly limited) just cars have been the best and the cheapest.

They did it on my 92 gtst... Famous couldnt match just cars in my case

  • 4 weeks later...

im 23yrs old and just car was about $1100 including all mods, but then again i have a 4-door r34 gtt which is classed as a family car, my previous NA JZA80 insurance was $1300. All rating one and comprehensive. My brother is a rating 3 or 4 and hes s15 costs him about $2000 from 'young and cool'.

Fully comp..... A car worth more than 10k or so then fully comp....

My 4x4 us a little shitty and worth about 20 bucks so i just got third party fire and theft on it as its $150 bucks a year. Never know might come back to the car after fishing and it may not be there so $5k coverage for 150bucks with a 600dollar excess on it. Thats a bargin to me. The skyline on the other hand is 1400 bucks with a 2400 excess but she is insured for 30k. I understand the high risk, i do drive very safe. But im more scared of it being stolen than anything else.

So i answered fully comp as the line is my daily car.

    • 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.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
