he would have needed a receipt for alarm install to make a claim anyway..

i c ...

so if you get ur alarm installed, by someone who does alarms, but isnt an actual pro or a business, will a receipt from them still count ?

bit of a grey area for me! I just realised today that I didn't end up getting a receipt for my alarm install.. I have the box.. thats about it. They'd probably use that to try to get out of it (as usual).

Maybe you can give a workshop $20 to 'check' the alarm is installed properly & keep that as proof... no idea. :\ Let me know if you think of something better :O

Also depends on the insurance company but most companies that insure imports/$$$cars ask for proof eg Shannons.

*Actually from memory Just Cars said they need a receipt from a workshop with an ABN or some such. Don't know, ring yours anon & ask :P

think thats about all you could do

take it to a pro, and just ask them if they can say they installed it (by giving you a receipt) and they'd score some quick cash for doing SFA....only issue would be there'd have to be something in writing so that they dont have to like give you warranty on their install etc....

sorry to hijack your thread, but im still keeping an eye out in my travels

Thanks a lot for looking out, it counts.

In my experience with alarms and immobilisers, they have to installed by an accredited installer to count for insurance discount. The main reason for this so I was told from the insurance company, is they are deemed to know how to actually install it correctly as the are accredited and in some cases have been through training with the alarm/immobiliser company.

Hope the car turns up soon mate.

i dont think any of us were talking about discounts, as they seem to be non existant. ive gotten quotes with and without an alarm installed, and the price doesnt move...

but it lists on the policy, that a 2 point immobilser MUST be installed to be covered....thats whate we're all talkin about

nah your right, but it ses stuff along the lines of like 'illegal modifications' and 'legal car for your current licence'

i havnt read it in a while, just remember reading it in the toilet a while back when i got it :P

speaking of terms and conditions for just cars, i downloaded and read them...didnt see anything about the power to weight ratio, and claims not being paid because of it....hmmm

You may not have mentioned discount but this is what I was referring to.

yeah thats cool

the guy i get to install my hu's and my last alarm is a business, but he comes out to you etc....so i wonder if he counts as accredited hmmm

wont risk it on a skyline, ill get it done by a pro if thats what i have to do

when i bought my car it didnt have an alarm.. but the importer installed a alarm/immobiliser for me when i picked it up.

i dont have receipts obviously but on the cars contract it ses they will get the alarm/immobiliser installed for us included in the deal..

Do you rekon that would keep em happy evan though i dont have receipt ?

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
