Has anyone in QLD insured their Stagea ? and with whom, Suncorp dont mention the Stagea on website.

My sisters stagea is insured through Just Car Insurance. I think she would have tried Suncorp first but not sure. I'll ask her in the next couple of days.

Cheers

I shopped around with my stagea and decided on Unique Car Insurance, was several hundred dollar's cheaper than my r33 was with suncorp, which is surprising when I listed the mod list, which was a lot longer than the r33 ever was.

I opted for the $14 extra for the windscreen cover and already had it replaced with no charge. I have been very happy with Unique, thier customer service is excellent.

They also are a member here on SAu and offer members discounts, how much I wouldnt have a clue.

SKA,

How much was your policy?

I still thinking about buy a Stagea and would like to know

My R33 gtst is thru Suncorp approx $700 a year full comp.

But it is stock...

I know Suncorp is trying to stay away from imports, but if you have other insurance policies, they will normally cover you

I have 3 cars, a house and boat thru them.

Just spoke to Suncorp with no luck

They have never insured a Stagea before and will not

The phone chick went and asked the insurance underwriters while I was on the phone

They had no details about Stagea's, so I told them approx $24k for a series 2 when she asked

Their reason for not considering it was it would be to costly to get parts

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
