its not cheap, i pay $2700, but think about this, you pay $17k for your car, u would be crazy not to fully insure it, anything can happen, and now that there seem to be a few getting stolen either be able to afford comprehensive insurance or dont buy one at all. After all when you own a skyline, the price of insurance is nothing compared to the price you pay for mods and problems.

Forget the qoutes, theyre all garbish! Suncorpmetaway or what ever, qouted me $550 for a '95 GTS, and then when i listed what i had (suspension, exhaust, stereo, and wheels) they said, that i wasn't eligable for their insurance anymore! All the qoutes are pezent, they dont mean anything until the insurance company commits to it, and for me, even still being a NA they said doesnt matter, the fact its a grey import! and told me 2 forget it. (even for 3rd party) as a i result the ONLY company that would touch me was Just cars, $850 for fire and theft, unlimited mods as long as legal and just for 3rd party minus $150 off it.

Sorry but cheap insurance at your age? forget it. Unless your driving a barina:P

Dayne

full comp is a rip  

I don't want it till i am like 21  

Just drive safe never leave ya car so anyone can steal it  

Don't drive car if its unneeded  

Don't speed drift or b a full insuracnes doesn't pay out if u crash doing them anyway

dude i thought like that as well till sum lady hit me and i only had third party.....

you may be careful with your car, doesnt always mean other people on the road will be careful... you gotta think of all that as well.

as for the question, im 18 and on my P's, im with just car, i payed $647 for third party and i have the same car, ( mines got minor mods, pod filter n exhaust... nuttin major ), and if i wanted comprehensive which i am getting now due to last week, it'll cost me $3,500 straight up. just car will insure younger people with skylines, coz it didnt take me anything to get them to insure me... i rang up like 4 places previous to them and they pretty much laughed at me e.g

me: umm i wanna get insurance for my 94 skyline gts-t?, racv insurance dude: hahahahahahahahaha, only if you pay us like 8 gran.... me: pffft yeah right.

personally i reckon just car is good if your young and wanna insure a car like what we drive, only downside.... theres no monthly payments, its pay straight up or nothin.

Probably a 1000 reason's why it's cheaper..

As for insurance for 17 year old. They won't like you because you have no driving experience "on record" you could be the most amazing driver in the world.. unfortunately doesn't matter, your still only 17. I'm 22 and most places quote $2000+ for fully comp and that's with a 50% no claim.

All I can say is.. get 3rd party.. and be damn careful. It's not you - that you should be worried about, it's the other people with 3rd party that run into you.. than the shit hits the fan..

ohhhhh yeah, its what happened 2 me.... im still tryna fight it after a week now, still wish i coulda afforded full comp. but whats done is done now.

lol why is insurance sooo cheap in perth ?

eh not sure .. but when I got my quote, that's what convinced me to buy a Skyline.

Sure I love jap cars, but if it were costing me 2+K a year for insurance like what some of you guys are payin .. i'd say bugger it!

I just got my quote back from justcars:

r32gtst exhaust mods and aftermarket BOV, they quoted 660 for third party fire & theft...

what shits me is the excess. it says 450 standard + 400 for being under 22 and under 25 + 350 for endorsements.. that's a $1150 excess... maybe I wrote something wrong, or aren't reading it right..

What are the endorsements for?

BTW 450 + 400 + 350 = 1200

    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
    • OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
