That's what i'm trying to get across - pay a little bit more from the pocket in the beginning and get so much more back. Good insurance companies will not apply an excess or deduct any of your no claim bonus if you have details of the third party (who was at fault).

Just don't get caught out guys. :)

Actually all the "insurance" threads never usually have a survey of people's age/value/ncb details in it.

Cool thread man

Ps 22/Maximum NCB, $27k Insured, about $1200/year :)

QBE??? I've just went to ask them, and they told me they don't offer insurace service for import's vehicle...and they aren't cheap!!!! I'm trying to full cover my cheap Proton with 2 yrs NCP and they quote me 1100++!!!!! phew...

Anyone got recent prices for insurance on a R34 GTR value or say $50k mark?

I got a 03 350z and I pay $1600 with HBF 'full com'

insured value of $37k

i'm with justcars:

driving history: have made 1 at fault claim with in last 3 years, few speeding fines, no lost of license.

age: 29

car: r34 gtr v-spec

mods: 19" GTC rims, exhaust, full genuine nismo body kit, minor mods

security: multilayered eg, alarm/kill switch/imobilizer/steering wheel lock/lock up garage with electronic front gate

location:victoria westside

full comp: $1500 per year

excess: $2500

hope this helps.

with my claim last year justcars was perfect very professional and did all they can to get me back on the road but it did take ages to get parts from Japan (nismo stuff), note with justcars it's NOT choice of repairer. if you claim they tow your car to south melbourne (where it gets assesed) and have it taken to 1 of their repairers (normally the most complete and cheapest).

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
