1997 stagea rb25det auto - $1150

1997 stagea with rb26 and manual $1200

thats from just cars for 22 year old, very good driving record, and 60% no claims.

couldnt believe its only $50 more for a rb26, just shows they dont have a clue  :D

note: both qoutes the car was valued at $20K

yours is RB27 isnt it?? :D

Would they not let u insure it for anymore than $20K or is that all u wanted to insure it for?

I'd try a couple more times to try and get a good quote, as that seems fairly high. For example I am 22, 40% NCB, and drive an R33 GTR with a few mods, and im only paying $1700! Car is insured for $40,000.

I am in the country, and i have a clean record, so maybe that has something to do with it?

Maybe try to get a higher no claims bonus? I joined just cars with 3rd party only (on my old r33 gtst) for 2 years, and then upgraded to comprehensive, and they convert over the NCB from third party to comprehensive.

yer thats all i said to insure it for, as i was in a hurry to get cover and i planned on taking it in for evaluation at a later date, but its getting abit extreme with the big single turbo and shit to pass as a stock engine :D

but i think you'd find the premium a little higher than $2400 a year.

seriously.

nah not neccessarily, depends on quite a few things. there a limited use policies, for example, which can make the premium much cheaper too....

Or it could be BS :D

Ahhh thats cool that Just Cars will do evaluations, I never knew that :)

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
