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 ?

    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car.
