Yeah...polite is that what they call it?!?!

I went through Australian Insurance Brokers (they basically find the cheapest insurance for you) and they ended up getting me a quote for $2800 with famous classic cars...i was impressed!! Especially since my next best quote was with Just Cars for 5k!

I don't think they care how much its modified as long as its street legal, and you aren't insured between 11pm and 8am if you leave your car parked on the street - in a driveway/secure parking/actually being with the car is ok..... :D

Our friend Robyn used to work for the brokers that i used called Harringtons. She knows her cars ok and u can tell she actually gives a dam about u and ure car. They do good deals but it looks like due to my recent claim i am automatically unapplicable.:D

I hope to hell SGIO dont turn me down next year;)

Guys,

I have emailled Robyn last week regarding discounts for Skylines Australia members! She is more than happy to consider discounts on your premium if your a member!

Don't forget to mention the good word that's spreading around about them and say your a Skylines Australia member too!

This not only will help everyone else in a skyline but also everyone here on SAU!

-Kym.

If they insure in Vic id be very interested when i get my knew car. If they can get it under just cars quote ($2300) for a $15000 R32 GTST, for me (20, 30% or 40% no claims i think, no fines, no accidents) im in for sure.

its not happening here in WA yet.. so we can't be "paying members" of a car club to get a discount can we ?

We are all still members, we own skylines, stick together, to me that's a club. registered or not.

either way Robyn will still do a discount for us!

ANyway, how do u become a paying member of SAU? Or is that not happening yet?

ur from VIC... this will be up and running soon... give us a little more time as we have a few more things to sort out til we start accepting members.

obviously everyone will have to refer to their respective state commitee to find out where they are in the process.

    • 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.
