hi guys

i just rang up just car Insurance and found out that it will cost me $2300 to get full Insurance on my skyline, thats bullsht within 2years u will pay almost half wat ur car is worth. and i dont want to get 3rd party coz they wont insure my 3k rims or car sound system etc if my car is stolen. just want to know how much u guys are paying for full Insurance on ur skylines.

also if anyone can give me a list of Insurance companies that will Insure or cover imports.

thanks

How come everyone manages to get such cheap insurance?

I am 24, driving for 5 years, one accident. The cheapest quote I got was $1656 with Just Cars, including 60% NCB, but with an $1800 excess for accident or $1300 excess for theft!

cause you are 24. wait till you hit 25 and see what happens

u know, i've had enough of bull-shat this bull-shat that. if u're gonna calculate insurance as a sort of investment then u shouldn't be driving an import. you buy insurance as a safety measure. who cares what it costs ??!! if u cannot afford insurance, dont complain and get something else.

also, when you're figuring out an agreement value, dont be a top shit and expect "MOST" mods that u haven't spent money on to be covered. insurance companys are not brain dead thick heads. they roughly know how much a car is worth, they know half the mods on the car were installed prior to your ownership(by jap owner). if u effectively paid $15,000 for the lot, expect to insure it for 15grand, not a bizzare 30grand worth of mods+ 20grand car, totally 50grand.

as for insurance, shannons is great.

I recently joined up with shannons for my 32 gtr. Very competetive price. Im 23 and paying $1600 for full comprehensive cover.

i was lookin at shannons the other day, and was going to do an online estimate, but one of the first things i read was sumthin that gave me the impression you have to be over 25 to insure with them, whats the go? i'd like to go with shannons, they seem to be one of the best, but i thought i couldnt coz i was too young

shannons, $811 for the year, insured for $42,000 and every mod listed and covered. but im on extreme limited usage (under 4000kms a year) and i have my home and contents with them 2. my 94 diesel 4x4 hilux is $1000 more a year 2 insure!?!?!

Dude try Just cars insurance, im paying 950 for full comprehensive with rating 1.

I have an R33 4 door non-turbo (turbo was only 50 bucks extra) and have an exhaust, tinted windows, 18" rims, and stereo which is all insured in my policy.

I think ive done aight with my policy.

Regards Evan

    • Only thing I'd add...is on recommendation from a good diff shop, I've used mineral oil in my diff including the race car for years. The synthetics can be too slippery and glaze the gears
    • 75W90 GL5 is fine. If you aren't sure about the type get one with LSD additive. 
    • Because you're effectively rushing the shift and forcing it to go in - with greater leverage against parts that don't _want_ to go together. Short shift = forcing the gear in harder. Also Redline Heavy Shockproof actively says not to use it in anything with Synchros. Well, it says "not recommended" which is basically as far as anyone will ever say in a product statement to "Do not use" Generally the Redline makes the gearbox feel great... until it fails faster. https://www.redlineoil.com/heavy-shockproof
    • 99.9% of them are viscous diffs. The 0.01% are helicals. They were only option-able in the series 2, as well. I have redline heavy shockproof in my helical. It seems... fine? I don't think anyone is ever going to know until something really breaks and at that point I'm not sure anyone will blame the oil. I just chose it because it's extremely heavy duty and my car will see not-road-legal duty for it. I've also had sadness with various diff oils in the past sweating out everywhere and/or other 'fun' things, with clutch diffs. Given you have a 1.5 way on the shelf, I'd not even bother with the diff in the car and just get to tinkering with it. I would spend the $90 on oil toward the labor of someone else putting the diff in if time poor even lol.
    • I believe mine is helical and not clutch type. During drifting one wheel was spining as if it was open diff so bought kazz 1.5 way and has sat on my shelf for the past 5 years as I want to learn shiming process and do it myself   in meantime thought I change the diff oil hence post here. So any 75-90?   i am pretty sure r34 are helical not clutch lsd as standard . That is gtt ones
