well now that you have said that

i know for a fact that quite a few people who work for insurance companys go on these forums

and you never know they also could possibly come on here to check up on certain skyline owners if a claim has been put in?

But i would assume they would do checks.. And if you have a crash and they do some investigating and they find that out you will most probly be paying for the repairs on both partys yourself! - I wouldnt risk it

is there any chance of insurance companys finding out if you had lost your licence ....would it be a good idea to lie to insurance companys about the  loss of license in past years to save money or even to get insured!!!!!

if you have a parent, put the car in there name, your name secondary, and they wont ask

Insurance companies love attitudes like that !!

They will happily take your cash based on whatever you want to say and put on a form..

However, its once you try to claim on the policy (and the respective $$$ amount !!) that they will go over the details with a fine tooth comb.....and they will be most grateful for any excuse to not pay you.

If you have a read of the policy guidelines when you sign up - they are quite strict in regards to mods and roadworthiness..

In all honesty, Just Cars really walk the line when mentioning they insure modded cars (...fine print is as long as they are legal - and again according to the letter of the law none are, so... ??)

Bottom line - mention all mods, spend the cash and not only drive guilt-free but also with peace of mind knowing that you are covered financially..

:D

nope - you are suppost to disclose any and all information that may potentially affect the decision (read: premium) of the insurance company..

they usually mention this in the phone disclaimer if you are applying over the phone, or somewhere on the doco...

The insurance companies have been in the legal game much longer than all of us...dont try and take them on unless you have the law on your side..

yes they can check... but only if they are lead to believe that u have lied.

if u have lied u break the contract and u can be prosecuted by law..

...um...if its specifically mentioned on the form - and if its something the insurance company can use to void my insurance..

Hell yeah.

unlikely that they wont ask you - especially if its one of those "paperless" applications.

But - its your cash - its your choice..i personally cant afford a 20k defecit if i lose my car without any insurance.

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • 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.
