  1. Look how Shauno treated his
  2. Twin plate clutch I purchased is a piece of sh1t. It's heading back to where it came from. No drags yet
  3. Anyone have anything useful to say?
  4. The only stupid question is the one you don't ask. I could be wrong but I don't think a Skyline boss will fit an S13. I just purchased a boss kit which will hopefully fit my 33 GTR while in Japan (try translating the product book from Jap to English, not good) and judging by the number of different kits there is a pretty good chance the S13 is different to the Skyline kit(s). In response to your question and this thread in general, I don't know if Autobarn/Supercheap sell them but if so, they should have a book listing what kit suits what car. Does anyone know how to remove the airbag wheel without setting off the airbag? When having the immobiliser fitted, the guys were saying to stay away from the yellow wire behind the dash as cutting that will set off the airbag. If so, wouldn't unplugging it do the same thing? Any help appreciated.

    Insurance - Suncorp

    Suncorp quoted me $1600 for a R33 GTR. Unfortunately I had too many modifications so they wouldn't cover me. Keep in mind location when looking for insurance. Some suburbs are considerably more expensive than others. I live in backwards hickville so theft isn't as much of an issue.

    Your Car

    While we're on Suncorp-Metway.... This is a rough paraphrasing of the conversation I had with them. Driving history, age, rating and mods carry points. Based on your age and rating you are given a certain amount of points. A bad driving history, speeding fines, accidents and the like consume some of your points. Different mods have different point values. Once your total points exceeds their predefined limit for your situation you are an unacceptable risk. Wheels and bodykits are included as mods. I couldn't even have mags on the car and not have them insured. Likewise with a stereo. Based on my history, even though I am 25 and a rating 1, I am allowed 2 mods. Each mod adds to the excess, the first mod adds $600, the second takes it up to $800. However, the premium was relatively cheap at $1400 (on an R33). From memory, I had a quote from Just Car Insurance quite a few months ago at $1700. I have a theory (cue x-files music) that others may be able to confirm or disprove. If you ring an insurance place with a car that is already modded rather than insuring a car and then modding it, you have more chance of getting insurance. It seems they are more than willing to get you through the door but once you are in, the door is locked. I could be wrong but that's how it seems to me.
