hey.

just wondering wat peoples experinces are with insurance claims ie just car insurance and having a turbo timer on ur car.

will having a trubo timer void your insurance or something little like that they wouldnt really care less.

give us ur oppinions and experinces if anyone has had something like this happen to them,

cheers guys. Aaron

hey mate, im pretty sure turbo timers are all illegal, as if u have an accident and ur turbo timer stops the car from turning off for a min or so, can pose serious danger fro fire or explosions etc. There may be sum legal ones but i havnt heard of any. Sure others can verify if there are.

i would never use a turbo timer anyway

I have one, just not installed yet, but I do want to find out what the deal with them is. Here in WA the laws aren't the same, but I don't think there is a problem. Sometimes it would just be better to leave the car straight away instead of sitting in it a few minutes, it's really only when you are caning the car that you need to leave it for more than that.

You can listen to the noise being emanated from random people on the Internet, or you can ask the only entity that can give you an authorative answer.

Just call them up asking for a quote with a fake name, and mention that you've got one and what their policy is in regards to it.

People on here can say anything, but chances are they're not the one approving or denying any claims you may make in the future. And telling your insurer that some guy or girl on some Internet forum said they'd fork up is hardly going to sway them.

when i insured my car, i said i had the following items, blah blah. they said they would cover all my items listed, but i had to make sure the items are roadworthy and legal.

ohhh i got a question aswell, can an "item" be legal but not roadworthy ? e.g, neon lights are legal to install but cannot be turned on in public places. how would just car deal with the situation ??

Im sure someone is looking for insurance for their ride.

Find out what the deal is in regards to haveing non roadworthy parts on the car.Im sure the one answer should give the answer for all of our questions.Also,if the parts must be engineerd,why do they have those parts listed on their policy.

I had insurance with JustCar before. I had a turbo timer installed in my skyline. I just declare it to justcar and they are fine with it. Someone crashed into my car a couple of months ago, the JustCar staff came down to look at the damage, spotted the turbo timer and everything was fine still. Got my claim and case solved.

As long as you declare them, you are fine.

Cheers

    • I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.
    • One year is a bit concerning. Did you try contacting GSP? It says 5 year warranty on the box if I remember correctly. I'm also running their driveshafts on my S2 Stagea.   You could check the part numbers on Amayama for your year. Here's the link for my 1998 which gives the 39100-23U60 part number. Well, that and 39100-23U70. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/trans/391 What does it say for yours?
    • I ordered a GSP Front R/H Axle from here - https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-front-driveshaft-r-h-nissan-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-stagea-4wd#description It lasted around a year before one of the boots blew out. I'm lowered, but I have GKTech roll center adjusters. One year seems a little premature. I think I'm going to spend the extra money on an OEM cv axle this time. This website - https://tfaspeed.com/collections/nissan-stagea-wgnc34-x-four-parts/products/nissan-stagea-awc34-260rs-rb26-right-front-axle-drive-assembly Makes it sound like the readily available OEM CV axle will only fit 11.1999 Stagea and up (mine is a 2.1997 S1). The JustJap listing didn't mention any years or anything for the GSP axle. Amayama shows '11.1999' and up as well for that part number. As well as 'plastic boot type'. See attached picture. So I guess my question is, does that axle (39100-23U60) really only fit S2 Stagea? It's the front driver side. If it does, I'd love to buy that instead of rolling the dice on another GSP. I've found that OEM one cheaper here: https://www.partsfornissans.com/oem-parts/nismo-jdm-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-r32-gts4-right-front-axle-3910023u60 and here https://www.nissanparts.cc/oem-parts/nismo-shaft-ft-drive-3910023u60 Just a little confused because the JapSpeed listing for the GSP front driver axle doesn't mention any specific years or anything and it fit my S1 Stagea fine. So will 39100-23U60 fit my S1 Stagea even though technically it says '11.1999' and up? What would have changed? Thanks.  
    • Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.
    • Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell
