200sx insurance


Recommended Posts

Guest Chillgoon

I'm sure guys have asled this question before but i will ask it anyway.

I am looking at getting a 200sx. thought insurance would be cheaper cause its not an import but so far teh quotes i have got are over 2k i thought that was ridiculous!!

ie just cars and young and cool.

Anyone here have or know anyone with a 200sx that has got cheaper insurance whilst actually listing their modifications

theres diff between an s15 200sx insurance and an s14, which one are you askin about?

And as far as I know all the big players in the insurance industry won't touch an import so they'll insure a local 200sx. The bonus here is on road service, national coverage, and they rate you differently (higher) than the toher insurance companies.

The best thing to do is get a 200sx, have it for a year, get your rating thru that company, get your certification, then sell, get a skyline and insure it with the same rating. You might lose on the sell tho, but you'll make up for it with the lower amount you pay for the skyline.

Then again it might not work in your favour, get quotes for everything, with lower and higher ratings, look at the NRMA 2nd hand car reccomended pricing, and then estimate how much your car will sell for in a year, then do the number cruchin n see if it works out.

I used to pay around $5000 pa for my 180sx so I sold it n got an N/A r32 hehe (also coz of a license suspension etc) I now pa $2300 full comprehensive for a $13,000 car and a $2000 stereo system, and in both cars, the policy was completely under my name.

GT25-S13,

! have a white R33 and don't live in Iluka, so no that's not me :D The reason I sold the 200sx is it was a little too small for me, I am 6 foot and it had a sunroof, very cramped!!

Very good cars though, look cool, better than the new S15 in my opinion.

I have attached a pic of my old baby

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
