im just looking at some insurance options for myself to drive our skyline but was just wondering some of the companies everyone uses.

When my b/f & i purchased our Sky, we could only get insurance for him at the time. He has full comprehensive with Just Car - i dont think this will cover me, as he is 22 and im only just 18 last jan.

I dont have the cash to pay the insurance up front so need to pay it in monthly installments.

Can i get insurance through a different company than Just Car if its better? or do i need to get insurance with the same company??

Should the full comprehensive cover me??

We have a 95 R33 GTS-T Series 2

Any advice please!

Yea if you have comprehensive atm with Justcars for your bf, then if he says he has a 2nd driver in the car aged under 21, then it should be ok. Thought the premiums and/or excess will be abit high too.

Have a look around other companies. Im with famous as Robyn actually rang me up to organise insurance after i made a internet quote, just cars didnt and they IMO werent so good.

Free windshield replacement every year with famous :P

i'm wit just cars but yea i think u shud look at Famous & Classic as they mite be able to add u on da insurance & they also do have the pay as you go monthly option! umm I think Shannons do that too but i can bet ya that they will never let u add on as they have some very stringent policies, they also knocked me bak coz I'm 20 so well there u go!!! Good luck... :P

thanks heaps for all the help! i dont know where but i got told somewhere that we had to have seperate insurance cause of the ages but what u guys are saying makes alot more sence.

thanks heaps again!

u should be able to get both of u on the same policy it'll just bump the policy up because u r only 18, and u and your b/f would just have to split the difference, would probably be cheaper then having 2 policies, also how important is it to u to drive the car, 3000 is quite a lot to be able to drive a car,

just car is ***ed !!

I crashed my r33, there was about 7K damage, so it wasnt bad, it was towed to the smash repairer and it took 3 MONTHS !!! ***N 3 MONTHS !!! i payed about $800 for insurance while it was in the workshop !! ****ing pricks.

And to make it worse, cause my rims were from japan, they could scorse them so they gave me 800 for 2 of them. What the **** am i going to do with 2 rims.... and how the **** am i ment o buy a new set with $800..

JUST CAR INSURANCE SUCKS BALLS, as soon as my insurance contract runs out im going somewhere else. and to make it worse the guy i was talking to all the time was the biggest fag...

Assholes !

driving this car is pretty important to me lol so i dont mind paying as long as i know im going to be safe incase anything happens whether it be my bad or someone elses.

It was torture enough to have purchased the car and not be able to drive it cause i didnt have a valid licence at the time and didnt want to risk anything. now i got a valid one i dont want anything stoping me from driving our sky :)

    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
    • EMU Classic. For what I need it to do I see no reason to upgrade. Link and Haltech would both cost an extra chunk of money for a lot of unutilized features
